Bangkok Introduction

Bangkok introduction starts off by giving you a famous Thai warm welcome. Sawadeekap!

Bangkok can certainly be described as hectic, frenzy and somewhat over full. Bangkok is split
into different sections by the Chao Phraya River. Due to the river, Bangkok is located in one of the world's most productive rice-producing regions.

Bangkok is covered by a good number of waterways which carry passengers and products on numerous boats that navigate the waters in and around Bangkok.

The Bangkok streets are filled with continuous traffic jams. Bangkok is growing and expanding into
all directions with a mixture of business and manufacturing complexes.

Bangkok has a new citywide sky train system which transports commuters and tourists above the city. The sky train system has been a great improvement to the traffic nightmare that Bangkok had and it gives visitors a tranquil and well-organized way to observe the hectic life of those on the ground below. 

Bangkok has recently opened a brand new subway system which improved the public transport system even further,

Although Bangkok is overcrowded and somewhat polluted, Bangkok is without a doubt one of the continent’s most lively cities. Bangkok is also one of the Globes largest cities on earth.

Tourists visiting Bangkok will discover along the river the Grand Palace which is also known as the Wat Phra Kaeo. The world famous palace temple in Bangkok is host the world renowned Emerald Buddha which is made entirely from transparent green jade.

Bangkok has around 35 Temples spread through the city. The largest Temple in Bangkok is the Temple of the Reclining Buddha. This world famous Thai temple houses a remarkable figure of the holy being. The well-known Floating Market is a pleasure to tourists and locals and is certainly well worth some time to explore.
