Description

Khlong Sra Bua or the "Lilly Pond Canal" is a canal situated off the city island in the northern area in Khlong Sra Bua district. The canal splits off from Khlong Hua Ro, in between the defunct Wat Ngio and the ruin of Wat Si Liam; and has its mouth at the city canal (or Khlong Mueang) between Wat Na Phra Men and Wat Mai in front of the north-eastern corner of the Grand Palace. In fact this canal was a shortcut or "khlong lat" of the old Lopburi River. The canal was likely men-dug with as purpose transportation in order to counter the strong current of the old Lopburi River, which made a bend to the west near Wat Mae Nang Plum and ran in front of the Grand Palace.
