Supasin Prahanpap

Born in Thailand. I am a part-time traveller who loves to research deeply to make any trip unforgettable. I carefully plan out my journey so I can discover and experience the best local spots. Join me as I share my experience and stories on Phuket101...

Ari District Bangkok

        Chatuchak Park Bangkok

        Chatuchak Park

          Chatuchak Park in Bangkok is still one of those easy green spots we recommend when you want a quick outdoor break without going far. We went there recently and it was just a really nice, low effort stop.

          Fishmonger Ari

            Fishmonger Ari in Bangkok is a spot I have been to once, and it is exactly what it says on the tin. Right in front there is a big sign that says local seafood bar, and that vibe carries through the whole place.

            Wat Hong In Thonburi Bangkok

            Wat Hong

              Wat Hong is a peaceful temple on the Thonburi side of Bangkok that gives visitors a close look at everyday Buddhist life in Thailand. It is not as widely known as the major royal temples, which is part of its charm. The place feels quiet, local, and genuine.
