talad noi series

Talat Noi is a historic neighbourhood located in the heart of Bangkok, just next to Chinatown. It is worth mentioning that ‘Talat Noi’ means ‘small market’, but despite the name, there is no real market in this area. It’s a maze of narrow lanes lined with old houses, fancy coffee shops, and mechanic workshops packed to the ceiling with greasy engine parts.
