Conservation procedures need to emphasized both physical and cultural significance. Tourism also contributes to the diversification of existing economic activity as it affects physical and cultural significance. Thus, tourism is now an important source for supporting the achievement of conservation. From the site survey in order to select the study area. It was found that Kudijeen community as a historic site in Thonburi is qualified and valuable for conservation and development. Then, the objective of this study is to investigate the cultural significance of Kudijeen community. The study area covers old building and a community with the original living styles in an area of 12.8 acres or 32 Rais. Historically, Kudijeen community was a community of Portuguese settlement from the Thonburi period. This community is surrounded by different ethnic and religious groups which possess their own culture. The site observation indicated the physical and cultural significance of the study area as well as its potential for tourism development. Consequently, the study has emphasized conservation for tourism. However, tourism has a number of impacts on the both the physical aspect and the life style of the community. The study proceed through the following steps. 1) The history and evolution of the community. 2) The cultural significance assessment in terms of historic value, aesthetic value, scientific value and social value including the impacts on the community from tourism. The opinions of visitors were sought on the potential and the readiness of the study area and the participation of the host population. The appropriate tourism character of the study area would seem to be cultural tourism. Finally, the researcher proposed policies for conservation and sustainable development of both physical and cultural aspects, based on architectural conservation, cultural tourism and sustainable development as follow: 1) To encourage public awareness of heritage; 2) To manage a dynamic relationship; 3) To ensure a worthwhile visitor experience; 4) To involve host and indigenous communities; 5) To provide benefits for the local community; 6) To advance a promotion program.

Data was collected by document research, observation, interview and focus group discussion. Results show that temples suffer from a lack of maintenance, poor service, inadequate tourist facilities, minimal community participation and inefficient public relations. A management model to combat these problems was designed by parties from each temple at a workshop. The model provides an eight-part strategy to increase the tourism potential of temples in Bangkok: temple site, safety, conveniences, attractions, services, public relations, cultural tourism and management. Keywords: management, cultural tourism, temples, Thailand, development 1. Introduction When Chao Phraya Chakri deposed King Taksin of the Thonburi Kingdom in 1982, he relocated the Siamese capital city to Bangkok and revived society under the name of his new Rattanakosin Kingdom (Prathepweti, 1995). Although royal monasteries had been commissioned much earlier in Thai history, there was a particular interest in their restoration during the reign of the Rattanakosin monarchs.

    INFRASTRUCTURE Bangkok has been undergoing rapid urbanization and industrialization since 1960. The increasing population is due in part to the development of infrastructure, such as road networks, real estate developments, land value, and a growing economy that resulted in expansion into the surrounding areas and the migration of people to the city from all parts of the country. 7>ÌiÀÊ ÃÕ«ÌÊÊ >}Ê>`Ê6VÌÞÊÀi> Õ°° Discovering the City the Discovering City the Discovering xxÈ°Ó Èää x£È°Ó xän°£ {nÈ°Î {n°È {ÇÈ°Ç {ää Óää ££°Ç È°{ n°£ ä ÓääÓ ÓääÎ Óää{ , - / *1 Ê7/ ,Ê-1**9Ê Ê"/ ,- 1- --]Ê-// Ê / ,*,- ]Ê"6¿/Ê 9Ê Ê 1-/, Source: Metropolitan Waterworks Authority /Ì>Ê7>ÌiÀÊ*À`ÕVÌÊÉÊ Water Management ->iÃÊÊ >}Ê>`Ê6VÌÞÊÀi> At present, the Metropolitan Waterworks To develop an effl uent treatment system, To build walls to prevent and solve Authority (MWA) provides the public and establish a “Flood Control Center” fl ood problems caused by seasonal, water supply in the BMA, Nonthaburi with 55 network stations, using low-cost northern and marine overfl ows in the and Samut Prakarn provinces at an treatment techniques and building Bangkok area.
