I don't know about Wat Botum still being a dodgy area at night. It certainly was before it was refurbished and lit up about 7 years ago. Before that there were loads of trees in the corner where the playground is now, with squatters camps hidden around.
There were street-walkers around too, and all along the park towards Independence Monument. I think there still are, but because it's well lit and has nice paving and flowerbeds etc it's more a place families go to in the evenings. It would have been unthinkable 10 years back.Statistics: Posted by Pigbagdog — Thu Oct 27, 2016 9:40 pm
