Thai neighbourhood

Day 2 - 4th piece. This Chinese community was vibrant and full of life with shops and hawker stalls sprawling over the narrow roads. It was just next to the Princess Mother Memorial Park.

the canal community

Day 2 - 3rd piece. In the afternoon, I followed the group to visit a market only to find out that it was an abandoned old market in the Roang Kram Community. We then walked to this interesting open space in a dense residential quarter. The fish mural wall was a community project and there were so many big and small, simple and elaborated outdoor shrines on the right.

monastery

Day 1 - 3rd piece at the monastery area. We saw many devotees entering this monk's residence with offerings. He must be a very popular monk. The monk later came out of the door and conducted a simple ritual to bless a new car parked along the road where we seated. By now, I noticed Bangkok had all the wooden or metal posts with huge overhead cables tangling, running across everywhere.
