Once in bangkok a tour guide took us down a small ally at china town running between shops not enough for 2 people to pass by. It was full of everything, toys,cosmetics, watches and clocks, pens and pencils. What is the place?

Greetings
From what I remember Soi Wanit 1 and Wanit roads are just opposite ends. The small alley is called Sampaeng lane. This is the Sampaeng market where I think you want to go shopping.
Happy hunting there.

The important facts have been mentioned already.
Just for your info: It's less than 5 min walking distance from Ratchawong intersection with Yaowarat rd. Grand China Princess Hotel is there. If you come by River Expressboat (public), get off at Ratchawong pier, 3rd possibility to your right.
