BANGKOK- Part 1

CITY OF LIFE

From Bangkok

There would always be a reason why anyone should visit Bangkok- either its for pleasure, family bonding, friends' acquaintances, lovers' paradise, business opportunities, great shoppings and hey!...its also a good thing of how you can analyze your own city.

Your first landing will kiss your eager heart with spacious and cozy airport- the Suvarnabhumi Airport. At a very first glance, your tired eyes will be soothed by Thai People's depiction of creativity.

From Bangkok

Along the road, you'll see the unique structures that even a simple traveler would appreciate. Bangkok is never tired of giving designs that the world would be amused with. Although I warn you, this city has one of the heaviest road traffic in the world (yes, its worst than Manila, i bet you!) but the city government is restless to give the commuters the best alternatives that it could have. There are regular shuttle buses roaming the huge airport- down to the main bus stations (and its free!- during daytime), there are regular buses that transport the budget travelers to the main city of Bangkok, the metered taxi (oohh..I love their cabs, it's like riding in a moving spa because of the soothing scent and leatherized seats)- all vying the fly-over road defying the traffic.

From Bangkok

You can roam around Bangkok by simply riding the most convenient train system I ever seen in Asia. It is clean, accessible, not too crowded (except rush hours, of course) and can bring you to the most of your preferred destination within the city. This is the reason why most of the foreign travelers (noticeably the caucasians), neighboring asians including me- are confidently boarding the train.

From Bangkok

Another uniqueness that most of Asian neighbors should learn from Thais (aside from our Chinese brethren) is, they maximize the use of their river. Chao Phraya River- considered as the bloodline of the Thai people, is also one of the major waterways in Thailand . I t creates attractions to thousands of travelers. Aside from the very cheap fare (around B18- to the farthest station), it connects most of the major tourist spots in Bangkok- Wat Aran, Wat Po, The Grand Palace, etc.

From Bangkok

Visit in Thailand is not complete without a ride from the infamous Jame's Bond Movie- riding a TUK-TUK! Although not most of the TUK-TUK are not as honest as the cab drivers, you can always haggle with the rates to roam around the city. Just be aware of those establishments that these TUK-TUK will bring you. They are more concern about the commisions they would get (from the establishments) rather than your time and money you will spend.

From Bangkok

There will always be a reason why Bangkok is called as the 'City of Life'. You must have your own will to discover the secrets.

THAILAND

THE LAND OF SMILE

From Thailand

I've always written in my short stories in the past how I love Thailand. I considered this loveable country as my second home. Why? Aside from being tropical, the same climate that my country- the Philippines has, the people here are as warm as Filipino do. Although they don't speak English well (if not totally), they would rather give you a warm smile as they welcome you in every where.

From Thailand

Literally, I am convinced that if the Philippines will become a hard-to-live country (it is only beacuse of the Politics and the traditional politicians), I will settle in Thailand. But the Philippines is enchanting with its own natural beauty and culture which is very hard to resist.

Back to Thailand, I've been to south to north, east to west but admittedly, there are still many places I want to explore and visit.

From Thailand

Adorably, this Asian country had not been colonized by any western coutry. The result, their rich culture is not set aside parallel to the growing of the one-of-the-most-modern-city in Asia. Here, you can find tranquility and calmness, good food, state-of-the-Art facilities like Suvarnabhumi Airpport and where most of us are looking for- SHOPPING!
