CHINATOWN BANGKOK – A BANGKOK DRAGON WALKING TOUR

The head of the dragon welcomes us as we enter the Chinatown gate. I’m hoping it sprinkles us with an extra dose of luck it is the year of the Dragon after all.

Oyster Omelette – A Chinatown, Bangkok Specialty

The right place was one of his favourite Chinatown dishes, an oyster omelette. The omelette was stuffed with oysters and garnished on top.

Finding Peace Amongst the Chinatown Chao

I stand on the street taking a photo of an old Chinese building opposite. A car waits patiently for me to finish so he can move on.
