Bangkok

by herzog63 - last update: Aug 27, 2003

Grand Palace

Grand Palace
Bangkok is a great place with plenty of things to do! You can explore temples, cruise the canals, shop till you drop, eat until you explode, walk aimlessly through the small side streets, party all night, or hop on a bus to a secluded island.
Close up Wat Arun

Wat Arun

Wat Arun is on the other side of the Chao Phrya River. You can easily get there by taking one of the boats from the pier near the Grand Palace. Getting there is half the fun!!

Beautiful Golden Buddhas

There are many beautiful Golden buddhas to see. Standing Buddhas,Sitting Buddhas, Sleeping Buddhas. Some Buddhas are real gold and others are just painted gold. All so beautiful to me! I come from a place that doesn't have anything like it so I find it to be very exotic.

 Stay in the sukhumvit area, It's much nicer. I'm staying at a great place on sukhumvit soi 1 called soi 1 guesthouse. I loved Thailand and hope that I will return soon.

 .........and another experience I had at Wat Arun was someone offering a photo opp (for money of course) with a rather large python! .........for shoppers, the T-shirt range here is exceptionally good!
