So this week i will show you some parts of the cultural diversirty placed in in this millionfold city. Between Chinatown and the river is an ethnic neighbourhood, a small part of a big city that you seldom hear much about. The Thais call it Pahurat. Westerners know it as Little India (on the first three pictures). Many indian, parkistan and nepalise people living and doing their business in this area. Lot´s of small indoor restaurants offer their exotic food at the alongside sois. The easiest way to get to Little India is by taxi or you can take the river boat to the Memorial Bridge Pier and Little India is just a 10-minute walk away. Or you can walk from the nearest underground train station, the Hualumpong MRT. Chinatown is 10 minutes away and from there it's another 15 minutes on foot to Little India. Chinatown (middle picture) is another experiance not to miss when you are in Bangkok. But last but not least my most favourite place to go is the middle eas oasis called Arab Soi at Bangkok Nana. It is a crossroad of at least two cultures; several arabic and indian restaurants in the area offer outdoors shisha (water pipe) smoking, while enjoying international sport and football and ofcourse theire nationaltypically food.
