This is one weird area of Bangkok. It's got street robots.

  Growing up in the 80s I love  transformers. The models are spectacular. Like you said the symmetry and design is a work of art. Talking 80s, I love the resurgence of synthwave music 😁👌

  Wayne, I just spent two weeks in Bangkok this past September — and this is exactly the area I stayed in! It’s surreal seeing so many familiar streets and scenes show up in one of your videos.<br><br>Even though it was my eighth time visiting the city, I was genuinely surprised by how much I loved this part of town. It quickly became one of my favourite spots, clean, lively, and with instant access to the river, which added a whole other dimension to the experience.<br><br>There’s a beautiful, welcoming energy in the area. The constant movement, the clanging of machinery in the open streets, and the morning hustle all gave it such character. The Thai people, as always, were warm and full of smiles, whether I was out walking or grabbing a coffee on my early morning strolls down the river roads.<br><br>Speaking of which, I was amazed by how many street vendors were already setting up from 3 a.m. onwards! Just near the square you show at the start of the video, there’s a church with a school backing onto the river. I spent a few mornings shooting hoops on their outdoor court before school hours — and again, people would greet me with kindness, curiosity, or a simple smile as they started their day.<br><br>Thailand never fails to remind me of the strength of community, the beauty of kindness, and the spirit of everyday life. The more I return, the more I fall in love with it.<br><br>Thanks for capturing it all so well.

  Awesome. I used to have a love/hate relationship with Bangkok, but the older I get the more I seem to like it more and more.

  I quite like the awareness you had, to capture a crew on board the boat, jump out onto the jetty with rope .in hand

  Thank you for addressing the sickness from food poisoning. I was very curious about that.

  Google Song Wat Road, where the murals were. Big in history in Bangkok. <br>You were so close to Yaowarat Road in China town. We always stay in Talat Noi.<br>Regards<br>Nigel.

  Hey Wayne, I really enjoy your videos — they’re informative and I like your calm attitude toward life. I’ve noticed that you sometimes ask people personal questions, which is fine in Asian cultures since people are polite, but in Europe that might not be received the same way. I also noticed that when others ask you personal questions, you often warn viewers to be careful with them. Just wanted to share that this can come across a bit inconsistent.
