Details Of Bangkok, Part One

So much to see in Bangkok, so much stimuli at every turn. Time to weed out the flash and give some props to some details.

A typical mix throughout the city, a curving canal, old, traditional and poor housing along the water, and the creeping, modern metropolis looming in the background.

The progress of the modern Thai Man, detailed on a metro pylon. So dapper! Watch 'em where you got 'em. A TV at a street side hawker stall, crammed into an underpass.

Big gate. Entrance, one of several, at a major construction site.

A tree grows in Bangkok. Barely. Royalty, faded. An old portrait still hangs in a building, now repurposed for storing industrial equipment.

Your Giant Development Here. A swath of land, waiting to sprout skyscrapers.
