How’s your 2018 coming along? Plans for any upcoming travels? I just got back from my trip to UAE and Africa and settling back in. I visited Thailand last year and didn’t get a chance to write a travel post on it yet. My first stop on this trip was Bangkok. So let me start by writing about it. Here is my itinerary that I followed:
Wasn’t my favorite thing to do as the water was quite polluted. But I’ve heard the night cruises are a lot more fun. So look into the dinner cruises.
Some fun places to eat, drink and get massages. It can get really crowded, so be careful with your belongings here.
This was by far my favorite thing to do here. Ride a boat to all the stores, eat fruits, food, ice-cream etc while touring the market from boat vendors.
Food, food and more food. This is a fun experience for some streetside shopping, eating and buying cheap souvenirs etc.
You can checkout the Siam Area malls after checking the Jim Thompson house. Its a fun mall to shop at. Every floor is designed like a different country.
This is a simulated Thai village where you can eat a buffet, tour around and watch some really fun shows. There is a preshow with elephants and cultural dances and the main show which has some really impressive effects.
