BKK Day 2

Day 2 is a Saturday, after a heavy breakfast in the hotel, we set off to Chinatown!! We took the BTS to Asok where we change Metro(aka MRT) to Hua Lamphong station. Thailand's Metro started around 4yrs ago and this makes travelling to places like Chinatown much more conventient and easy. At Hua Lamphong station, we took a tuk tuk to the shops in Chinatown. We tried once to walk to the shops frm this station but we got lost in the end. To save the trouble, we decided to pay ~50Bhat and sit a tuk tuk instead and it took just <10mins!>




Well, it started to rain and out of no choice, we hv to seek refuge in a shop. This is no normal shop...It is THE shop that sells alot of Disney stuff!!! We spent ~1.5hrs there to wait for the rain to stop and guess what? We spent ~1,500 Bhat just in the shop!!

After this shop, we went for lunch in a famous restaurant for lunch.



Fish maw soup, veggie, steam cod fish, roast duck etc cost ard S$40.


Some pics of the Chinatown. Lots of small stalls selling food etc. (For those weak stomach, advice is not to eat.)



This is the famous BBQ shop in Chinatown.

And this is our loot from Chinatown...
