As an event designer from
the College of Architecture at Suan
Sunandha Rajabhat University—a
place with a rich history as the former
Suan Sunandha Palace—we focus on
blending the beauty of traditional arts
and culture with contemporary design.
Our inspiration lies in reflecting the
charm and heritage of Suan Sunandha
Palace through uniquely crafted
activities that bridge the past and the
present. The aim is to create immersive
experiences that allow participants to
rediscover the elegance and intricacies
of this historic site in a modern
context.
“Samsen Heritage
Walk” is inspired by the rich
history and cultural diversity of the
Samsen neighborhood, a place where
communities from different backgrounds
have coexisted for centuries. The tour
weaves together the architectural
splendor, artistic heritage, and
everyday traditions of the area,
offering participants a holistic view of
Samsen’s unique charm. By
highlighting local stories, sacred
spaces, and culinary treasures, this
experience celebrates the essence of a
community that continues to thrive while
honoring its historical
roots.
Embark on a cultural tour
through Samsen, where history,
architecture, and community life come
alive. This journey offers not only an
appreciation of the area's
historical landmarks but also an
immersive experience in the traditions
and stories of this vibrant
neighborhood.
