The entrance to 'Snake Alley', a market that boasts regular snake slaughters. We caught a couple as we were leaving. A man stands at the front of his restaurant and demonstrates how to kill a snake (hold it by the tail and crack it's head off the floor) and how to drain it's blood (hang it from a noose, slit it from mid-section to neck, pull out it's major arteries and cut them while holding a pitcher to catch the blood). You could drink the blood or eat the snake. Pictures prohibited.
