Going to Bangkok for your holidays? Here are 10 must see Bangkok attractions and must do activities in the city of of angels. 1. Get on a river taxi and see the beauty of the Chao Praya River. A very different view of Bangkok I’ve got to say. If you’re the adventurer, you can just jump on one at any of its terminals. Just be fast enough as the boats ( water taxis ) hardly stop. Otherwise, book a tour from one of the hotels by the river such as The Royal Orchid Sheraton, Shangri la or The Peninsula. 2. Rub elbows with the locals and tourists at the Weekend market, Chatuchak/Jatujak It can get very hot in here but it’s an excellent place to see the wares of Thailand. You might even...
Thailand prides itself in the fact that it is the only country in Southeast Asia that has never been a colony of another country. It also prides itself in its strong Buddhist tradition. Although Christianity was introduced to Thailand by European missionaries in the 16th century, Christians constituted only 0.7 percent (438,600) of the population by the year 2001. Portugal was the first country to send Christian missionaries to Thailand, in 1554. The French followed in 1660. Most of the early missionaries were Catholic, and by 1908, Thailand had approximately 50 Catholic schools with nearly 4,000 pupils. Today, approximately 25 percent of the Christian population is Roman...
Phuket is Thailand's biggest island. The water itself may not be as breathtaking as Phi Phi or Similan island, but it's still beautiful. My suggestion is you stay at Phuket and then take a boat to Phi Phi, Similan or other smaller nearby islands for a snorkeling or diving trip. Phuket Thailand becomes lively during the night -- with all the pubs, bars and restaurants opening until midnight or later. You can choose to stay at your Phuket hotel and have romantic dinner there. Or you can choose to take a stroll at Phuket's popular Patong beach for some night scene. Phuket has dozens of beaches. Each has tens, if not hundreds, of hotels. If you don't like a crowded beach with hundreds of...
1.Get on a river taxi and see the beauty of the Chao Praya River. A very different view of Bangkok I've got to say. If you're the adventurer, you can just jump on one at any of its terminals. Just be fast enough as the boats ( water taxis ) hardly stop. Otherwise, book a tour from one of the hotels by the river such as The Royal Orchid Sheraton, Shangri la or The Peninsula.
2.Rub elbows with the locals and tourists at the Weekend market, Chatuchak/Jatujak. It can get very hot in here but it's an excellent place to see the wares of Thailand. You might even find a good buy along the way. Thai ( and not so Thai ) goods available from antique furniture to fake jeans.
3.See the wonders of the Grand Palace All hail the Queen of England, but her Buckingham Palace is nothing compared to this glorious work of art in the middle of Bangkok.
4.Have a Thai massage in Wat Po and if you have the time, take the 10-day Thai Massage course If you don't get a Thai massage in Thailand then you haven't been to Thailand at all. Experience this somewhat bone breaking yet de-stressing technique right from where it originated. Or if that's a bit too much, go for the foot massage instead.
5.Have A Relaxing Spa At The Banyan A relaxing spa retreat right in the middle of the city. You can choose from a 1 hour facial treatment or if you have time to spare, have a 7 hour Banyan package and spoil yourself mad.
6.Visit the Floating Marekt It may just be another commercial avenue for tourists to spend their dollars, but if you go to the floating market early in the morning when the "river-folk" are actually buying and selling goods mindless of the tourists, then it's a very good cultural experience.
7.Haggle at the night markets Sure many goods are over-priced but if you know how to haggle and how much you're willing to pay for what you're buying, this can be very fun. If you go very early, just when the shops are opening, you might even get the prices real low ( first buyers luck!)
8.Shop Till You Drop Shopping is the Thai's national past time and wherever you are in Bangkok, you will never run out of shops to explore. You'll find practically everything in this City Of Angels and at very reasonable prices to boot. For reasonable priced clothes, go to Pratunum Market; for little trinkets, go to Yaowarat in Chinatown; for bargain software, go to Panthip plaza, and for designer clothes, try Central Plaza or The Emporium Shopping Center.
9.Try Thai cuisine You've had Thai food in your country and I'm sure it's good; but Thai food cooked in Thailand, is in my opinion, just heavenly! Just be sure to know the words, Mai Pet ( My Pet ). This means not spicy in Thai, but you'll probably be wondering how hot the spicy dishes are after you've bit into your first chilli!
10.See An Elephant Show I know they should be in the wild and all that...but if I were an elephant, this humiliation of dancing in front of amused humans is much better than the alternative which is walking on the hot streets of Bangkok waiting for tourists to buy me a piece of sugar cane for food. And I have to say, this is one show I enjoy. Watch out for the baby elephants! They're a real treat! About the Author Aimee C.
