Walking street in pattaya means so many things to different people come and join me on my podcast and find out

Patttaya diehards will look at this title and say BS and to be honest my explanation for being there is somewhat lame. My aim was to scuba dive around the islands of nearby Koh Khrok and Koh Larn. Not the best diving in the world, but decent enough to tempt me away from a 2-3 day layover in Bangkok. The diving never happened because of a sinus infection, likely from the international flight into BKK Airport. Yep, the old "sinus infection excuse" but I did have to go to the hospital to get checked out. Aside from that, I was able to venture out at night for a beer or two along Walking Street. My eyes nearly popped out of my head, when I encountered the wildest nightlife I have ever experienced. Hundreds of bars, cabarets of naughtiness, 24-hour nightclubs, live music, freelance ladies of the night, and even a Muay Thai boxing ring. You have to see it to believe it. Then you get sucked in to the electric atmosphere with the many tourists and ex-pats. What was once a quiet fishing village is now the craziest party town on the planet. Check it out on You Tube or Google, you'll see what I mean. I stayed 2 nights before I had to fly to somewhere a little saner and peaceful. If risque activities offend you, then don't go there. For me, not much on this planet surprises me any more these days. However, I can look back on this trip and smile a little. Pattaya is a city that ticks along like a well-oiled machine. Job opportunities and paying customers abound. Go there, I dare you.

Khao San Road has long been a key attraction to tourists trying Bangkok for the first time. It is a little like Pattaya's Walking Street or Phuket's Patpong, but without a big girly scene or ago-go bars. It is loud, touristy and has wide appeal to back packers, families and couples alike. But, in my The post Forget Khao San Road and try Soi Ram Buttri instead appeared first on Dan About Thailand.

TRIP TO DA NANG, AREAS TO RIDE SCOOTERs , WALKING STREET

I go to one of the wildest party streets in the world with ladyboys, prostitutes, ping-pong-shows, gogo bars and children preforming for pennies.  And then I also go to visit an orphanage - The Father Ray Foundation that is a total contrast to Walking Street. Both in Pattaya in Thailand. 

Jeg er både i en af de vildeste festgader i verden med ladyboys, prostituerede, gogo-bars, pingpong-shows og børn, der optræder på gaden for småpenge.  Og så besøger jeg et børnehjælp - Father Ray Foundation, der hjælper gadebørn, handicappede og børn fra fattige familier. En total kontrast til Walking Street og begge dele i Pattaya her i Thailand.    

Hue, Vietnam was the seat of the Nguyen emperors and was the imperial capital from 1802-1945.The Perfume River divides the North and South sections of Hue. In the north, the Citadel, a walled fortress and the remains of The Forbidden Purple City, home to the Nguyen emperors. The South contains modern Hue, much of which had to be rebuilt after the Vietnam War.As I passed by the Citadel and the remains of The Forbidden Purple City of the Ngyuen emperors I chatted about the recent intense weather.Pedal boats in the shape of swans are popular at rivers and lakes throughout East Asia and Southeast Asia. Someone asked about a man I met working at a restaurant that made me a bottle opener with a bolt and scrape piece of wood.The Truong Tien Bridge was designed by Gustav Eiffel, who was responsible for many bridges and buildings during the French Colonial Period. This is a wonderful setting at night viewing the multi-colored spotlights on the bridge from the Walking Street market. The current population of Hue is approximately 350,000.As we passed under the Trong Tien Bridge my boat ride on the Perfume River was coming to an  end. This was a fantastic experience riding past the green banks of the river seeing the Citadel and other sites from my very own chartered dragon boat.  Hue is a city that in a relatively short time has seen emperor rule, terrible loss and devastation from war, and an eventual acceptance of what had been seen by the Vietnamese Communist Party as the reminder of a feudel regime. Currently restoration of many of it’s historic sites is underway. A truly remarkable experience and perspective from Hue’s legendary atmospheric waterway-The Perfume River. 

This broadcast originally aired as a livestream on Periscope during my visit to Hue, Vietnam. Portions have been edited and some narration has been added for clarity.

Point de guitare ici, on change un peu ! Juste un itinéraire que l'on fait souvent lorsque l'on est à Pattaya, en Thaïlande... Là je le fais en voiture mais sinon on croise pas mal de Bath bus (ou "Songthaew" en Thaï, qui veut dire littéralement "2 bancs")...Ce sont des pickups, de couleur bleu nuit, avec comme une cage à l'arrière et deux bancs de chaque côté. Il y en a dans toute la ville, en permanence, jour et nuit. Il suffit de leur faire signe et ils s'arrêtent, sauf s'ils sont privatisés ou s'ils n'ont pas envie...et on sonne (plusieurs sonnettes à l'arrière, là où l'on s'assoie) lorsque l'on veut descendre. Ça coute 10 bahts ! Ils font 3 grands circuits différents dans la ville, ce qui permet de relier tous les points de la ville. Il faut donc parfois en changer. On aperçoit aussi des taxis normaux (ils sont parfois aménagés en boîte de nuit !!!) et des motobike taxis. Nous partons de Jomtien, quartier plus calme que Pattaya centre, pour rejoindre le Central Festival, en passant par la 2nd Road. Pour le retour nous passons par la Beach Road, jusqu'à la Walking Street... Je vous laisse vous documenter sur ces lieux si cela vous intéresse... Mais la ville comporte aussi des endroits plus sympas et très différents de la vie nocturne hallucinante de Pattaya comme le Khao Chi Chan (le Bouddah dans la montagne) et le Sanctuaire de la Vérité.

OK, I don’t want to mislead you, this is not the busiest street in Chiang Rai and there is lots of traffic in the city  but it’s easy to feel like it’s not busy in this town and surrounding area with a population of around 200,000. To start your exploration of the town there are at least half a dozen temples  worth visiting in Chiang Rai including Wat Jed Yod built in 1844. Jed Yod means 7 peaks represented by 7 chedis on the site. In keeping pace with the town the gatekeeper is pretty laid back and once you get past him you are greeted by an impressive giant Buddha in the main hall.Wat Jed Yod is probably the least visited of Chiang Rai’s most significant temples so you usually have lots of space to yourself. The temple is a copy of one by the same name in Chiang Mai which is a copy of an Indian temple, Mahabodhi Temple in Bodh Gaya, the very same spot where the Buddha found enlightenment. You will find some of the traditional features of Thai temples including the typical red and gold colors and naga serpents, above all a quiet spot for peace and reflection. The favorite part of my visit? Seeing the glowing sunset shine directly on an ornate window at Wat Jed Yod.Chiang Rai sees many people extend their stay in the town I think because there’s such a huge selection of cafes and places to eat for a town of this size. Once you’re done having a coffee, which could be from beans grown in Northern Thailand move on to the market which pretty much operates all day and through the evening. Perfect for self-catering you can get everything from seafood to cheap noodle dishes. Excerpts from "Chiang Rai, Thailand's Temples, Cafes, Walking Markets=Super Chill". 

31.O1.2016, 2h06 AM... Pendant ce temps à Vera Cruz...oups ! à Pattaya... Sa wat di krap ! Ça fait 5 jours que j'essaie de poster cette vidéo (super WIFI !!!). Voici une petite vidéo qui ne sert à rien...F*** encore une !!! Me voici de nouveau à Pattaya, Mike & Romy étant au Cambodge pour l'instant. Ayant oublié ma CB dans un distributeur (attention, ici l'argent sort en premier et ça ne sonne pas pour ne pas oublier la carte...je me suis fait avoir, heureusement elle est ravalée dans les 30 secondes. Puis j'ai fait opposition avant de tenter de la récupérer auprès de la banque...Oh ça va hein ?!). Je ne l'ai jamais perdu en France par ailleurs, RRRRrrr. Bref...ici j'ai quelques adresses fixes d'amis au moins pour me l'à faire envoyer, pas possible lorsque l'on est toujours en mouvement. Pas mal d'aventures depuis Koh Phangan ; Koh Tao pour la plongée (me voilà "Advanced Adventurer"), quelques petits concerts (me faisant pour l'instant économiser le prix de couchage ici et là et quelques "Chang"), une longue traversée de Koh Tao vers Bangkok (Taxi, bateau, bus et train de nuit), un Visa Run Pattaya/Frontière du Cambodge/Pattaya en un jour ! Puis plein de rencontres sympas, merci par ailleurs, I love you all émoticône heart Pattaya est souvent synonyme de grand quartier rouge avec ses clubs, gogos, beer bars, BJ bars, filles et lady boy partout, retraités européens avec des Thaïes, ses innombrables salon de massage, sa Soi 6, sa Walking Street etc... mais pas que ! Nous l'avions déjà évoqué avec le "Sanctuaire de la Vérité". Rencontre avec des musiciens Thaïs sur la plage par exemple, jam, échanges...superbe ! Je rencontre des musiciens occidentaux également...je vais jammer à nouveau d'ici peu si possible. Je suis aussi invité à boire l'apéro chez une nana qui tient un salon de coiffure ! (j'avais pas la GoPro, c'est con c'était drôle. Seul farang, 8 nanas qui braillaient entre elles, et du Sangsom…). Voici que je découvre un Pattaya à 18° déjà c'est super agréable (ça n'a pas duré) et beaucoup plus familiale comme Pattaya sud, Jomtien, le marché sur Thepprasit par exemple (déjà montré sur Voyage Roots). De grands complexes hôteliers, des condominiums bien sûr et pas loin de petites maisons avec des potagers, et des campagnes environnantes…des prix raisonnables également, c'est super cool, même quand on doit vivre sur une toute petite réserve de quelques bahts en liquide (je vous ai dit que j'ai paumé ma CB ?!). Justement, par économie, je loge au PS Guesthouse, un taudis, situé dans le centre (Soi Yamato, 13/1) et là c'est pas pareil mais bon, je m'isole un peu et bosse du coup (Guitare & chant principalement)... 300 bahts/nuit, seul, ça va ! (et un WIFI archi-capricieux). Petite pensée pour mon gros chat décédé le 9 décembre 2013, le morceau dans la vidéo était son morceau (Guignette) joué avec mon ancien groupe de compos (Vladimir Bozar'n' Ze Sheraf Orkestär - "Universal Sprache" 2010).
