Roaming the busiest commercial street in Bangkok's Chinatown: Yaowarat Road

In the heart of Bangkok, there is such a street: apart from Thai, the most spoken language is Chinese. The shops along the street mostly have Chinese signboards, and many of the merchants and customers also speak Chinese. This is one of Bangkok's hottest commercial streets: Yaowarat Road, also known as the famous Bangkok Chinatown. Bangkok's Chinatown is well-known domestically, probably thanks to the particularly popular movie 'Detective Chinatown' a few years ago, many scenes of which were shot here. The most common sight in Bangkok's Chinatown is the variety of Chinese restaurants, offering Beijing cuisine, Shanghai cuisine, and even more so, various styles of Cantonese cuisine. Besides the large restaurants, the street food stalls are full of life, and the aroma in the air is always attracting passersby. Chinatown does not prohibit vehicle traffic; on the contrary, it is a very important thoroughfare. During holidays, the tourists and vehicles can fill up the entire road, so if you're driving, it's advised not to come here, as you will definitely encounter traffic jams. Pedestrians must also be careful of the traffic. The lively scenes of Chinatown are also very suitable for photography. Bangkok is very hot during the day, and the temperature drops slightly after sunset, which is also a particularly good time to photograph Chinatown. When night falls, the neon lights decorate the entire street into a sea of lights. 🚇Transportation: Take the BTS to Wat Mangkon station, and Chinatown is just around the corner from the exit.
