✅RATCHADA RAMA 9 | Bangkok's NEW Downtown | Jodd Fairs Market | Fortune Town Mall | Condos For Rent

[@Dutchdog555]

Thanks Pat, I live very close to Rama IX/ Ratchada, and again you showed me lots of things I had no idea existed, despite living in the area for the last 16 years. Btw, if I'm not mistaken, Jodd Fairs is the smaller reincarnation of the Rot Fai Ratchada Night Market that used to be located behind the Esplanade Mall just down the street from Jodd Fairs. I heard the new The One Night Market will open soon where the Rot Fai/ Ratchada Night Market was, and dwarfs the Jodd Fairs market in size.

[@danrobinson5252]

Thanks Pat, I enjoyed this video, as I do all of yours. It’s great to see a fella who has genuine knowledge and interest of Bangkok, a fella who creates original content instead of the countless muppets who regurgitate the same old crap. You do the hot and sweaty hard yards around the city that I love when I no longer can, and I thank you for that. Keep up the good work

[@BangkokPat]

Thanks Dan, l do genuinely enjoy this and l am eager to get to as many places as possible, always something new to discover. There's clearly a market for the repeated content so the usual topics will be always recycled. Must be really boring to repeatedly fake it doing that kind of content!

[@bertvanderkooij2886]

Another outstanding video by Pat Productions!! The quality of your work exceeds most (if not all) other Thailand vloggers. You are a real pro.

[@dexterford8094]

Between Jodd Fairs and the G-Tower there are a few levels of huge concrete slabs that take up the whole block, just behind that tin fence next to the small canal. This was meant to be an extension of Central Mall I think but development seemed to stop sometime in 2019 I think. There was also meant to be a huge 110+ floor building next to the Central car park. This building never even got started although they did do all the preliminary drilling and pilings a few years ago. Shame it never got built because it would have been a stunning building and one of the tallest in the world. When did you do this video? I was at Central on Monday afternoon. It's only 2 MRT stops from my condo in Huai Khwang.

Probably my favorite area to stay when I'm in Bangkok. Easy transportation options and an abundance of shopping while still being close to many places I frequent. Getting lost in the neighborhood behind Fortune Town makes for an enjoyable and interesting walk in the cityscape of Thai urban culture.

It might be interesting to learn more about the Sutthisan area as it seems eclipsed by its more well known neighbours.

[@neilrmartin1984]

I developed a strange attachment to Sutthisan a few years back, in that I'd rented an apartment one MRT stop further out. When I took the bus home I would ask for Sutthisan because I couldn't pronounce the name of the stop I really wanted - at least in a way that was intelligible to the ticket seller. The more 'helpful' conductors would then ensure that I left the bus at Sutthisan ... From what I remember, there wasn't really a lot around there at that time. But it was certainly very affordable

[@PsychicLord]

[@BangkokPat]

Cheers, an area I'd definitely consider should we move from where we are, you're near but off the main Sukhumvit area and it feels very modern and well organised. RCA within walking distance, which is great if you're into proper nightlife away from the tourist haunts.

[@martynbush3462]

Another great production Pat. I used to stay at the rather dreary but cheap Watana Mansion Hotel on Soi 17 Ratchada (or Latchada as my wife says). I haven't been there for about 10 years so it's probable an upmarket shopping mall by now. I'm hoping to return to Thailand in December and stay for a month, I think I'm going to see some changes since I was last there.

[@BangkokPat]

No courses at all. Just decided to start a channel different to every other channel out there! I done radio before so knew about talking and how to get across clearly...

[@ATIWatchReviews]

I went there in June. It was an excellent night market. More compact than ratchada so less space to walk around, but many many food stalls and very busy (almost too busy). The public seating is strange though how most of it is lower down, not full height tables/chairs, at least for the ones outside of the stalls. Chinese deserts were the BEST!

Hey Pat, I have been enjoying your video for sometime. I’m a regular visitor to BKK from Singapore. 1. When you quote the rental rate of those condos, are you quoting in US$ or Baht ? It’s good to specify. 2. You when talk about a train station, it will be helpful to show the train map to give viewers a better spatial perspective . Keep up the good work !

You don’t see many farang in malls , they love cheap cheap cheap and on mass , Thailand gov wants the big money cake , sorry with 10 years visa for rich and 80 people taken up offer this year says black and white , the rich go Singapore for Asia’s once Hong Kong but much less these days , poor south east Asia on avg that’s the way it is , that’s why son your videos get 10000 hits and smut gets 10 times as much ….. not rocket science son , the more you talk cheap Thailand the more subscribers you will get , hence the reason I don’t do videos myself, great information is not rewarded short skirts are …. Hence start of my comment. It goes round in circles Thailand is what it is . Good video

Great video mate. Can apartments be rented for 3 months? Also can you inquire in the lobby or do you need to find apartments via agents?

[@BangkokPat]

Lobby is the best way every time. There you can often be put in touch with apartment owners directly, if the staff are efficient.

[@finwest]

Dave, I'll jump in with my experience... I started to look for a condos last month and walked around several neighborhoods of interest, but learned nearly all the condo buildings have security and they asked me to leave my passport before I could go on the property (actually a good thing). When I did get in, there was no one around that knew anything about available units. So, I'm going to use an agent. Bill

[@timrandom]

My company have offices here so I know the area well. Fortune Town is at the moment by far the best mall for electronics and more in bkk. Most shops have qualified staff and will help getting you what you need. Central mall is, well just another central mall. Now, Jodd Fairs... the herd is self reinforcing, and youtubers are no different. Except for the hype and window dressing it's average at best. Nothing that stands out here except that a lot of people have decided it's flavor of the month imho. You'll get exactly the same at a myriad of other new style local middle class modern evening markets scattered around bkk. Don't have to trek far and wide these days to sample alive pamuk or goong 😆

[@BangkokPat]

Cheers Tim, I thought the food was particularly good at Jodd Fairs, I'm not a market person myself but quality and choice was good. Bit rammed and not many places to sit. I've been once, and that's enough. I spent more time in the Central car park above getting shots later on. Name one YT channel that hasn't been. I wouldn't have done a video there if I wasn't doing this area. Central is it's usual self but Fortune Town is an Aladdin's Cave for video and audio gear for the vlogger.
