Exploring Sala Daeng in Samut Prakan
Posted on 29 July 2009
In an old guidebook to Bangkok, dating back about 150 years, the writer mentioned a "Red House" on the East bank of the Chao Phraya River exactly 2.3 miles south of Paknam. I have read quite a few contemporary accounts by travellers from the 19th Century that described their first arrival in the Kingdom of Siam. None of them mentioned a Red House. In fact, most just said that there were only mangrove forests and nipa palm trees on both sides of the river
