Looks a more genteel gracious time with no gangs ready to pounce on a farang grandmother the true lOS

I seldom visit BKK but it appears to me to be very similar to today's BKK.

Remaster it digitally to improve the quality and you would think it was all filmed yesterday.

The only thing that really proves this is old footage is that the public buses driving around are still in good condition.

[BookMan]

A lot less motorcycles on the streets

Still using the very same buses today

Pre-concrete ghetto. Might have been a bit more interesting than these days.

[LPCustom69]

ahh, the good old days!

Aside from the video quality, looks pretty much the same.

Thank you. This was wonderful.

Love seeing these old videos. Is the Crystal Palace Bar or Bobby's Arms still there? Check these out for a bit of nostalgia: 10 Amazing Videos of Old Thailand That’ll Make You Wish You Could Travel Back In Time
