The busy banks of the Chao Phraya river have become a centerpiece of Bangkok’s tourism boom. The $4.6 billion Bangkok Riverside Marketing Partnership announced this year comes in addition to the Marine Department’s multimillion dollar project to renovate and improve the Chao Phraya’s piers over the next three years. And at the heart of it all is the Bangkok Shangri-La, a five-star luxury hotel whose calm promenades and patios are the perfect place from which to watch the world of the Chao Phraya river roll by.
