Thank you for watching!

Chinatown Bangkok is always busy at night from Tuesday to Sunday as Monday is compulsory rest day as required by the authorities for street cleaning. There's plenty of street food and restaurant-standard food by the street. There's Michelin starred hawker stalls too but I didn't locate them. Buskers keep the place lively as music drift through the air above the traffic and chatterings. Chinatown Bangkok is very bustling and dazzling! Visited by tourists and locals. I will be sharing a video on a food street in Bangkok that is bustling and almost solely visited by locals. This video will be shared in a couple of weeks while I clear my backlog of overseas videos.

Thank you for your nice comment!

Thank you very much AW!

Me too. Love this beautiful country too. Also glad that you like this video.

Are rice dumplings easily available in Canada? Do you have different flavours like those in this video?

@@SingaporeCityWalks yes the Asian supermarket sells it. It’s most similar to those ones you showed 😁💜 which is a good thing. Canada is getting more multicultural for sure 👍🏼

Thank you for your compliment 😊

Thank you my friend 😀

Thank you for supporting my channel, my friend from India ❤

Thank you Yosh and Iku for your comment. There are so many different flavours of rice dumplings. There's even a difference in the wrappings which I did not know till now. I first asked the young lady to introduce her vegetarian dumplings. On seeing her enthusiasm, I decided to ask the older vendors to introduce theirs. To my surprise, they were so friendly and obliging. So instead of simply showing dumplings all wrapped up and looking similar (except for the coloured strings), this video is able to show the different types of dumplings through the explanation by the vendors. 😀

Qu Yuan was a renowned poet and his suicide was recorded in China's history. So I think the throwing of dumplings to feed the fishes may have some truth in it. This practice of eating rice dumplings and dragon boat racing has survived centuries and is still practiced today. Dragon boat racing has become International events with Western countries taking part. You are right that older folks are the ones buying the dumplings. I hope this tradition will live on. My dragon boat racing video last year was well received. However, this year, I will be travelling in Sichuan and will miss the races in Singapore.

The selection of Bak Changs at Waterloo Street suits all budgets. From the affordable ones to the more pricey ones. Most of the vendors were happy to be recorded as they understand that this will in some way raise their profile. I have yet to try the bak changs wrapped in pandan leaves and the sweet-salty ones. There are so many types there.

Wow, 3 months in Taiwan. Where were you during the earthquake? I went there, a week after the earthquake. Saw many Japanese stores there. The Qing Dynasty ceded Taiwan (Formosa) to Japan from 1895 to 1945. So it's not surprising to see many Japanese establishment there.

@@SingaporeCityWalks We were in Taoyuan during earthquake,quite a shock, buildings damaged in Hualien. Somewhat same as the SF I experienced. About the ‘Japanese things’ even many Taiwanese smart guys don’t understand. I covered temples, traditional markets, street food, underground mall for my wife to shop her dresses. And, the temple festivals! I have been to Taiwan in 1978, saw ‘Republic of China’ in glorious days and now vanishing. Walk video is a great life experience. By walking we get to know the places much much better. Walk the talk. Videos refresh memory as we exercise through the streets. With latest 3axis camera, video while walking is so easy. Past 2 years I covered Msia/Spore, thorough. This year Taiwan, next year mainland including Hong Kong.

@@marktan3668 Just visited your channel. You have made many walking tour videos. It's good to see the daily lives of people on the streets. I'll go through some of them when I am free. Going to Sichuan for 2 weeks this coming monday.

Thank you my friend from Medan Indonesia ❤

Thank you @EllyDeGruyter for your nice comment. Your son must be doing well here as Singapore is a great city. I hope to visit Belgium in the future.

Thank you Ms Lilac. Please go and visit on week days. Its too crowded on weekends.

@@SingaporeCityWalks Are you going to Gastrobeats? 😊

@@MsLilac88 I went already. Had posted a video on it. Plenty of nice food there. czcams.com/video/vZXFR7mZeLc/video.htmlsi=EQznxQv9AYurPnQu

@@SingaporeCityWalksI already watched your recent video. 😊

@@MsLilac88 Thank you for your support.

This is a really creative and wonderful night festival. The light installations are so beautiful. Glad you've enjoyed it ❤️

This is a light festival that I look forward to every year. The light installations are very creative and eco friendly. You have described it very well as 'a gallery of innovation and community..." Iwagumi (Japanese rock formation) is Japanese art of aquascape where small rocks are are placed in tanks to form underwater landscaping. In iLight Singapore, they recreated this on land, a few thousand times larger. Walking through this installation gives a sense of awe and mystic. A wonderful creation.

I like many of the items. These 2 stand out for me. Iwagu - for the uniqueness - giant boulders in the heart of the city. And Kickit Team Tennis - for bringing strangers together to play a spontaneous game of 'tennis'. People pass by, play a game, and move on their way. This is something very lacking in our stressful society.

So much things are happening here and I am very happy filming all these. My overseas videos have to wait longer to be edited and shared. Travelling to Sichuan next week. Going hiking at Mount Siguniang (Four Girls Mountain 四姑娘山).

The giant boulders set against the city scape was very creative. Kickit Team Tennis is my favourite. People passing by just walk in, challenge one another, then walk away. For other installations, people just stand and look.

Thank you for you nice comment, my friend from Cambodia. I had been to Kulen Mountain and Lingam River. Thanks for sharing that.

Thank you AW.

I felt the same and decided to keep the footage intact. However, I think the problem is with his minders, not him. He is good in my opinion.

I have replied. Thank you for contacting me.

Sweet and nice roti.

Terima Kasi banyak banyak ❤️

Gokulakrishnan, thank you for you support. Did you watch my older channel "CM Chen" during Covid 19? I have started this channel now. I will visit Jurong West St 91, 92 93 later this year to see what's there. I am not familiar with that area. Nandri.

Yosh & Iku, thank you for the beautiful description of the video. May I know what you mean by Apple Man Carnival? Is this a typo?

@@SingaporeCityWalks Uncle Ringo’s Carnival is known for holding carnivals for children. “Ringo”means apple in Japanese, and it reminded us of a Japanese child calling Apple Man in Singapore. (It’s like a play on words….) haha Are you still in Singapore now? Enjoy your trip to Sichuan Province with your spouse. We also have expectations for video production as well.☝️✨ Yosh and Iku

@@Factory-qq2wk I see. Uncle Ringo Carnival is Apple Man Carnival! Going to Sichuan on 10th night, arriving Chongqing 1am on the 11th. This trip is free and easy as always. We will find our way along the way 😀

It's pet-friendly this year. The doggos are really cute.

Travelling again next week!

Please avoid the weekends. It's too crowded and spoil your enjoyment. You can film the light installations too and share.

Yes, there's much to see, listen, eat and play here. A really good festival. It's held in conjunction with i Light Singapore, another beautiful lights festival of sorts. Both GastroBeats and i Light Singapore are free entry events. We are so blessed here in SG.

I already filmed it on 2 nights in order to all cover 3 locations. Video is coming soon. Avoid the weekends and go on a week day to enjoy the installations.

Thank you for watching my friend.

I love Bangkok, the walks, the street food and friendly people. Yes, the city area looks really cool at night with the neon lights.

Changi Airport is really beautiful and functional. Glad that I live here and get to enjoy the facilities whenever I travel. Toni the robot bartender was very hardworking, serving free cocktails without getting any salary.

Oh I see. Thanks for the info and for watching.

Don't understand what you mean. Thanks for watching.

@@SingaporeCityWalks I meant; in your video, Chongqing looks better than Singapoo (Singapore)

Changi Terminal 2 is very well upgraded for travellers' needs and enjoyment. The snooze lounges are very nice touches. Just make sure that alarm is set and travellers don't miss their connecting flights! Changi is my favourite airport too.

I had filmed all that major attractions that I wanted to film at T2 transit. That's until I edit and realised that I left out one feature - Ella the Robot Barista. I'll leave it here and let other CZcamsrs and content creators to feature her. The Sunflower Garden is a nice open air touch to T2. The heavens blessed me in those few minutes, while I filmed the pretty garden. I'll be travelling again in a week, hiking in remote Sichuan with my better half.

Changi Airport is constantly evolving and improving. Changi aims to be Number One again next year for the 13th time. Yosh and Iku, your words are so poetic, they lift my spirit and imagination. Hope my future videos can take off on wings of expectation too ☺️

Thank you my friend.

I love the idea of snooze lounges. Travellers don't need to sleep on the floor while waiting for connecting flights. Can sit at Gourmet Garden to spot airlines if there's nothing to do. Yes, times passes quickly in such surroundings.

AW, thanks for watching!

Bangkok is a great destination for vacation. November will be a good time to go.
