  • A Model for the Management of Cultural Tourism at Temples in Bangkok, Thailand
    Asian Culture and History; Vol. 6, No. 2; 2014 ISSN 1916-9655 E-ISSN 1916-9663 Published by Canadian Center of Science and Education A Model for the Management of Cultural Tourism at Temples in Bangkok, Thailand Phra Thanuthat Nasing1, Chamnan Rodhetbhai1 & Ying Keeratiburana1 1 The Faculty of Cultural Science, Mahasarakham University, Khamriang Sub-District, Kantarawichai District, Maha Sarakham Province, Thailand Correspondence: Phra Thanuthat Nasing, The Faculty of Cultural Science, Mahasarakham University, Khamriang Sub-District, Kantarawichai District, Maha Sarakham Province 44150, Thailand. E-mail: [email protected] Received: May 20, 2014 Accepted: June 12, 2014 Online Published: June 26, 2014 doi:10.5539/ach.v6n2p242 URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.5539/ach.v6n2p242 Abstract This qualitative investigation aims to identify problems with cultural tourism in nine Thai temples and develop a model for improved tourism management. 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.

This is an overview article of the 2011 qualitative !eld research by the Urban Research Plaza and the Thai Music and Culture Research Unit of Chulalongkorn University to be published in book form under the title Living Local Cultural Sites of Bangkok in 2012. The complete data set will be transformed into a website fortifying Bangkok’s cultural tourism to remedy its reputation as a destination for sex tourism. The !ve areas of cultural activity include the performing arts, rites, sports and recreation, craftsmanship, and the domestic arts. It was discovered that these living local cultural sites mirror the heterogeneity of its residents with their diverse ethnic and cultural backgrounds. There are local culture clusters of Laotians, Khmers, Mon, Chinese, Islam, Brahman-Hinduism, and Sikhs as well as Westerners. It was also found that the respective culture owners are devoted to preserve their multi-generational heritage. The natural beauty of these cultural sites remains clearly evident and vibrant, even though there remain dif!culties hampering their retention. The mapping of these sites are discussed as well as the issues surrounding those cultural sites that are in danger of extinction due to the absence of successors and other supportive factors necessary for their sustainability.

    Thailand Wat Nakorn-In Bridge and Connecting Road Construction Project (I) (II) External Evaluator: Keishi Miyazaki (OPMAC Corporation) Field Survey: September 2006 1.Project Profile and Japan’s ODA Loan Bangladesh Myanmar Laos Thailand Bangkok Vietnam Project Site Cambodia Malaysia Map of project area Rama V Bridge (formerly the Wat Nakorn-In Bridge) constructed by this project 1.1 Background A distinct lack of road capacity became apparent in the suburbs (which lie within the Outer Ring Road) due to the expansion of the urban zone in the Bangkok metropolitan area. Particularly in the area along the western bank of the Chao Phraya River from northern Bangkok to southern Nonthaburi Province, road congestion during the morning and evening rush hour became serious, because adequate bridges across the Chao Phraya River were not being built, even though farmland was rapidly being turned to residential and commercial use and traffic volume on existing roads and bridges was increasing markedly. In southern Nonthaburi Province, which is the site of this project, the only road bridges spanning the Chao Phraya River were the Phra Nang Klao Bridge toward the north and the Rama VII Bridge toward the south. Moreover, there were only two trunk roads which connected the Chao Phraya River and the Outer Ring Road, the northerly Rathan Thibet Road and the southerly Nakorn Chai Sri Road. For this reason, these roads and bridges experienced chronic congestion in the morning and evening; moreover, because no north-south trunk road existed in that area, vehicles that were bound north or south had to travel via central Bangkok, further exacerbating the traffic congestion in the metropolitan area.
