storyThe walking street, and how a road becomes a floor
ถนนคนเดิน และถนนกลายเป็นพื้นได้อย่างไร
Ten Sundays in 2002 as a pilot; every Sunday since; moved once for the cables.
Takeaway · CC BY-SA 4.0What it is
A pilot called Ten Wonders of Lanna at Tha Phae ran on Sundays from 3 February to 7 April 2002; the municipality took it over weekly from 14 April, 13:00 to 22:00; it moved to Ratchadamnoen on 31 August 2004 when Tha Phae's cables went underground; about 1.5 km, 15:00 to 22:00. The Saturday street on Wua Lai followed.
The long version
Inference — it is the reverse of every other item on this site: a road taken away from vehicles rather than built for them, and the most-visited kilometre in the province because of it. Ratchadamnoen's one-way order of 2021 extends the same idea to the other six days.
