After relaxing on Koh Chang, on 25.05. we set off for the last bus ride of our trip. The destination was the largest city we have ever visited: Bangkok.
On Sundays, the Chatuchak Weekend Market takes place. Initially, we were skeptical whether we should visit this market, as we were disappointed by the previous markets on our trip. The skepticism disappeared, because the market has a very good selection and is huge. It is the largest in Thailand with over 10,000 traders. We found our desired souvenirs and new clothes.
After finishing shopping, we headed to Chinatown. When we arrived, we had to realize that the shops are closed during the day.
So we returned later in the evening. For dinner, we tried something new: Birds Nest. A Chinese delicacy served as a soup with bird nests. The special thing: the birds build their nests from saliva π The bowl was expensive and the taste was quite plain. The texture of the filling was also unusual.
Afterwards, we let the atmosphere take effect on us.
