RE: Beautiful Sunday and Sublime Sunday - Traditional Bangkok Wooden Houses !!
I do love these fabulous photos! the monochrome is perfect for this walk through the alley. It is a shame that they are disappearing from the landscape. It is part of how Thailand was built and even though modern buildings are the hot item now, I can assure you as time goes by, people will want to bring back the charm of the old times.
Okay! Perhaps we all have different ideas of charm, but, I find these buildings mildly calming. Just walking through and seeing the people as they live and work. That is the way it used to be in the United States long ago. Well, in the last generation at least. In the town I grew up in Connecticut, the downtown buildings had businesses on the bottom and living quarters up top. It was not uncommon, but, transitioned over to apartments on top when I was growing up.
Thanks for showing off the fan shop and the true colors! That was pretty awesome and that shot was fabulous!

Yeah i do love it myself and it has got a lot of charm like you said and i do believe they will be around for awhile yet there are suburbs that will just never get pull down for high risers because the governments here do like to keep that part of Thailand alive and to many people to move and find replacement homes :)
Yeah i loved the colors in that fan shop was awesome :)
That is true! The government would have to move them to the nice section of town and we can't have any of that! (that was sarcasm!)
So we keep that kind of housing to put them someplace. OMG Right???
