A Day At The Market
Every day, people come from all over Bangkok to
visit Aw Taw Kaw. While there are markets everywhere in the sprawling
city, few would argue that this is where one comes when it
is time to be serious.
Curry, fruits, vegetables, snacks, ducks, and
many other specialities of the countryside are all brought here to
sell. On the weekend, the market explodes as workers come in for a little
snack and a big bag of mangosteens to bring home.
The Aw Tawk Kaw pavilion in the world's fair is
a collaboration by many people. Ung-Ang Talay of the Bangkok Post
has provided the inspiration and the guidance. Kuhn Kid, also of
the Bangkok Post, provided the stunning photographs. Construction assistance
was provided by Philippe Tabaux of the Internet Multicasting
Service and Becky Pranger of Enviromedia.
