Located on the west bank of the Chao Phraya River in Bangkok, built in 1850 during the reign of Rama IV, the Chen family represented by Chinese merchant Chen Cixi in the Qing Dynasty. At that time, Chen Cixi set up Chen Qilixing to carry out Siam rice export trade, which served as a new rice factory and warehouse. The site was originally the land of the Prince of Thailand, including the hinterland of the river bank and the pier. In 1919, the 6,800 square meters of land was purchased by the Philip family and connected to the nearby Philip's former residence, so it was named LHONG 1919. The park is antique, the walls are artistic graffiti, and the background is photographed everywhere. 2. There are many Thai designer brands and handicraft stores in the park. 3. No tickets, free. The corridor is like a large three-housing courtyard. There is a huge incense stove in front of the main hall. The incense can be purchased at the service office of the next hall. There are huge Chinese traditional wedding clothes hanging on the left and right sides of the main hall, showing a happy atmosphere. Walking up the ancient century-old wooden ladder, the second floor of the main hall is the Jubao Hall. It is dedicated to the Mother of the Mother of the Queen who has the characteristics of the southern Weinan faith. On the beam of the Jubao Hall, there is a "hui this China" amount of money settled by Zhang Zhidong, a heavy minister in the late Qing Dynasty, reflecting the contribution of the Yuli family to China and Thailand. It is said that there were only three families who came to Taihua to receive this kind of amount, which shows the influence of the Philip family at the time. At present, only the rooms on the side of the main hall are open on the second floor, while the left and right side halls on the first floor have a variety of cultural and creative shops and restaurants, including many handicraft shops. Overall, the building of Lang 1919(LHONG 1919) is well preserved and the historical background is quite rich, but there are still places to be strengthened, such as the whole cultural and creative park does not have a commentary card, so the general public came here, in addition to taking pictures and feeling the antique atmosphere, it is difficult to have a deeper understanding. I hope that a guide map and explanation stone will be built in the future.

    Originally known as "Wang Lee Pier," it was built in 1919 during the reign of King Rama VI. The pier served as a trading hub and played a crucial role in facilitating commerce along the Chao Phraya River. In recent years, the pier was restored and transformed into a vibrant cultural and lifestyle destination.Lhong 1919 is now a popular spot for both locals and tourists to explore the historical architecture, indulge in various dining options, shop for souvenirs, and immerse themselves in the cultural events and activities that take place there. The site combines traditional and modern elements, creating a unique atmosphere that celebrates Thailand's rich heritage.

    A very cultural place, some small shops are also very special, there are food to go shopping and sit down, there are also cash machines and the like. I was very happy to spend an afternoon with my friends when I took pictures and bought things. 160 years ago, overseas Chinese came to Thailand to live in the commercial office on the banks of the Chao Phraya River. Now it is the Mazu Temple where the Chinese worship. Today, the Chinese renovated it and maintained the murals and relics left by the year. These actions express a Chinese overseas's thoughts on the motherland. I feel the hardships of coming to Thailand to do business.
