A fantastic trip arounc old Sukhumvit cinemas, the former Ministry Of Sound nightclub, Klong Prem Prison, Washington Square, Soi Wanglee, Bangkok's tram system plus a few other landmarks now consigned to the dustbin of history. Some were destined to fail while others were miscarriages of justice, like the disgraceful Soi Wanglee fiasco which should never have happened.

Hey Pat. Billy here. We met at Bang Sue station a few months ago. What ever happened to roller skating in Thailand? There was a roller rink in Chiang Mai. Why aren't Thai people into roller skating?

When I first visited Bangkok in 1979 I went to see The Deerhunter in a cinema on Sukhumvit Road (if I remember correctly). For the foreigners there was a large room with a glass separation in the back where they played the original English soundtrack. I was in Thailand for 4 weeks in January 2024 after an absence of 40 years. Many things changed. Luckily the food is the same!

I'm a native of BKK and I really appreciate you share many interesting facts I didn't know about my home city. Watching your videos is like going back to my history class at Debsirin school.

Pat---One of your best Vids ! For me it brought back so many memories for this old oil rig veteran. MOS was fun for a short time. My home was Washington Sq btw the Silver Dollar and the Lone Star circa 1996-2008. The owner of the Lone Star now lives in Houston, Tx, USA and runs a restaurant there with her daughter. A lively bar after 9PM. Bourbon St for Holiday dinners were the best. Deny's Bar was my 1st bar in BKK and I lost my heart, and a large chunk of money. to an Isaan girl working there. Thanks for the memories.

I like these vids where you find remains of the old Bangkok, very interesting.... Sad as well, at the destruction of Thai heritage..... as an aside, where did all the evicted Chinese end up? Scattered to the four corners of Bangkok or did they find a place to keep their community alive?.....

@BangkokPat 7 месяцев назад

They would have all ended up with compensation for their properties, quite a few were well off anyway so they just moved elsewhere.

Love this video! In the mid 2000s I used to go to a club called Bed or Beds? Had beds around the dance floor to lounge on. Really great place but I heard it closed down or maybe the concept just got old? Also there was a jazz bar called Brown Sugar. Didn't find it last time I visited in fact all of Sarasin Road looks quite different. Now that I'm thinking about it, in the early nineties the Dusit Thani hotel had a basement nightclub with a model spaceship that flew around the room and at the entrance to Sukhumvit Soi 10 or 11 there was a drinks bar built into and around a tree. Both it and its owner were landmarks. He once told me the richest man in Thailand had made his fortune selling the little paper umbrellas they put on cocktails. And I believed him! 😂 What else lets see, oh yes a roller-skating restaurant. This was perhaps a little out of town? Remember going with my parents as a very young child in the 80s. It was a huge sprawling open air restaurant and all the servers were on rollerskates. Good memories. 😊

I did not know that Bangkok had a tram system back in the days I learn everytime something new about the history of Bangkok. Nice to see the different between a street how it look before and how it looks now. Too bad some building are gone forever.

Thanks! 😃 No trace left of any trams in Bangkok. A few are on display in various locations but at street level, nothing really except along Lak Mueaung Road opposite the grand palace.

@newhorizon4066 7 месяцев назад

Re Old Cinemas, almost by default they turned to porn or "suck" (I leave that to the viewer imagination) theaters - which was quite common a phenomenon in SE Asia - as their last gasp before the bulldozer was called in. Phil Jablon (of the fascinating cinema blog mentioned above) did give the spotlight on one on Petchaburi whose cavernous lobby/first floor became the place to hang out for working belles in the neighborhood.

Every time I look at those old photos or videos of the Bangkok's bygone days, I always have a strong penchant to be teleported back in time and experience all of those establishments (some that I had known or visited) which have vanished forever (I'm sure I'm not the only one). It was a very different world. Another thought-provoking and evocative account of Bangkok's past. Great work, Pat!

@newhorizon4066 7 месяцев назад

The disappearance of BKK tram system seemed not to have bothered the populace too much because...Though that was before my time, my guess is who need trams when we have songthaews? (Though quite absent in Pat's vlogs,) they fill in the gaps left between city buses and pricey fai fa (Skytrain, MRT, etc.) A feature in the daily life of the poor/working class, they are also an quintessential part of public transportation, especially in the outskirts of the capital as well as in the provinces.

@AsiaInsider-eh7rz 7 месяцев назад

If you look at the segment showing the Trocadero Hotel, you will see that next door is the offices for BOAC (British Airways), and on the street is, I believe, an Aston Martin BD5 with UK Plates, and behind it, an Austin A40 estate car, 2 historic English cars, in the middle of Bangkok.

Thailand and Bangkok has every right to modernise and determine its own future but they do need to decide how many of its old buildings can they destroy. When we were doing our walking tour I was amazed at how many old beautiful buildings that deserved to be preserved and lived in. Tourists such as myself won't come back for soulless shopping centres. Looking forward to many more visits.

@antonkarridian2895 7 месяцев назад

I feel the same way about tourists and shopping malls. Here in the US, malls were very popular 20 years ago, before Amazon and online shopping. Do Thailand malls experience the same popularity in young people as we used to? One big draw is they are air conditioned.
