B@ckPacK-ING PART-->1

Apologize to every1 who are waiting i post this blog...Busy working So late 2 post it :-)

Well, 19/5/08 - 24/5/08. i had my backpacking trip 2 Thailand. The Destinations are Thailand capital Bangkok and Phuket Island.

Before i went to Bangkok, i thought it was a "balia" place, actually i am totally wrong. The 1st impression of Bangkok giving me is the airport is very grand and beautiful.

Let me describe a bit about Bangkok. This city is very clean and the public transport is as systematic as Singapore. You won get lose in this beautiful city. The whether here is almost same as Malaysia but the time i went there is summer, so it is quite hot at that moment.

Thailand is a Buddhism country, the monks over there are get the highest respect from every one. Even the king of Thailand also been a Monk before he become the king.

Due to Thailand is a Buddhism country, the people there is very friendly and warm to every one.

The age of this city is around 200 years, so Bangkok is full of historical places and the food over there is very delicious.

Quote from internet:

"Bangkok has dominated Thailand's urban hierarchy as well as its political, commercial and cultural life since the late 18th century. Distinctly modern and Westernised, Bangkok is still a sleepy Thai village with a louder soundtrack of traffic and nightlife.

Bangkok proper seethes on the east side of the Mae Nam Chao Phraya (Chao Phraya River), drawing rural Thai folk into its cluttered fold daily. The city is reportedly sinking at a rate of 5cm (2in) every year, but there's too much sànùk (a Thai sense of fun) going on for that to get anyone down."


Words cant describe all my opinion, let the picture tell the story to all of you.
