Chinatown

Chinatown

Since the first time i visiting Bangkok, Chinatown is on my wishing list to visit. But I found out so far and so troublesome to visit that place. So at last, I have to cancel my visit to Chinatown. Finally, I found out we actually can visit that place by using public transport. (details at bottom of the post)

The reason why I must visit Chinatown as they are famous with those super duper cheap accessories. And yes! They do super duper cheap but in wholesale quantities (10 pieces and above) So I do enjoy shopping accessories in Chinatown such as earings, hairbands, rings and so on. Besides, you also can find toys, children stuffs and handbags in Chinatown.

Seafoods

I strongly recommend to visit Chinatown if you really want to shop in bundle or huge quantities. Because like this you can only get cheaper prices. If you plan to start your small online business, you may find your inventories in Chinatown. But Chinatown is quite complicated and so pack with peoples. We been searching in Chinatown for about half hours only we able to find the exact market to shop as that whole area is Chinatown and you wouldn't get any helpful directions from local people.

The entrance to market

You can reach Chinatown by using public transport BTS and MRT. But their system is slightly different from Malaysia, you only tap once and can exchange from MRT to LRT. But in Bangkok, you cannot do so. You have to tap out if you want to exchange from BTS and MRT. I will explain the road from where I start. At Siam, used National Stadium BTS line and take to Sala Daeng station. Than exchange to MRT Si-Lom station (is a long way from BTS and MRT, you may follow the crowd) to reach last station Hua-Lamphong station. When you reach you may follow the direction board (which direct you the correct exit way) and take taxi. It only cost about 150baht (if traffic jam).

Terminal21

Terminal21

Terminal21 is a 9 stories shopping mall which classified to different theme such as Tokyo, Istanbul, London and so on. It is located at Sukhumvit Road which you can reach by BTS.

Terminal21 is huge and each level have different theme according to country. Each level design according to that specific country especially their toilets. LOL. But I can said their design really attractive and will definitely fill up your memory cards.

Istanbul theme toilet

London theme toilet

Besides, I found out a super huge food court located on 5th floor. You can also found out so many restaurants, Japanese, Korean, Thai food and so on. So you wouldn't starving to find foods but you will take time to choose which restaurant to have your meal.

Terminal21 - Tokyo Street

Terminal21 mostly selling branded stuffs such as Nike, Adidas and so on. Women fashion located on 1st floor (Tokyo) and for men fashion is located on 2nd floor (London). Besides, Terminal21 also selling those local designer brand which I found out quite attractive.

I will introduce a nice restaurant in Terminal21 on my future post.

Baan-Ying Cafe and Meal

Baan-Ying cafe and meal is a innovate Thai-cuisine restaurant. We decided to have our lunch (after starving for hours) which we found out quite interesting among those restaurants in Terminal21. Yet, this restaurant did not disappointing us.

The environment of the restaurant found out so comfy. I found out that this restaurant located at 5th floor which we able to watch sunset from this restaurant. But we not able to do so as that day the sun is too hot. Now I will introduce some food that we have in that restaurant.

As I know, this shop is famous with foreigners as their view from restaurant really nice and recommended. But too bad I can't able to enjoy the view as that time the sun is too hot. Another franchise located in Siam Square.

Be@rBrick World Wide Tour II

We are so lucky that we able to visit the Be@rBrick World Wide Tour II that held in Siam Center. We only get the news on first day of exhibitions. This exhibition will held for 3 days. (if not mistaken) This is a small exhibition which include 30-50 bearbricks. Although we can't get inside to take picture for each bearbrick, but we still able to take some special bearbrick.

Be@rBrick World Wide Tour II

Although I am not a huge fans for bearbrick, but all those bearbricks looks so cute with those special design or drawing. I even found my favorite character Mickey Mouse in this bearbrick exhibition. I had been the bearbrick exhibition in Malaysia, is huge and we able to take photo of each bearbrick. Besides, there are more bearbricks for exhibition in Malaysia.

Hey Mickey!

 I'm so lucky that I'm able to take some photos from far as my camera function able me to do so. (currently using Sony Alpha5100). The end for this post. Will update more and more for my Bangkok trip. Stay tuned!

Mr. Jones Orphanage @ Siam Center

Mr. Jones Orphanage @ Siam Square

Mr. Jones Orphanage is a must visit cafe when travel to Bangkok. The one I visit is located in Siam Square (level 2 if not mistaken) It so easy to find as it located nearby Starbucks and Charles & Keith. Actually we did visit the one located in Thong Lor but unfortunately, that one in renovation and don't know when it will open back. So we decided to visit back Siam Square one.

Menu

This cafe famous with their environment which bears are everywhere. This one a bit small and limited spaces. But the reason I'm so in love with this place is their desserts! Trust me, their desserts really nice even a bit costly. (compare with other cafes) The price range is around 85baht to 150baht for their cakes and 100baht to 160baht for their drinks.

Blueberry Cheesecake

Red Velvet Cake

Strawberry waffle served with Vanilla ice-cream

Cappucino

 I have tried their blueberry cheesecakes, red velvet (my favorite), strawberry waffle and so on. My friend and I always order different cakes so that we can share different cakes in once. For those have budget, you may try our ways. This cafe don't have any main cuisine, so I suggest that you must have your meal before you visit this cafe. For drinks, just choose which one you like. For me, I will always choose coffee because their cups are cute.

Variety of cakes

I hope you can enjoy the environment there by taking plenty of photos!
