Is this area in Bangkok Dangerous!?

  • Is Bangkok Dangerous? In today's travel vlog in Thailand, I take a look at what is commonly called a slum area in Bangkok. Many people think Bangkok has dangerous areas and these "slum" areas should be avoided. I personally love visiting these neighborhoods, because I find the people inside are always so kind and friendly. I am often surprised by people warning me that I should avoid these "dangerous areas" in Bangkok because I don't find them dangerous at all!

    Looks like a blast. Just got home from Thailand a few weeks ago and tried to just wander around as much as I could. Such an interesting way of living, I find it so interesting. Met so many great people and everyone was always friendly smiling at me. On the last day in Bangkok, was staying near the airport and had to hit 711 one more time so I walked ab a mile down the road through a swampy area, water covering half the road. There were dogs all up and down, eating whatever they could find and a couple kids down the alleyway being bothered by some mean dogs. Kept walking and some guy yelled over to come hang out and have a beer, very surprised to see a white dude in that type of area and pointed to his daughters lol. A bit scary with the dogs, saw them attack a small dog but made it out all good. Love the street vendors over there too, they pop up out of nowhere. Can’t wait to go back, just hope that they can figure out more efficient ways to get rid of their garbage! sad to see their garbage filled ponds beside their houses. Beauty country though

    This reminds me of the neighborhoods I frequented through on my daily walk to school as a kid in BKK. Despite the visible poor conditions, Thai people are generally friendly and have a relaxed life style. If you say hi ("sawasdee kab"), people will often greet you back.

I am probably wrong but is this near Bang Sue station? My hotel was was just around the corner in Lat Prao.

    I suspect a lot of the spirit of this community has got to do with their hopes and ambitions for which they are prepared to work . This is in stark contrast with poorer communities in the west living off welfare that are just infested with drugs and crime . No welfare in Thailand , and maybe this is a good thing ?

    Love your video but as a Thai I hope you explain your subscriber too that those places are not a normal place for the tourists to go because it's a slum even the Thai people are generally nice but the normal Bangkok people rarely dare to go in those place too because it's disrespect them, and many of them do not want to let other people know that they live for free in slum there, nice people yes! ,but you have to realize normal Bangkok people they never go, and most of them not a real local they came from another provinces and sometimes there are a lot labors from the neighbors country too that's really dangerous even for a Thai according to the news, I just worry about the tourist my friend, but if they know what they are doing like you do and still want to go to have a look, I'll never worry about it.
    Most normal Thai people live in a big soi that cars could go inside my friend like many shortcuts Soi you've been to or live in a single house or live in a villa house that never let other people go inside or beside the roads or live in condo or apartment or rent a house. But most place that you can walk down thorough their houses like that is a slum in Bangkok even most of the houses by a small river that many youtubers thought Thai people live like that but most of them are not the owner of the place my friend, they just come here and live.
    Thank you very much for a good video. Very welcome to Bangkok my friend.
