Cheers! This kind of content isn't for everyone. People associate Thai youtube with pad thai and bar girl stories rather than what l do so it's very niche content, limited audience but a great audience. 😻😻 Aiming for 50k subs by end off year which is great.
Pat's videos feels like a breath of fresh air and have such a calming effect so its almost as he could add the letters "ASMR" in the description text of each new release. Once again I am blown away by his meticulous research and ability to find sensible information about remarkable people, places and venues. And it make me once again miss the back alleys and lesser trodden street's of Bangkok.
So interesting to see the old village photos of neighborhoods before being transformed into skyscrapers. Thanks for the research and historical stories!
Another excellent video! Thank you for all of the effort you put into your work. Also, it was great meeting you when I was in town a few weeks ago. My walking tour was one of the highlights of my trip.
Thanks again for the excellent coverage of the Sathorn road area. Back in the mid 80's, I was a student summer hire at JUSMAG Thai and was given the task of painting the interior of the building that runs along the wall on Sathorn road. The lower level had a large room with a blank wall. I asked the Navy chief I was working for if I could paint the Thai and U.S. flags on the blank wall. It took some time but looked pretty good for an amateur. I am sure it has long been painted over but that was a lot of fun and will always bring back a great memory when I go down Sathorn.
Sathorn Road brought back memories for me. I got married to my Thai wife in the old Australian Embassy in 1988. Thank you for a other great video on the history of Bangkok.
Outstanding work. You continue to push the bar higher. Absolutely the best Bangkok YT channel for true lovers of the Kingdom🙏🙏 But please 😫 stop giving away our non tourist secrets🤣🤣🙏
Love the appreciation of the BTS guiderails. I remember being on the train one day and reminded of the intro feedback of Hendrix’s guitar with almost that exact same sound :) guess the tracks needed a little oil. Used to live near Suan Phlu - brilliant stuff Pat!
Thanks for the stroll around the old neighbourhood Pat. My son used to live off Suan Phlu before moving off Silom Road. Have walked Convent Road many times and smalls remains my favourite bar in Bangkok.
Very exciting video of this Bangkok Wall Street. Great job Pat, thanks for showing us your city with all the in depth knowledge from days gone by until current day, which makes it so interesting. 👏🏻👍
Thrilled. You have outdone yourself once again! Highly educational and an exciting piece of art in perfect production. Congratulations and many thanks again! PS: So the signature tune for Germany has been changed from the Valkyrie ride to the pow'r station style. 😉
Pat, it's getting impossible to find enough superlatives to compliment you on these great and fascinating videos, and you must really spend a lot of time researching and preparing. Plus your relaxed style is probably the best amongst those who produce Bangkok videos. Looking forward to part 2.
Wonderfully assembled from the visuals to the music, informative and engaging. So much more to your RUclips channel than eye rolling food videos. Keep up the great presentations.
I was living at the Sathorn District for over a year from 2022-2023, your video has just reminded me all these places especially the Suan Phlu area cause I often took the bus #62 and the BRT at Chong Nonsi to get home. Thanks for the great video again ! 👍
Nice one - I just did a big walk through Sathorn, Bang Rak and Chinatown this morning ... then back to Thonburi ... Also hit the wonderful old Hua Lomphong station that you've covered before ... Many memories hitting that station from Bangkok to Laos way back when ... Cheers, Steve @law_nomad
Sorry late reaction was a little busy with things. Great video Pat about Sathorn district a lot of history there I been their only a few time but never explore it good, but I will do it for sure next time. I been on the rooftop of Mahanakhon amazing view but that time I only had my mobile next I will take photo's with my Fuji X-H1 cam. Luckly I'm not afraid of walking on the class floor it really weird to look down and see every thing so small. I did also walk a little bit at the Sathon canal at Chong Nonsi Canal Park. Thx again Pat!
Amazing video! Great work, thank you so much for sharing, been driving and walking down Sathorn Rd many times, but did not know about so many interesting, historical fact's. 😊👍🏻
Thanks for covering the M.R.Kukrit Pramoj home-museum, which is every bit as interesting as the Jim Thompson home-museum. The only difference it's not swarming with tourists and photograph-taking all around the house is welcome. And there are no guides to hustle you around. It's as underrated as Thompson is overrated.
Always love to watch your videos on the history of provinces, streets, areas of Bangkok, also your story-telling videos. Always waiting for your next video. Just noticed you mixed up the pictures of The Guardian Arts Center Beijing and The Interface Singapore (23:55 - 24:04)
Nice to see this neighborhood again in such great detail and history. It's where I first stayed on my 3 month trip 2 years ago. It was my second time to Thailand since 1991. I plan on going again in October. Thanks for all your hard work Pat. Cheers!
Good video Pat. I could relate to mostly all of your narrative. Older expats all remember the Thai immigration office there before moving to Chang Wattana. It was the worse mad house ever😅!
from constantly binging this channel's content, i know more about bangkok (a city i've never been) than i do about my own city, which i've lived my whole life 😭
Fantastic Pat as per usual. The old, the new, the historical, always so interesting. As it turns out, in this part of town in one months time, so this vid is real handy to explore further than I normally would. Cheers mate. 🙏
Smalls looks good, the live music in the videos are quality and I'm still yet to visit. The owner was once part of QBar in Sukhumvit 11 so it must be of a good standard
Yep, all three, interesting ,educational & exciting. Love the old photos. Amazing how quickly this part of Bangkok has changed in such a short time. As already mentioned, it appears to be exponential growth, the real dramatic growth in the last twenty years. Sad to see a certain way of life's demise but "progress" waits for no one . Thanks for posting.
What a great area so much change in the last 30-40 years is amazing. Love the drone footage and the time lapse video of the build being built 👏👏. Very interesting looking forward to part 2 nice one Pat
Such a well-crafted RUclips channel! Learnt a lot from your videos - informative, educational and fun to watch! Also, deeply admire your hard work and dedication. You do deserve every like and subscription given the amount of effort you put into your work - so thoughtful and highly executed. Keep up the excellent work! I’m a (Thai) fan! 😊👍🏻
Liked this one Pat it was very informative as usual like all of your vlogs. Regarding the Kings Hotel on Sathon south Road, I stayed there for a month in 1975 for the Princely sum of just £30 👍
Wow! Absolutely loved this! and all you vids! Made me become a member immediately. I'm back in BKK in October to live; last time I was in CM for 9 years. Love Bangkok! Cheers Matt
Best historical videos of Bangkok for sure.
You deserve way more subscribers. Entertaining and very informative. The BTS vid was really useful. Thanks. BTW, love your cat.

Professional Quality every single time.
His video editing is really an inspiration.
Absolutely agree.
No one does this kind of videos about Bangkok dating back to decades . Appreciate all you have done to make these precious videos possible….
Thank you very much for the kind words!

Thanks and glad you enjoyed the video! And thanks for the kind words too.
So interesting to see the old village photos of neighborhoods before being transformed into skyscrapers. Thanks for the research and historical stories!

Yes, those are great to see. I wish I could have started my BKK adventure 50-90 years earlier, but you get what you get.
Another excellent video! Thank you for all of the effort you put into your work. Also, it was great meeting you when I was in town a few weeks ago. My walking tour was one of the highlights of my trip.

Loved going there for their BBQs. It was a bit of a step back in time even 35 years ago.
Sathorn Road brought back memories for me. I got married to my Thai wife in the old Australian Embassy in 1988.
Thank you for a other great video on the history of Bangkok.
Really enjoyed this. Looking forward to part two.

A tremendous programme, as usual. Your script with it's wry humour is the icing on the cake.
Cheers Carl🐱
I fell down on my knees and prayed when our guy Pat finally took a deep look into Sathorn District. I have purpose of life now!
Fantastic video. Thank for your hard work.
Been visiting Thailand for 30 years, Sathorn is usually our base where we stay. Great video.
I think it's incredible that less than a century ago there were villages and orchids in this area. Amazing Thailand.
Best video’s of bangkok 😊
Wow, I love that you included photos from history that are rare and never seen before.
I juat want to say THANK YOU, really enjoy your videos, I have been to Bangkok 3 times and cant wait to go back really really like this city!
Wow what a great video. Well researched, well edited and thoroughly entertaining. Awesome job Pat!
Hard to believe this area was all farmland and villages. Exponential growth, even in the 20 years since I first lived there.
Great video - upvoted
Love the appreciation of the BTS guiderails. I remember being on the train one day and reminded of the intro feedback of Hendrix’s guitar with almost that exact same sound :) guess the tracks needed a little oil. Used to live near Suan Phlu - brilliant stuff Pat!
Another great video on our amazing city of angels. Thank you, Pat 🙏🏽
Thanks for the stroll around the old neighbourhood Pat. My son used to live off Suan Phlu before moving off Silom Road. Have walked Convent Road many times and smalls remains my favourite bar in Bangkok.
Nice one again Pat.
Very exciting video of this Bangkok Wall Street. Great job Pat, thanks for showing us your city with all the in depth knowledge from days gone by until current day, which makes it so interesting. 👏🏻👍
They call it that, but the Stock Exchange of Thailand (SET) is near Sukhumvit & Asok, not in Sathon.
Excellent as always and nice to see you back.
Amazing content again Pat,,, loved the history on Kukrit.... you have a history lesson for the public soon,,, is there still openings?
Pat, another great vid.
Thank you for another great video. I really enjoyed it.🙏
Thanks Pat. Just wrapping up a 2 week stay in Sathorn, lots of places I’ve walked by but plenty of layers of detail from you 👍🏻
Simply the best….
Best of the best!
Thrilled.
You have outdone yourself once again!
Highly educational and an exciting piece of art in perfect production.
Congratulations and many thanks again!
PS: So the signature tune for Germany has been changed from the Valkyrie ride to the pow'r station style.
😉
Thank you for the useful information, Mr. Alain Delon
You never fail to provide excellent video and history of Bangkok. As Tina Turner would say you are simply the best. Thank you.
Soft Cell singer Marc Almond stays at the Lebua Tower hotel every time he visits Bangkok.
Pat, it's getting impossible to find enough superlatives to compliment you on these great and fascinating videos, and you must really spend a lot of time researching and preparing. Plus your relaxed style is probably the best amongst those who produce Bangkok videos. Looking forward to part 2.
Lived in Siri Sathorn for 8 months. Nice area.
Great👍
Wonderfully assembled from the visuals to the music, informative and engaging. So much more to your RUclips channel than eye rolling food videos. Keep up the great presentations.
Another interesting and well done video! Thank you!
Nice
👍Appreciated the history of how the Sathorn District evolved☺️
Thanks Pat.
I used to live in the neighbourhood. Brings back some good memories.
I appreciate the time you took to find historic photos .Great video.
Always looking forward to a new episode from you !!!
Solid.
Thanks!
Cheers and a big thanks for the support 😻😻
Thank you for an other great informative Bangkok video … looking forward to part 2

Brilliant video Pat as always !!! Thanks!!!
Thanks Pat, another fascinating video. Watching your sped up footage of Bangkok traffic is slightly nerve wracking though.
Don't cross the road when l speed up the clips!!
Good timing on this one, I am arriving for a 3 month visit next week and my condo is in Sathorn, first time staying in this area.
The best story.telling for bangkokian. Well.done Pat
Amazing video! Great work, thank you so much for sharing, been driving and walking down Sathorn Rd many times, but did not know about so many interesting, historical fact's. 😊👍🏻
I have said a few times already...best Bangkok Content, just incredible deep knowledge and storytelling. Love watching your content Pat!
Thanks Marc for the kind words. This and part 2 have been a marathon!
@@BangkokPat Excited to see it ! Have a lovely evening Pat

The only difference it's not swarming with tourists and photograph-taking all around the house is welcome. And there are no guides to hustle you around. It's as underrated as Thompson is overrated.
Sadly it has been closed for the last 2-3yrs. I think his achievements outweigh Jim Thompsons!
Great video
Will have to try trok silom.
Awesome Pat. Can't wait for part Two. All the best, Cheers
Excellent video

Thanks Josh! Annoyed l mixed those up actually, took me ages to find those pics!
Nice to see this neighborhood again in such great detail and history. It's where I first stayed on my 3 month trip 2 years ago. It was my second time to Thailand since 1991. I plan on going again in October. Thanks for all your hard work Pat. Cheers!

A wonderful, well done, educational, and interesting vlog as always. Thanks.
Great episode. Looking forward to
Staying there in February. Hitting the Jazz scene.
Smalls looks good, the live music in the videos are quality and I'm still yet to visit. The owner was once part of QBar in Sukhumvit 11 so it must be of a good standard
@@BangkokPat in February we will reach out to you , If Maybe May and yourself are free come along . Put a group together one night for smalls
Yep, all three, interesting ,educational & exciting. Love the old photos. Amazing how quickly this part of Bangkok has changed in such a short time.

Another fantastic video Pat, so much better than cost of living videos and 7/11 cheese toastie videos that seem to be the norm these days
Not seen a toastie video for a while but they are better if you take them home and grill yourself! Part 2 will be Sunday.
Danke!
Thanks for supporting!!
What a great area so much change in the last 30-40 years is amazing. Love the drone footage and the time lapse video of the build being built 👏👏. Very interesting looking forward to part 2 nice one Pat

Excellent and insightful video Pat. Makes me feel like heading down to Sathorn next visit and finding these areas that I know little about
Great volg again Pete. ❤
Just a thought …great work but maybe you could slow it down to explain more of the history…. This is good stuff for people living here. Thanks
As always. Amazing video. Thank you
Very nice video and pictures of Bangkok of old. You always do very good history of Bangkok Thailand. Thanks Pat.
Outstanding information, plan on visiting 2025
Excellent info. packed doc. video! Thanx, again!
Nice video
Very good video. I will see some of this area tomorrow!
Liked this one Pat it was very informative as usual like all of your vlogs.
Regarding the Kings Hotel on Sathon south Road, I stayed there for a month in 1975 for the Princely sum of just £30 👍
fascinating stuff Pat
Great job
Another great video. Thanks Pat, keep them coming.
Wow! Absolutely loved this! and all you vids! Made me become a member immediately. I'm back in BKK in October to live; last time I was in CM for 9 years. Love Bangkok! Cheers Matt
