The khim which has 42 strings is played with two flexible bamboo sticks with soft leather at the tips to produce the soft tone. It can be played by sitting down on the floor with the khim place on the floor or by sitting on a chair or standing. At the Chatuchak market, a young girl was playing by sitting in the middle of the crowd.
She offered us a never ending music moving the bamboo sticks so quickly but with such ability!beautiful time in this commercial area where Bangkok inhabitants and tourists enjoy tasting Thai food or shopping as it seems to be the first hobby in the capital city.
