Kudi Chin
Kudi Chin (Thai: กุฎีจีน) or "Kadi Chin" (กะดีจีน), also spelled "Kudee Jeen", is a historic neighbourhood in Bangkok. It is in Thon Buri District, on the west bank of the Chao Phraya River, south of Bangkok Yai Canal. The neighbourhood, dating to the Ayutthaya period, includes communities of several faiths living in close proximity.[1] Today, it is best known for the Catholic community (mainly of Portuguese descendants) around Santa Cruz Church, but the wider neighbourhood also includes the areas around Wat Kanlayanamit, Kudi Khao Mosque, and the Chinese Kuan An Keng Shrine. Conservation and revitalization efforts beginning in 2008 have made the neighbourhood a cultural tourism destination.[2][3][4][5]
