China Town - Bangkok
written by evev on July 28th, 2008 (1 vote)

Chinatown is a colorful, exotic and active area all day long. Chinatown is known as Yaowarat in Thai language. This is a large community of Chinese people settle in Thailand. They still continue their own traditions and religious practices. Chinatown starts from the symbolic China Gate and follows mainly Yaowarat Road. Along the road there are lots of gold shops, which open at China Town for a long time.

The significance of Chinatown is Chinese food, eating places, and restaurants available along the long road which is very lively at night. Fruits, vegetables and other food are also imported from China and cooked by Chinese-Thai people. I love to go there in the night because it does not hot and almost restaurants always open at night. For travelers, here are Chinese style hotels very beautiful and unique to welcome you. Chinatown is very incredible, unless you see them yourself.
