Thon Buri (Thai: ธนบุรี, pronounced [tʰōn būrīː]) is one of the 50 districts (khet) of Bangkok, Thailand. On the west bank of Chao Phraya River, it was once part of Thon Buri province. Neighboring districts are (from north clockwise) Bangkok Yai, Phra Nakhon (across Chao Phraya River), Khlong San, Bang Kho Laem (across Chao Phraya), Rat Burana, Chom Thong, and Phasi Charoen.

Thonburi (Thai: ธนบุรี) is an area of modern Bangkok. During the era of the Kingdom of Ayutthaya, its location on the right (west) bank at the mouth of the Chao Phraya River had made it an important garrison town, which is reflected in its name: thon (ธน) a loanword from Pali dhána wealth and buri (บุรี), from púra fortress. The full formal name was Thon Buri Si Mahasamut (กรุงธนบุรีศรีมหาสมุทร 'City of Treasures Gracing the Ocean'). For the informal name, see the history of Bangkok under Ayutthaya. In 1767, after the sack of Ayutthaya by the Burmese, General Taksin took back Thonburi and, by right of conquest, made it the capital of the Thonburi Kingdom, with himself crown king until 6 April 1782, when he was deposed. Rama I, the newly enthroned king, moved the capital across the river, where stakes driven into the soil of Bangkok for the City Pillar at 06:45 on 21 April 1782, marking the official founding of the new capital.: p.14  Thonburi remained an independent town and province, until it was merged with Bangkok in 1971. Thonburi stayed less developed than the other side of the river. Many of the traditional small waterways, khlongs, still exist there, while they are nearly gone from the other side of the river. In 1950, Bangkok had around 1.3 million inhabitants, and the municipality of Thonburi around 400,000. In 1970 Thonburi was Thailand's second largest city proper with around 600,000 residents. Wongwian Yai is a landmark of Thonburi District.

Platform, also known as Platform Wongwian Yai (stylized as PLATF@RM) is a shopping mall in Bangkok, located on the eastern corner of Wongwian Yai, on Lat Ya Road on the side heading toward the Khlong San District Office.

Prajadhipok Road (Thai: ถนนประชาธิปก, RTGS: Thanon Prachathipok, pronounced [tʰā.nǒn prā.t͡ɕʰāː.tʰí.pòk]) is a road in Thon Buri District, Bangkok. It begins at Wongwian Yai and runs northeast, passing Ban Khaek Intersection, where it meets Itsaraphap Road. It continues past Wongwian Lek, crossing Khlong Somdet Chao Phraya just before reaching the roundabout, and passing in front of Suksanari School and the clock tower at Wongwian Lek. The road then splits into three routes. One branch veers slightly left, passes beneath the approach to the Memorial Bridge, curves toward Wat Prayurawongsawat, and loops under the bridge to connect with Phaya Mai Road, an area known for another Buddha amulet market in Bangkok apart from Tha Phrachan, on the Wongwian Lek side. The second branch continues straight across the Memorial Bridge toward the Pak Khlong Talat area in Wang Burapha Phirom Subdistrict, Phra Nakhon District. The third branch leads onto Phra Pok Klao Bridge, which runs parallel to the Memorial Bridge. At the end of the bridge, it splits again into two directions, one descending into the Phahurat area in Wang Burapha Phirom Subdistrict, Phra Nakhon District, and the other veering right toward the Chakkrawat area in Samphanthawong District. The road also serves as a boundary line. From its starting point at Wongwian Yai to Ban Khaek Intersection, the side leading toward the Memorial Bridge is within Hiran Ruchi Subdistrict, and beyond that point it becomes Wat Kanlaya Subdistrict. Both subdistricts belong to Thon Buri District, while the opposite side is entirely within Somdet Chao Phraya Subdistrict of Khlong San District. It was constructed in 1929 as the first road in a project to build 11 roads on the Thonburi side (the west bank of the Chao Phraya River), intended to support the future growth of land transportation. In 1932, marking the 150th anniversary of Rattanakosin (Bangkok), the government under King Prajadhipok (Rama VII) launched a megaproject to construct the Memorial Bridge, connecting Phra Nakhon (the main core of Bangkok) with Thonburi. After its completion, the road was named "Prajadhipok" in honor of the king. Since March 2024, Prajadhipok Road between Ban Khaek Intersection and the area in front of Suksanari School has experienced traffic congestion due to the construction of Saphan Phut Station (PP24), an underground station on the MRT Purple Line extension (Tao Poon–Rat Burana, Kanchanaphisek Ring Road). As a result, traffic flow in the area has had to be reconfigured.

Wat Intharam Worawihan, also commonly known in short as Wat Intharam (Thai: วัดอินทารามวรวิหาร, วัดอินทาราม) is a third-class royal temple in the area of Bang Yi Ruea, Thon Buri District, Bangkok. This temple is recognized as "the temple of King Taksin the Great" (1767–1782). The temple built during the Ayutthaya era, this monastery with many names were "Wat Bang Yi Ruea Nok" (วัดบางยี่เรือนอก), "Wat Suan Phlu" (วัดสวนพลู), or "Wat Bang Yi Ruea Thai" (วัดบางยี่เรือไทย), etc. It was restored by King Taksin, who afterwards granted it the status of a royal temple. It was his favourite temple, where he came to stay overnight to meditate and observe religious precepts. In 1782, the temple was used to house the royal crematorium of the late King Taksin and his family, inside the temple there are also a pair of stūpa containing the ashes of him and his royal consort. It retained its status as a royal temple throughout the King Rama I's reign (1782–1809), with three high ranking monks governing the monastery. During the King Rama III's reign (1824–1851), a Mon-Persian descent nobleman, Phraya Sisahathep (Thongpheng) restored it once again and asked the King to grant it the status of a royal temple. The request was granted but to a lower status than before. It was named then Wat Intharam in present day. Wat Intharam is registered a national heritage by the Fine Arts Department since 1949.

Somdet Chao Phraya (Thai: สมเด็จเจ้าพระยา, pronounced [sǒm.dèt t͡ɕâːw pʰrā.jāː]) is one of the four khwaengs (subdistrict) of Khlong San district, Bangkok's Thonburi side (west bank of Chao Phraya river).

Charoenphat Bridge (Thai: สะพานเจริญพาศน์, RTGS: Saphan Charoen Phat, pronounced [sa.pʰaːn t͡ɕa.rɤːn pʰaːt]), or formerly known as Charoenphat 33 Bridge is a historic bridge in Bangkok, Thailand. It is the only bridge in the Charoen series located on the Thonburi side, the left bank of the Chao Phraya river in Bangkok. The bridge, crossing Khlong Bangkok Yai, is unique in that its two ends serve as connecting points between four subdistricts in two districts. On the southeast side, it reaches Thon Buri district, linking Hiran Ruchi and Wat Kanlaya; on the northwest side, it connects to Bangkok Yai district, through Wat Tha Phra and Wat Arun subdistricts. So the surrounding area also came to be known as "Charoenphat" in turn. Charoenphat is the third bridge in the Charoen series. It was opened in 1913 on the occasion of King Vajiravudh (Rama VI)'s 33rd birthday. Before it, there was Charoen Rat 32 Bridge in the Bobae area, followed by Charoen Sri 34 Bridge on Rattanakosin Island. The King personally presided over the bridge's inauguration on December 29, 1913. The bridge's original sculptures were far more exquisite than what remains today. At the centre of the bridge, above the nameplate, there was a sculpture of a five-headed nāga, reflecting that His Majesty was born in the Year of the Dragon. The bridge also bore His Royal Cypher, Vor Por Ror (ว.ป.ร.) The bridge has undergone numerous renovations, so that its original appearance no longer remains. Even the name has been shortened, removing the Thai number "๓๓" and leaving only "Charoenphat Bridge" as it appears today. At the Bangkok Yai end of the bridge stands an ancient mosque, Masjid Husayniyya, also better known as Kudi Charoenphat, a Shia Muslim mosque commonly known among Thais as Khaek Chao Sen. Its founders were Persian ancestors. Diagonally across from it, at the entrance of Soi Itsaraphap 19/1, there is also a World War II-era bomb shelter. Today, it exists only as a small room that is kept locked. In addition, close by Soi Itsaraphap 21, also known as Soi Wat Sangkrachai, there is a shortcut leading out to Phetkasem Road (Highway 4) via Soi Phetkasem 4, the longest highway in Thailand.
