As a pioneering project, TCDC is making it a mission to develop the potential area of Charoen Krung, its new neighbourhood, into a creative district. Charoen Krung is very special in both historical and cultural senses. Originating as Thailand's first concrete road, Charoen Krung developed into the country's busy commercial district and Bangkok's thoroughfare over 150 years ago. The arrival of TCDC in the area is a major catalyst in the rejuvenation -- one could say gentrification -- of Charoen Krung. Our final landmark brought us to Ban Oou Mosque in Charoen Krung 46.
