Khlong Ong Ang walking street to open every weekend from Oct 15
The Bangkok Metropolitan Administration (BMA) decided to open the Khlong Ong Ang walking street every weekend starting on October 15 to help boost tourism and help locals earn income.
Bangkok governor Aswin Kwanmuang said that the walking street will be accessible to tourists every Friday, Saturday and Sunday from 3pm to 8pm.
Governor Aswin added that the Khlong Ong Ang walking street will operate under strict control measures — meaning all vendors will undergo a weekly Covid-19 test. They will also be required to clearly display their identification and test results, The Nation reported.
