A TRAVAL TO BANGKOK

We must get to the heart of Bangkok to enjoy the capital of Siam. The outward appearance is unflattering and revealing little of its beauties. Noise, traffic, pollution and heat will welcome you at the airport exit. 

Do not be surprised by the endless avenues, the many ways of air or ground traffic and huge concrete buildings.

10 million people live in Bangkok more than 10% of the national population. The capital attracts Thais with its economic growth but also because everything is concentrated: the government, big industry, the political and cultural heart of the country.

BangkokMany tourists coming every year. The city is distinguished by its double identity: tradition and modernity that fit into each other forming lifestyle Thai.

The capital of Thailand is divided into two parts by a railroad. On one side are the old Bangkok surrounded by the river Mae Nam Chao Praya district temples and markets. On the other side, it's very concrete modern city, with rows shopping centers and business districts.

The city has many monuments including 400 lavish Buddhist temples: Wat Phra Kaeo in the Royal Borough or Wat Pho, magnificent palaces, museums and interesting especially the National Museum in Bangkok for a historical overview of the Thai art .

Take the time to take a walk on the klong, the waterways that run through Bangkok from one end to the other and on the Chao Praya River, the "River of Kings".

Spend half a day in Chinatown and imitate Thais: go shopping!
