Thai Manne Vanakkam










I landed in bangkok on a late friday afternoon from singapore with my brother and my other cousin .As we were about to leave the airport I encountured a very familiar atmosphere where the taxi drivers were trying to lure tourist to ride with them , we shrugged everyone and went straight to the prepaid line .

The buildings , streets, of bangkok are very similar to any city in
India .There were a lot of things to see in thailand but we decided to stroll
on the local streets .Like any tourist spot many touts would approach you for many things , theses were the common lines "thaaaaaai massage sire ","Sir tuk tuk (Tuk tuk is auto of thailand)".

Thailand is famous for imitation of branded goods, Louis Vutton bags,Rolex watches , Sports Jersy are among the hot sellers.The thai currency is Bhat and it has the same value as an Indian Rupee.

On Day 2 we took a boat ride to the Kings Palace , walked to the Sleeping Bhuddha in the noon .In the night we visited the night market and dined in a fancy thai restaurant .

Day 3 was one of my best travel experience , we visited the floating market .It is canal which has shops in it and the tourist would travel on boats and shop around .I would let the pictures do the remaining talking.

There are many things , other than what i wrote ,that thailand has to offer and you have to be there to experience it .And like they day "What ever happens in Bangkok stays in Bangkok ;) ".Over all i had a great time here and all credits to my host and financer my bro .
