Project 2 Cities: Traveller

I would like to have a fact-finding trip in Thailand, because I have come to Thailand already. Therefore, I like to experience a real trip in  here, i will not visit commercial places or famous destination. I choose unpopular places and enjoy Thai food, maybe i will learn to cook Thai food.

1. Khaosan road
Khaosan shops sell handcrafts, paintings, clothes, local fruits, pirated CDs, DVDs, a wide range of fake IDs, used books, plus many useful backpacker items.
During late evening, the streets turn into bars and music is played, food hawkers sell barbecued insects, exotic snacks for tourists, and there are also locals flogging ping pong shows.
There are several pubs and bars where backpackers meet to discuss their travels. The area is internationally known as a center of dancing, partying, and just prior to the traditional Thai New Year (Songkran festival) of 13-15 April, water splashing that usually turns into a huge water fight. One Thai writer has described Khaosan as "...a short road that has the longest dream in the world"


2. Chatuchak
Chatuchak weekend market,  Bangkok, is the largest market inThailand.[1] Chatuchak Market, also known as JJ Market, has more than 8000 stalls which are separated into 27 sections.

project 2 Cities - Bangkok, Thailand: Tourist

If i had a chance to visit Bangkok, Thailand for 4 days, I would like to visit to many places. I will divide my trip to two parts. This is Day tour and Night tour.
Day tour
1. The first day in Bangkok
 
        Golden Buddha






The attraction at Wat Traimit is undoubtedly the impressive 3m-tall, 5.5-tonne, solid-gold Buddha image , which gleams like, well, gold. Sculpted in the graceful Sukhothai style, the image was 'discovered' some 40 years ago beneath a stucco or plaster exterior, when it fell from a crane while being moved to a new building within the temple compound

2. The second day in Bangkok

Vimanmek



The Vimanmek Mansion is a former royal palace in Bangkok, Thailand. It is also known as Vimanmek Palace. It is located in the Dusit Palace complex, nearby Dusit Zoo in Dusit district.
Vimanmek Palace was constructed in 1900 by having the Munthatu Rattanaroj Residence in Chuthathuj Rachathan at Ko Sichang, Chonburi, dismantled and reassembled in Dusit Garden as the first permanent residence in the garden.
3. The third day in Bangkok

Jim Thomson's house



Jim Thompson was an American who first came to Thailand as part of the OSS (the military precursor of the CIA) towards the end of World War II. After the war and upon leaving the service, he decided to return to Thailand. He saw the international potential of the almost forgotten cottage industry of silk weaving, and is largely credited with reviving the lost art.
4. The fourth day in Bangkok

Wat Pho


Wat Pho is a Buddhist temple in Phra Nakhon district, Bangkok, Thailand. It is located in the Rattanakosin district directly adjacent to the Grand Palace.[2] Known also as the Temple of the Reclining Buddha, its official name is Wat Phra Chettuphon Wimon Mangkhlaram Ratchaworamahawihan
Night tour
1. The first night
Siam Niramit 
Siam Niramit combines an authentic Thai buffet with a world-class stage show depicting Thailand's historical and spiritual heritage. With over 150 dazzling performers and state-of-the-art special effects, it’s a captivating journey. The first act describes how Siam became a cross-roads where civilisations met, the second how karma binds Thai people, and the final act shows how religious ceremony earns Thai people merit in this life. In addition to the show, you can visit replica villages from the country's rural regions and buy Thai handicrafts.
2. The second night

Calypso Ladyboy

An explosion of lights, sounds and pouts, the famous Calypso Ladyboy Cabaret is a breathless blend of incredible sets, glittering costumes and thrilling musical acts. Despite what you have seen or heard about Thai ladyboys, these performers are good at what they do best: looking and acting just like the real thing. You will be left dazzled by the show and quite possibly smitten with the many gender-straddling performers. Meet 'Marilyn Monroe', 'Michael Jackson' and Portuguese-Brazilian 1940s starlet 'Carmen Miranda', along with a string of their diva friends. This is an entertaining night out for families, couples and any curious souls expecting to be surprised.
3. The third night

Rod Fai Market in Bangkok


Rot Fai Market (Train Market) in Bangkok is an authentic open-air bazaar selling an incredible array of vintage collectables and memorabilia from yesteryear, from antique furniture to hippy fashion and Mao kitsch.
4. The fourth night
Bada Bar
Bada Bing is a fun-loving and friendly bar on Patpong Soi 2 where every night over 25 girls dance provocatively on stage dressed in sexy denim micro-shorts, army uniforms, nurses outfits and many other fantasy costumes that wouldn’t keep you warm, but certainly make the customers heat up. Often considered the best gogo bar in Bangkok, the design is modern, the service prompt, and best of all, Bada Bing is one of the only bars in the Patpong area where you can totally relax and enjoy yourself. With free entry every night of the week, you've got to ask yourself 'why haven't you seen this place with your own eyes?'
