  • You can walk from Pratunam all the way to the Siam Paragon Mall under the cover of the R-Walk and Central World Skywalk.
    During the Rainy Season this makes it easy to walk around in the shopping district of Bangkok, even during heavy downpoor.

    I absolutely love the skywalk system. I think it was originally intended to link the BTS stations with nearby attractions, not necessarily to be a transportation route in its own right. But I think they've started seeing the opportunity, and are trying to connect a lot of the skywalk sections that are inexplicably unconnected. I'd love to see a skywalk under most/all of the BTS track, at least in "downtown".

      Yes it is correct, at the beginning they make the sky walk for connecting the BTS station to the shopping mall, and people like it, then they expanding to many area.

      It all started in early 2000's Central Group(Central world) in cooperation with Siam Piwat (Siam Paragon)and BTS sharing the cost to build the first Bangkok skywalk to connect each other. That time the news paper called it hi-so(high soceity) skywalk/bridge. I remembered reading the news. And now in 2023, skywalk are all over Bangkok.

    The City of London starting developing what was to be 30 miles of skywalks ('Pedways') in the mid-50's. It was to be an extensive system of linked Pedways. By the mid-80s, the scheme had effectively been discontinued, although some minor extensions were added in 2017. Many of the Pedways still exist, but the system is a mere shadow of what it should have become. It is brilliant that BKK has, and still is developing their system, especially useful during heavy rain and hot sunshine, as well as safer due to not needing to cross roads and transverse dodgy pavements.

      Yes, I absolutely agree! I am always amazed by supermodern architecture in Bangkok and surrounding green areas but when you make one step outside, there are pretty poor sidewalks. I think Bangkok would look so much better if they start to improve those sidewalks. Hope to see that improvement soon!

    Jeroen, did you ever consider buying and testing one of those folding bicycles from Lazada? I see a very good looking folding bicycles for 200 USD even less, and they come with disc brakes and shimano parts. What I am interested in is their quality, but for some reason I believe they are the exact same bicycles that are sold here in Europe for 1000 euros each!? If you didn't have a chance to test one maybe you can ask your bicycle expert friend from Decathlon about it? Or you can buy one for Mirela and test it in one of yours upcoming videos :) Thanks for nice vlogs, as always! P.S. If I am correct, you can bring folding bike in BTS and MRT right (in folded state)? Which in turn makes you a super mobile in such a huge city.

    westerners moved to Thailand and Bangkok because in their country, they living far away from the city centre, in the countryside or suburb which is very quiet and isolation. if you living in major city centre in Australia, Canada . The quality of life much better than Bangkok, no pollution, clean , beautipful park and people are more civilised than Bangkok. Australian cities full of international student, high end tourist, university, multinational companies with expat. In Australia, you find thousand of Thai working in massage parlour around the city and suburb and they never feel ashame walking in the street very confident
