Bangkok, The city of Angels

by catkin - last update: Feb 24, 2004

What can you say about Bangkok? A lot of people will tell you it is crowded, polluted, dirty, and smelly…well it can be but it’s a terrific place. I love it!!

You get to see all facets of life side by side, the rich with the poor. But through it all the spirit of its people is the same. They are friendly, warm honest and hardworking. We have met some wonderful people on our visits to Thailand and Bangkok will always hold special memories for us.
Our friends Richard and Jenny went to Bangkok with us last year-it was their first trip to this fantastic city and they like us were captivated by it and the Thai people.

Cons:"Can be noisy, dirty and its impossible to drive around"
In A Nutshell:"Out of this world!"

 I have stayed in Bangkok many times, I love it as well, I know for a fact it is a city that never sleeps, totally agree about the Tuk Tuks, but if ur really feeling brave try the motorcycle taxis!
