The Banglamphu canal as well as the waterway behind Wat Parinayok Worawihan in Bangkok’s Phra Nakhon area are being renovated as part of a project to turn the capital’s Rattanakosin Island into a tourist destination.

The renovation of the 1,500-metre-long Klong Banglamphu is 40 per cent finished and should be completed by July, the Bangkok Metropolitan Administration (BMA) said.

The BMA has also been calling on canal-side communities to avoid building structures and placing things too close to the banks and to stop throwing garbage into the city’s waterways.
