In the words of a popular guidebook, Sampeng is “... a confusing and crowded array of jewellery, hardware, wholesale food, automotive and fabric shops.” If Yaowaraj and Ratchawong Roads are the spine of a piscine Chinatown then the fine herringbones are the sois and troks, the alleys and lanes. Beyond Chakrapet Road lies Pahurat, whose alleyways are crowded cheek by jowl with a Sikh temple and the fabric shops of Indian merchants.
