New, improved, but empty Khao San Road
The newly renovated Khao San Road, which is usually buzzing with backpackers, stands empty on May 24 as many venues have had to temporarily close in line with Covid-19 measures.
This road is normally full of tourists visiting bars and restaurants or haggling for the best souvenir from one of the many stalls lining the street.
Though the number of new Covid-19 cases has dropped dramatically, the government is still not allowing venues in Khao San Road to reopen or for foreigners to enter the country.
