#LocalLens: Discovering the Serene Surroundings in Bangkok with @noithepa

In this series, local Instagrammers show you their favorite places to shoot around where they live. To see more photos and videos of Bangkok through Noi’s eyes, follow @noithepa on Instagram.

“I like the fact that Bangkok has everything, but no clear organization,” says architect and designer Ratvanich Thepa, who goes by Noi (@noithepa). Between the hustle and bustle of Thailand’s busiest city, he manages to capture serene moments of his surroundings.

In this edition of #LocalLens, Noi shares some of his favorite places to shoot around his hometown of Bangkok — which is currently filled with lively festivities in celebration of Songkran, one of the biggest holidays of the year in Southeast Asia.

“On the east side of the Chao Phraya River, you can find history, handicrafts and the ancient way of life,” says Noi about the historical area of Rattanakosin Island. “There are temples, a royal palace, universities and lots of old communities, and it’s very charming.” He also likes to explore the abundant nature located not too far from the city. “You can travel east or west for less than an hour and get to the sea, and you can get to the rain forest – Khao Yai National Park – in an hour or two if you feel the need for some fresh air,” he says. Noi especially loves driving westward along the costal route that leads directly down to southern Thailand, as well as Bang Pu — an old seaside resort located southeast of the city, where thousands of seagulls migrate from Siberia. “There are diverse ways of life and a mix of both old and new style houses and buildings,” Noi says of Bangkok, “so there’s always a lot going on.”
