  Southwest monsoon

  15 May – 15 Eki · genelde

  Rain in heavy late-afternoon bursts that clear as fast as they arrive, rather than all-day weather — except in September, when it does settle in and the low-lying streets stand in water. Low season, and priced like it.

  Chao Phraya flood season

  Nine days when Yaowarat turns yellow with flags and every other stall sells jay food — no meat, no dairy, no garlic or onion. The best eating week of the year in Chinatown, and cheap. Kaynak ↗
