Chatuchak

Chatuchak : 1 of the best place to shop. Everything under 1 roof (or roofs). Kichen wares, decorative, clothing, leather goods, puppies, kittens, some even say monkeys, snacks, fruits, food, soaps, massage oils are conveniently co-located. As the sun goes higher the temperature can be quite daunting. Do see some parents with their babies in a pram and the little ones start crying as well. Photo taking of some shops may not be allowed. Ask before you shoot unless you are interested to take a quick lesson in Thai colorful language. Be wary of pickpockets as well. Always bargain...

I spent almost the whole day in Chatuchak. I had to throw in the towel thus a nice shady place with garden seats near the bank area became my heaven. Muscle aching and body sweat formed a white wave line on my black shirt, just had to rest those legs. My mate helped me to massage both calves and the new massage oils seems to do wonder. I was on my feet again but it was closing time and we could see shops started to pull down the shutter or packing their wares up to their vehicles. A bit of praise, and the right timing sure did miracles to your pocket.

The best part was when we were about to depart from this wonderful place in the evening...
