Little Italy, commonly known as 'Palio walking St Khao Yai'
I saw this place being built from the start last year and never thought it would be much.
I only recently walked through it for the first time about a month ago. It is spectacular and has a wonderful feel about it.
The clock tower courtyard has a nice bar in it where you can sit in the courtyard and have a cool ale.
It is filled with a network of small laneways, all lined with shops of all sorts, some very interesting kick knack shops and furnishings as well.
there is a lot of food shops and we have only eaten at 2 of them so far, but seems to be some nice restaurants in there and several coffee shops.
There is a really nice hamburger shop, very tasty and a specialised chip shop, everything from smiley fries, to curly fries, to meat sauce to have with them...very good chips...we ate there yesterday arvo.
A lot of people go here and unfortunately, not many buy stuff. Yesterday for example there were a hundred or more walking around, but not many seem to buy stuff and the shops do not seem so busy. I hope they can all survive as it is and will be a great place to visit and for us to keep going as I love the look and feel of it, especially with the mountains surrounding it and the big trees in the middle of it.
Well done.
