Bangkok
Chao Phraya express boat, a curry stall with three tables, and a rooftop that does not check your shoes.
Bangkok’s river is the through-line. The express boat is public transport, costs almost nothing, and gives you the temples and the towers in the same frame.
We eat at a curry stall with three plastic tables, then go up to a rooftop — but not the famous one with the dress code and the photographers. There is a better one, with a worse lift.
Express boat
Public river transport at golden hour. Temples one side, towers the other.
Curry stall
Three tables, four pots, whatever is left at that hour.
Night market
Not the tourist one. The one where people buy phone chargers and dinner.
Rooftop
No dress code, worse lift, better view.
