Thonburi

Thonburi (Thai: ธนบุรี) is 'n deel van moderne Bangkok. In die tyd van die Koninkryk Ayutthaya het sy ligging aan die westeroewer (regterkant) by die mond van die Chao Phrayarivier dit 'n belangrike garnisoendorp gemaak. Dit word in die naam weerspieël: thon (ธน), "rykdom", en buri (บุรี), "fort".^[2]
