Bangkok (1) – Chinatown

Between the Wat Pho Buddhist Temple and the Hua Lamphong station is Chinatown.  This area is full of character and culture.  Vendors took up most of the sidewalks and passageways, allowing single-file walking only.  The short walk was double in time due to many stops to capture the moment.

Decorations festooned the streets for the Chinese New Year’s Eve that had just passed.

A congested side street

Bagging the fruit

Juicy fresh pineapple to help quench the thirst under 30C temperatures.

Teacups and Teapots

Roasting hazelnuts

I don’t remember if these fellows were reconing speakers or rewiring transformers

These drum masters were taking a break before their performance.

Whatever he was cooking, it smelled delicious.

Lots of different dried fish and seafood
