The Old Teak House


The Old Teak House, originally uploaded by HellonEarth2006.

In Thailand, houses used to be built out of teak wood. This is one of those properties lying on the other side of the river to Bangkok in Thonburi. It is close to the Santa Cruz Church which was built by the Portuguese and which will be feaured here shortly. It is in rather a dilapidated state but must have been quite something when new despite the rather incongruous corrugated tin roof.
