  • Talat Noi is a 200 year old neighborhood in the Bangkok Chinatown area. It is packed with amazing street art, street food and lots of great little alleys to explore the streets. Today I get lost (as always) on my own little walking tour while searching for some amazing Talad Noi street art and food. We explore the street and find the So Heng Tai mansion, a great resaturant and the Rong Kuak Shrine. I come across a couple or suprise locations and find something near and dear to my heart. Watch till the end for the best street art scenes.
    I recently moved to Thailand and am begining to roam the country while documenting my travels here on RUclips. Join me for my assorted adventures in the many different regions of Thailand.

      You know I started my little adventure in that neighborhood a little too late in the day, it was one in the afternoon. I’m also not a coffee drinker and I just had no time to sit down. But I’m sure there’s tons of great little places.

    Bangkok expands its street arts more and more every year. And it spreads out all over Thailand, Phuket, Hua Hin, Rayong, Chiang Mai, Chiang Rai etc.
    Personally I totally loves this kind of street arts (aesthetic style and not graffiti). It really makes the city more beautiful and enrich the community culture (because at China Town, they painted each block telling the lore of the old community.)🥰🌈

    • @LifewithSerg
      @LifewithSerg  2 года назад +1

      This was definitely one of my favorite little areas. I’m gonna have to come back and just walk around and enjoy it without thinking about having to make a video.

  • @themasterflexG

    The pink soup is called “yen ta fo (fo like number 4)”. The pink colour came from fermented bean curd, which is ruby red.
    Nice one per usual, Serg!

    • @LifewithSerg
      @LifewithSerg  2 года назад +3

      Yeah I was really curious where the color came from. Thank you for that information. Glad you enjoyed this video. Now I have to think of another video to make, lol.

    Hi Serg. That old trees, Its an ancient Thai tradition.
    Before religions had been existed, they believed that spirits dwelled inside those trees , rivers and other natures. That time no machine , handed-weaving was the only way to make clothes using a lot of endurance and time. Thats why clothes were symbolized of “love”. So wrapping the trees with colorful clothes mean exchanging loves. They believed that the spirit would give luck and wishes back. Nowadays, I thought it was just prevention from cutting down trees. 😂😂
    I really enjoy your vlog. Wish u have a great journey.

    • @LifewithSerg
      @LifewithSerg  2 года назад

      Thank you so much for the explanation about the wrapping of the trees. I find it to be a wonderful tradition. I’m glad you enjoy my content, there is much more to come. Thank you for your support.

    Street Art is so awesome, and the area look old and clean , l can’t believe, no one made a mess or graffiti those art works. They kept area quite clean. I am having fun getting lost with you. The red noodle soup , I had it here in LA , name “ Yen Ta Four” loving the historic old Chinese Temple and mansion. This tour is fun.

    • @LifewithSerg
      @LifewithSerg  2 года назад

      I know exactly what you mean! I lived in the San Francisco Bay area for 40 years, and although it would be hard to imagine art like this surviving, I’ve seen the number of pieces of street art that went untouched for years. Thank you for the clarification on the noodles.

    I've been to this Chinatown twice, it's a totally unique place in Thailand. Do check out the the backstreets opposite (or behind? Can't remember precisely) of Wat Mangkon station, it's a hidden gem. A big backstreets market, you will discover a lot of good foods (non touristy) there.

    • @leongcm1998
      @leongcm1998 2 года назад +1

      But do make sure you visit in the morning, stalls are usually closed around 3 in the afternoon.

      You are so right. It’s such a huge city that even someone who has lived here for 20 years cannot possibly know every little area. I really love exploring this fabulous city.

    • @LifewithSerg
      @LifewithSerg  2 года назад +1

      Oh yes! Now I remember. Also by putting these colorful pieces of cloth, it will prevent anyone from cutting them down. Is that correct?

    Hi Serg, love your videos. My Thai wife and I will be moving to Bangkok very soon. Like you, my wife and I are foodies but I'm not as adventurous as you to try street vendor food. Maybe our paths will cross sometime there. Looking forward to your next video. Joel

    @jamesmancusi6747 2 года назад +1

    We think very much alike. Two nights ago, my wife her friend and I explored the alleys off of Yarawat Rd. In Chinatown. Cobblestone streets, a multitude of ancient shops, stopping to eat at an obscure stall with chairs and tables set up on the street (I was the only farang in sight) - that, is how you discover a new culture. Carry on, sir!

    • @LifewithSerg
      @LifewithSerg  2 года назад +1

      Yep! You totally get it. This is the best way to discover stuff.

    The red noodle is red because they put red fermented red tofu in the sauce.
    You should seasoning it with the stuffs which they keep it on the table.
    For the rice , don’t need to do anything , just eat it…

    • @LifewithSerg
      @LifewithSerg  2 года назад

      So I put all the seasoning in the wrong dish? That’s pretty funny. I have a lot to learn, but I love the process. Food was delicious.

    The condiment on the table is normally for soup noodle.the condiment for pork over rice dish should be Nam Pla Prik (It was not brought to you however Nam Pla Prik could be in one of those 4 bowls of that condiment set)we do not up chillies in vinegar on it. I'm Suki restuarant provides only one dish -Yen Ta Fo- as a vegan food (Jay) .

Cooling towels also a must as you suggest because words cannot describe the humid conditions. You have to experience it, plan for it, and get used it.

    Per my understanding for the Tree with colorful wraps. There are many reasons:
    1) as you mentioned we believe that there is a lady spirit in there but mostly in Banana trees which we call Mae Ta Nee.
    2) Asking for number(s) for the lottery. Could be by scratching the tree using baby powder and they will either use their imagination to see something appears as digit(s). If you see baby powder on logs or trees, that most likely for lottery.
    3) If you see the wrapped tree with a small house with some traditional dolls, elephant, etc in there, it is most likely we believe either people death a lot or there is/are the guardian(s) at that location.
    It could be more believes but these are top 3 reasons for the wrapped trees/logs. I hope you enjoy traveling in Thailand.

      Almost every apartment building has a pool at some kind of a gym. I don’t know what kind of price range you have so it’s impossible for me to recommend. Also it depends what area you want to live in. I have a friend who is a condo sales agent, and we will be doing a video touring several different condos.
