Its name "Khlong Suan Phlu" (literally means "betel plantation canal"), called after a khlong (canal) in the same name that crosses in the northwest part of the area. Khlong Suan Phlu is the old course of the Pa Sak River that begins at Hua Ro, and then turned towards the Hantra River and then pass Wat Phanan Choeng, where it is referred to as the "Khlong Suan Phlu". It is a waterway connects the Pa Sak and the Chao Phraya Rivers.
In the Ayutthaya period, a large number of waterways and ditches were dug. Khlong Suan Phlu (otherwise known as Khlong Phai Ling or Nam Mae Bia[2]) was one of them.[3] Historically, Khlong Suan Phlu area was a large Chinese community. The Chao Phraya River near the canal mouth, it was the location of the houseboats of the Chinese immigrants. This area was believed to be another mooring point for Chinese junk in the heart of Ayutthaya. Nowadays, the only surviving evidence that it used to be a Chinatown is a Chinese waterfront shrine that is more than 600 years old.[3][4][2]
