  • I think that You should start in Bangkok with a trip to the National Museum, here You can find many interesting things and teach a lot about the Thai culture.
    It is well organized and You will find a lot of things to take pictures of.

  • It is one of the landmarks of Bangkok, and a true "must see activity", but You have to be there early in the morning - 6 am!
    You have to pay about 600 THb for a ticket, warning - You can find cheaper tickets but some of them are fakes, a lot of people want to take care of You and show You the right things to do - Ignore them and buy Your tickets at authorized offices.
