Cruisin' Through Chinatown

Bangkok's Chinatown remains a fascinating place, no matter how often I visit, whether walking through familiar lanes and neighborhoods or exploring narrow alleys.
This time, my focus was on houses, not the really ancient shophouses, but more on those from the 1950s & 60s.
Some resemble slices of cake, such as the one above!
Rooms like blocks stacked on top of each other, painted in soft pastel colors...
But other colors are popular too!
Of course, not everyone can afford to take good care of their house...
Various shades of yellow.
Mix and match: pink, blue, yellow, green, and pale orange!
Purely decorative, but not forgotten.
Lots of lanes such as these.
Perhaps the owners ran out of money to spruce up the left side?
No such financial problems here.
Note the Thai flag colors!
The top part of that corner building seems a bit odd...
Tuktuk green!
And for the final, another slice of cake!
