Soi 38

I find Soi 38 to be an interesting street. When I moved to the hostel which on Soi 38 off Sukhumvit I decided to walk all the way down to the deadend of Soi 38. It must have been at one time a "high class" street. Looking through the beautiful iron gates and fence there seems to be quite a few beautiful estates. When I followed the head housekeeper of the hostel one morning I got a better view. The gate was open and she talked to the guards. There were two beautiful shaggy dogs and the house and grounds were very impressive. I was told it belongs to a very rich Chinese.

One of the former Kings daughter also lives on this street. And at the end there is a military compound.
