Bangkok in weird times

Travelling these days is not easy. Despite the never ending bureaucratic processes of documents and random rules I didn't want to miss the chance of visiting my dear Thailand in 2021. And I got it.

I found Bangkok quite empty, which is good in some points. Always superhappy to be here. I took some photos with my mobile. Indeed mobiles now can take nice wide angle pics.

For your safety.

BTS has many more stations now.

City center with no traffic at all.

Because of low level of tourists great hotels are available at half price.

Praying with distance. And love.

This is one of the spots which comes to my mind when I think of Bangkok.

Some areas in Bangkok are so modern and clean now. Same level of other asian cities as Tokyo or Seoul. Indeed Bangkok has changed a lot since my first visit years ago.

Khaosan Road area is full empty. Quite sad and unbelievable. This was one of those places which never changes. Doesn't matter what you do or where you go, coming back to Khaosan was like coming back to the same place you've already known. I often could see the younger version of me walking along Rambuttri with no much imagination needed. But not now. This is checkmate. Time changes everything.

 

This photo shows well how is Khaosan now.

Chatuchak market is quite silent.

I see this all the time and still don't know what it is. I guess it solves all your problems at once.

Siam station not crowded.

Suvarnabhumi round shape says it's time to leave, for now.
