so this is the main entrance of chinatown from yawarat street as you see the street food
action has already begun if you love street food this is the place after sunset this is
one of my favorite places because the action is always on lots of people eating street food
and as you see we are still at the beginning of chinatown
and i don't know where to show you because lots of street food action is going on around but i'm
gonna try to show you as much as i can also you're gonna see the preparations for chinese new year
we are going to see lots of people tonight wearing red because that's the color of chinese new year
well my friends it's really lovely to be here at this time but it's super crowded and we have
to be very very careful while we are walking too many motorbikes tuk tuks taxis cars people
you can barely walk so i have to be very careful while i'm vlogging and talking to you
showing you around but i hope it will be a very interesting vlog so we're gonna be very careful
and try to show you as much as we can from the food the action the people
also the chinese new year decoration we're gonna be here on tuesday also to cover live the chinese
new year but now we are here to show you a little bit the atmosphere before the new year chinatown
is always busy it's not because soon chinese new year it's always busy lots of people around
a lot of people enjoying food taking pictures so the action is always on here but tonight is
special because it's couple of days before chinese new year and the decorations are all around they
celebrate around two weeks but the first day of chinese new year will be on tuesday so i will try
to cover that action as you see it's very busy you can barely walk and we are trying to work with our
vlogging camera and talking so that's mission impossible but i hope we will succeed
also there are some musical shows
so it's not only about decoration or food it's also about music traditional chinese instruments
and also if you want to buy chinese new year clothes you can buy it from chinatown
so these girls are wearing chinese new year clothes and enjoying their time
in chinatown yawarat and i hope that even it's too crowded and noisy you are enjoying this
well here a little bit less crowd that we can walk and breathe
and as you see from the pictures everywhere you go people are enjoying food even you can
enjoy some bugs if you don't like or like or want to try so the food options are everywhere
i'm gonna show you a little bit these roasted ducks that are very traditional and tasty in
chinatown yes these are roasted ducks and a roasted pig so if you want to buy portions and try
or maybe you want to try things you don't know what they are hello
so as i said once you are in chinatown the food options are a lot
especially at the weekends so if you want to enjoy to the maximum come after sunset and try
to be here maybe friday saturday and sunday there are lots of things i don't know what they are
but if you want to try you won't die so no problem always try new things
i'm trying to show you the food the mood the action and i hope you are enjoying this lively
pictures from live love thailand there are lots of options for street food in chinatown
and as i said my friend a little bit here is not crowded you can walk and talk
the previous pictures were so hard for me to capture and to keep myself among the crowds
with my camera but now it's little bit more easy to walk and talk here
and also along the seafood and the street food as you see from the pictures the colorful fruits
that are so famous in chinatown look at the size of this apples for example
the grapes the citrus fruits and as you see the prices are not that much cheap 100 thai baht
and also if you don't like to eat you can try the juice so chinatown is also
famous for its special fruits and the best thing is that the vendors are so cheerful
so let's walk see ya i'm sure it will be more active in couple of days once chinese new year
starts on tuesday but the idea of today's vlog is to show you a little bit around
before the new year and i am sure you are enjoying this lively picture from this beautiful place
