Art Street in Pattaya has moved
When I walk along Beach Road in Pattaya during my regular walk, I often take the adjacent passage to Second Road near Mike's Shopping Mall.
That passage is called Art Street, because there are many small shops where artists are located. You can go there for a tattoo, but also to have a painting (usually from a photo) made of your mother-in-law, your children or your favorite pet. Always nice to walk past and watch the activities of painters and tattoo artists.
But recently the passage has been blocked. All shops have been demolished and disappeared due to a renovation of Mike's Shopping Mall. If you pay a visit to Art Street in vain, there is no man overboard. The Art Street still exists, but has moved to the space on Tipp Plaza, only a hundred meters away.
From the parking lot of Mike's Shopping Mall, walk down Second Road and soon you will see Tipp Plaza announced. For an extensive vlog about the move, watch the vlog below from Kev-in-Thailand:

Bert Gringhuis (1945), born and raised in Almelo in the beautiful Twente. Later lived for many years in Amsterdam and Alkmaar, working in export for various companies. I first came to Thailand in 1980 and immediately fell in love with the country. Been back many times since then and moved to Thailand after my (early) retirement as a widower. I have been living there for 22 years now with my somewhat younger Thai lady Poopae.
My first experiences in Thailand as a kind of newsletter sent to family, friends and acquaintances, which later appeared under the name Gringo on Thailandblog. Many, many articles followed those first stories and that has grown into an almost daily hobby.
In the Netherlands still an avid footballer and football referee, but the years are starting to tell and in Thailand still avid, but the pool billiards is really of inferior quality, ha ha!
