Canals of Bangkok https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Klongs.jpg Torox
There is good reason why Bangkok was once known as the Venice of the East. The city relied on its many canals, called khlong, for transportation. Today although many of the canals have been filled in, there are still a number that are visible and in use. You can take ferry boats on these canals as a form of city transport.
Khlong Bang Lamphu The northern part of the second of three concentric canals of medieval Bangkok.
Khlong Lord The innermost of the three ring canals that were carved to demarcate medieval Bangkok.
Let me take you to explore and discover Penang through my series of walking tours on YouTube. You may use these videos as your virtual tour guide. At the beginning of each video, I provide the starting point coordinates which you may key into your GPS, Google Maps or Waze, to be navigated to where I start the walk, and use the video as your virtual tour guide.

Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
