john luke Posted December 26, 2019 Author Share Posted December 26, 2019 I did not know where to put these photographs and finally settled on the Street Photography thread. The two ladies were distributing their leaflets, initially when I saw them at Chunky Monkey and Hungry Hippo. By the time I had got the camera out of the bag they had moved along down Soi Buakhao. I mentioned that I was a personal friend of @Yessongs and so they posed for the last few photographs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's even lower than this recent photo where 45 baht was the lowest. Can someone confirm? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

john luke Posted January 2, 2020 Author Share Posted January 2, 2020 Tree Town sort of continues. Quiet in the afternoon but I understand it gets busier in the evening. I don't know if/whether this structure (above) will ever be completed. A lot suggested that this place would fail, however whilst I have never seen it busy, I have never seen it empty. Chunky Monkey - never empty. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

john luke Posted January 9, 2020 Author Share Posted January 9, 2020 Sections of Beach Road, previously completed appear to be in the process of being re done. Effectively down to one lane or at best one lane of cars and a motor cycle lane for sections around Mikes Mall. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alcazar is still going as well , think they were the original one , I saw them in 1993 - surprised there is demand for two huge shows like this , maybe the Chinese tourists are the main customers these days , was always popular with the Russians 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably the same for the large number of tourists coming to Pattaya, so not surprised there's enough business to support two venues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john luke Posted January 10, 2020 Author Share Posted January 10, 2020 On this occassion, I was guilty of 'Cheap Charlieism'. I was forutunate enough to be passing the place just as the audience from one of the sceduled shows were leaving. I joined the exiting crowds and proceeded to the car park area when the performers allow members of the public to be photographed with them for a fee. A few years back it used to be 40 baht; now it appears to be 100 baht. I took photographs only of the performers so free for me. I am ashamed; actually I am not.
