Napping In The Aisle Is Not The Exclusive Domain Of Cats, So Some Humans Are Sleeping

Mae Klong Railway Market Is Famous For The Train Passing Right Through The Middle Of The Market

The Long, Quiet Air Filled The Market Held On The Railroad Tracks

The Train Would Be Coming In A Little While And We Would Have To Leave The Tracks, But The Shopkeepers Were Going About Their Business As Usual

Stores Were Open Right On Both Sides Of The Tracks And Shoppers Were Coming And Going On The Tracks

Smartphone Penetration In Thailand Is 70%, Which Is Apparently Higher Than The Penetration Rate In Japan

The Woman Who Noticed Me Started Laughing Hysterically, Pointing At Me

There Was A Restaurant That Was Not A Restaurant, Not A Food Stall, But Had Plastic Chairs On The Storefront

Passenger Buses With Seats Facing Each Other On What Used To Be A Cargo Bed Are Called Songthaew

While Making A Bouquet, The Man Was Holding A Large Banana Leaf To Be Used As Material For The Bouquet

The Man Who Methodically Laid Out His Tools On The Table Was A Shoemaker

Walking Through The Market, Where The Hustle And Bustle Seems To Have Hidden Itself Away Somewhere, I Feel As If I Am Walking Through A Town Built In The Depths Of The Earth

There May Be No Room In Thailand For A Certain Kind Of Self-catering Belief That One Must Cook One's Own Food To Be Healthy

The Age-old Sewing Machine The Woman Was Using Was Made By Janome Sewing Machine Co

Both The Maechi, A Buddhist Laywomen, And The Boy Had A Shaved Head

In Contrast To The Railway Market On The Tracks, The Center Of Mae Klong Has A Quiet Atmosphere

The Woman Was Slicing Fish On A Chopping Board Placed In A Bucket

Trains Do Not Come To The Mae Klong Railway Market Very Often, As There Are Only Four Round Trips A Day

The Woman Who Slept Soundly Must Have Missed The Opportunity To Sell Her Fish When A Customer Came In

Walking Aimlessly Through The Railroad Market, I Found A Woman Who Was Just As Lazy As I Was

I Looked Down At My Feet At The Railroad Track Market In Mae Klong And Saw The Rails Running Solidly

The Long, Narrow Track That Stretches Right In The Middle Of The Market Is Still A Working Track, And Trains Still Run Through It Several Times A Day, Although The Number Of Trains Is Low

In Mae Klong, There Is A Pedicab Called Samlor That You Cannot Find In The Center Of Bangkok

Some People Were Running Food Stalls On The Street, Some Were Selling Junk That They Didn't Know If They Could Use, And Some Were Selling Thai Buddha Amulet

Whether It's Your Mother Or A Loving Girlfriend, It's Not Much Fun To Be Accompanied By A Woman Shopping

I Don't Know If It Is Believed That One Can Accumulate Merit By Engaging In Temple Repairs In A Theravada Buddhist Country

In Front Of The Man In The Leadership Position Was A Traditional Thai Musical Instrument Called A Ranat

A High School Girl Waiting For The Bus Put Her Hand Over Her Mouth And Laughed

While Admiring The School Uniform With The Big Ribbon On The Chest, The Girl Noticed That I Was Looking At Her, Too

In Bangkok, Just Like In Tokyo, There Are Convenience Stores Operating Here And There, And Most Of Them Seem To Be 7-Eleven

The Side Of The Street Was Dotted With Town Factories

Many Of The Men Playing Thai Chess, Known As Makruk In One Corner Of The Park, Had Grim Expressions On Their Faces

A Group Of Men Were Playing A Game Of Thai Chess Called Makruk In A Park On A Weekday

Thai Chess Boards Were Placed On The Table Where The Men Were Seated

Makruk, Like Chess And Japanese Chess, Is A Board Game That Originated In Chaturanga In Ancient India

When I Travel, I Often See People Playing Chess, Shogi, Or Cards Outdoors, But It Is Always Men

It's My Personal Opinion That What I Consider Junk Scattered About Is Probably A Treasure Trove For This Guy

In The Quietness Of The Alley, The Woman Stood By A Blue-walled Window

The Buildings Along The Canal Are Not All Stores, But A Mixture Of Ordinary Residences

Maybe There's A Division Of Life Between Men's Barbershops And Women's Beauty Salons
