Thanon Kao sarn or Trok Kao Sarn as it’s known by Thai people, or Khao Sarn Road as known by foreigners either who have ever or never been to Thailand. It is the famous road for the tourist because it is an unbelievable street that you will see a lot of people from so many nationalities, illegal CD and tape, arts for sale, tattoos, so many things and also a lot of cheap hotel and guest house.
From the beginning of the road you will see so many kind of the shopping cart from the seller with the fresh fruits, Pad Thai, Spring rolls, Roti (Indian food made). Or also service like hair twining, nail painting, tattoo and sketch the pictures etc.
When you look up higher, your eyes will getting blur with a lot of advertise board from the hotels and guest houses for both sides. So many places for your choice depending on what type or price that you’re looking for. Although so many restaurants, pub, bar, long distance service phone call or exchange service along beside the road.
Oh! Look at that the internet cafe only 0.50 baht ($0.01 dollar) per minute, small bar beer beside the road, second hand book’s store, clothes shop and homemade shop they all stand beside the road sporadically.
The clothes shop in here they also have many choices from the expensive and good one like silk cloth to the cheapest one like T-shirt. The most popular one is pants or trousers made from cotton or even pants for Thai boxing. Prices for shirts start around 75 baht or US$2 and for pants maybe twice that.
All I talked about just from what I have seen and from my own experience. Because I’m the one who like to go always when I was there, I still remember when I studied in the university I would usually go there on the weekend with my friends for shopping and night party. One more thing is because of the price not too bad for Thai people and also close to where I used to live too.
Almost forgot,one more good thing for Khao Sarn Road is on Songkran festival.
Oh..I LOVE IT!!! So much fun…and if you’re the one who has been there already you will say the same thing.
All along the road will crowded with the tourist and Thai people from almost everywhere in Bangkok because a lot of them they know how much fun for Khao Sarn Road in Songkran day is going to be. It starts every year on 13th-15th, April and every night will be so much fun with splashing people all around you with water, putting the powder on the face. So please keep in mind if you decide to take a walk on these days that you should be alert and watch out for the gun filled with water and also powder. Because you might be the one who get soaked and white after the party done.
Let me know if you went to visit this road already…you can share your story with me
