In the rainy season, parts of the cemetery tend to become flooded; the best time to visit is in the dry season (around February, March or April).
In the research of this cemetery, the 1997 book "Bangkok: The Protestant Cemetery" by Justin Corfield, though containing numerous transcription errors, has been a valuable cross-referencing tool. Some given names (when the stone bears only an initial), Thai names and Chinese names come from this source. Other Thai and Chinese names are transliterated and may be erroneous.
The cemetery is located on the banks of the Chao Phraya River south of the Ramada Menam Riverside Hotel and north of the Asiatique night market. It's 1.75 km south of the Saphan Taksin BTS station along Charoen Krung Road. The entrance is a metal gate which is unlocked during the daytime. It's a short walk from the Wat Rajsingkorn (S3) riverboat pier. Buses No. 1 and No. 15 can take you there from the BTS station. It's also a brisk 25 minute walk from the BTS station. After 4pm, you can go to Asiatique and take the free Asiatique shuttle boat back to Saphan Taksin (Sathorn Pier), if you're not in a hurry.
