Compelling of Asian City @ Bangkok, Thailand

Cultural phenomenon, shopping heaven and tourist treasure.

A scary traffic jam in Bangkok. Taking a cab may not be a good choice during day time.

Probably, we should think about Bangkok Mass Transit System (BTS).

It is just like KL LRT. It offers different type of tickets such as Unlimited One Day Pass, 30 Day Pass and etc.

It can bring us to the most of the tourist attractions. Planning our itinenary according to BTS route map is definately a good idea.

Tuk-tuk is very easy to be found.

Nice experience in taking speedy tuk-tuk. Please hold tightly else you will fly away as tuk-tuk is an open ended vehicle.

Army on duty. I think it was just because of the recent political issue.

A quiet street in the morning.

Do you notice the cables are exposed? I am curious if these hundred of cables in bunch will explode one day.

Most Thai are Buddhists.

There is a Buddha in every main street. You will know how sincere Thai Buddhists are when you see them.

A show at Four Face Buddha place. It is crowded from the morning until night time.

We shouldn't skip shopping in Bangkok - shopping heaven. Siam Paragon, claims that it is the largest shopping mall in Asia.

The Platinum Fashion Mall, the largest wholesale clothing mall in Bangkok.

You can grab T-shirt, jeans, bag, shoes and whatever fashionable in pretty low price.

Tourism is one of the main income source for Bangkok. Mini tour buses are lining up.

Riding elephant is a must do in Bangkok? I am not so interested in as it will cross the river. But you may love it.

Bangkok is also famous in wooden carving.

Fantastic!

Other than Tom Yum Kong, we can also easily find this stall.

This kind of meat balls looked delicious.

I bought some and tried. I would say this is not my favourite. 

No doubt, Bangkok is a good travel destination.
