Ton Son Mosque
มัสยิดต้นสน
Bangkok's oldest mosque community, rooted before the city itself — rebuilt handsome on the Bangkok Yai canal.
Thonburi's oldest mosque, on Khlong Bangkok Yai since the Ayutthaya era — the graveyard holds centuries of Bangkok's Muslim nobility. Visit respectfully from the canal path.

Visiting a temple
- Shoulders and knees covered, for everyone. Sarongs are usually available at the gate, sometimes for a small deposit.
- Shoes come off before you step into an ordination hall — watch what everyone else is doing at the threshold.
- Most compounds open early, around 08:00, and close by 17:00–18:00; the major ones charge foreign visitors a small entry fee.
- Early morning is cooler, quieter and far better light than midday.
Check current entry fee and today's closing time when you arrive — we have no verified official site for this one.
