Wongwian Yai BTS Station is located on Krung Thonburi Road near the intersection of Somdet Phrachao Taksin Road.
The Wongwian circle has a statue of King Taksin which was built in 1953 by an Italian sculptor.
For shopping there is a Robinsons and Wongwian Yai Plaza, if you are after Thai leather goods then Charoen Rat Road is the place to go.
Wat Anongkharam on Somdet Chao Phraya Road is a short walk away and has a small park with tropical gardens, or if you want to take a boat ride across the Chao Phraya there is the Tha Din Daeng pier and Khlong San pier, both have markets near them if you want some Thai food, although now with the Krung Thonburi BTS open it is a shorter walk from there.
