Overview

Bangkok hides many faces. Beneath its glowing temples and bustling markets lies a darker city — one built on crimes, executions, and shadows that refuse to fade.

The journey begins at Golden Mount, meeting at Romsai Coffee. From there, you’ll explore Wat Saket, a site with a grim history that shaped the city’s darker side. Next, enjoy a traditional dinner at Phi Rong Temple.

Each stop brings stories of Bangkok’s past, blending history, legend, and chilling accounts into a narrative you will never forget.
The tour continues to Samranrat Ghost Gate, historically the only exit for the dead in Bangkok. From there, you move to Suan Rommaneenart Prison, a former site of punishment, imprisonment, and executions, where echoes of horror still linger.

Then, visit Wat Thepsirin, once the main crematorium for criminals, outcasts, and the disgraced, before concluding at the Giant Swing and Wat Suthat, locations that hold centuries of rituals, accidents, and local legends.
