Traffic

The Bangkok BTS line lifts over the highway at the Sathorn Surasak intersection near our house in the city.

Surasak Station

Among the tree tops in a green city, the Bangkok BTS Skytrain arrives in Surasak Station while the station guard watches over waiting passengers.

Taxi Drivers on Silom

Playing checkers with bottle caps on a penciled checkerboard, these motorbike taxi drivers pass the time.

Tuk Tuk
These three wheeled open air'd taxis have 2-cycle motors which run on propane and they have a distintive snarl which you can hear all over Bangkok. We don't ride them much because they cost more than a taxi, not to speak of the fact that they are a bit dangerous, in my opinon.
