About
Nestled in the heart of Bangkok, the Bangkok City Library, established in April 2017, stands out as a must-visit attraction for book lovers and explorers. With a stellar average Google rating of 4.5, this library boasts an impressive collection of English books, travel guides, and engaging activities. Visitors can enjoy a comfortable, air-conditioned environment with ample seating and a peaceful ambiance, thanks to the library's strict silence policy.
The friendly staff is always ready to assist, and the library is equipped with modern facilities, including spotless bathrooms, free WiFi, and accessible amenities for disabled visitors. Foreign visitors can easily gain access with a passport and a day pass, while Thai citizens enjoy free entrance with their ID card. Drinking water is allowed inside, making it easy to stay hydrated while immersing yourself in a good read.
Conveniently located near the Grand Palace and Khao San Road, and just a stone's throw away from a vibrant night market, the library is a perfect stop to relax and recharge. Before or after exploring the extensive collections, visitors can grab a bite or a coffee at the highly praised cafe 'Ded', which stays open until 21:00, the same as the library.
A brief visit lasting 1-2 hours is highly recommended, and every type of reader will find something to enjoy in this serene and well-appointed space.
