Welcome to the City of angels

Bangkok is one of the most visited capital of Asias, and was awarded best city in the world by « Travel and Leisure Magazine » and « Times Travel Magazine » 4 times in a row from 2008 to 2011. It is true that Bangkok has everything to charm the visitor, splendid temples, worldwide renowned, huge shoppings mall where trademarks of the whole world are presented, a subtle mix of ancient and ultra modern life, with its channels and markets, but also with its city trains ( sky train like the "BTS" or underground like the "MRT"), its express ways crossing each other and crossing the city, its tens of stairs buildings, not mentioning its cuisine, renowned worldwide as well...
Bangkok has 12 millions inhabitants and 1568,7 sq km, making it one of the largest city in the world.

The city is crossed by the Chao Phraya river, which designs 2 separated areas, the right bank (ex Thonburi) more traditional and rustic, with its many water channels (klongs) which made Bangkok deserve the name of "Venice of Asia", and the left bank, more developed  where all the touristic places are, as well as the business center, the sky train and underground network and all modern towers.

Airport. There are actually 2 airports around Bangkok: Suvarnabhumi (spell Soo-war-napom), the ultra modern international airport, built with the same Technics as terminal 2 in Roissy Charles de Gaulle, Paris. Made from glass and metal, it's the longest airport in the world. Bangkok airways domestic flights also arrive here and leave from here. The other airport is Don Muang, north of Bangkok, former international airport, it is nowadays only used for cargo and low-cost domestic flights (1,2 go, Nok Air, etc...).


Sukhumvit. This is the first tourist area for accommodation, it is the longest avenue in Bangkok (more than 40km) and deluxe hotels are all along it. the first Soi are the more crowded.


Chilom is a central area, closer to the river, also hosts numerous hotels of different categories, very useful to shop around with several malls not that far.


Khao San, is the area around Khao San Road, in the Banglamphu district, just above the Grand Palace, near the river. It is the young tourists and travellers guetto, as the cheapest accommodations in bangkok are here. Warning, as many theft have been reported in the cheapest hotels.

WAT PHRA KAEW IN BANGKOK & HOTELS

The Wat Phra Kaew  with Temple amazing invaluable Thailand.


Bangkok, Thailand, Temple, Hotel, Resort
Wat Phra Kaew in Thailand


The Wat Phra Kaew is regarded as the most sacred Buddhist temple (wat) in Thailand. It is a "potent religio-political symbol and the palladium of Thai society". It is located in the historic centre of Bangkok (district Phra Nakhon), within the precincts of the Grand Palace. The main building is the central ubosoth, which houses the statue of Emerald Buddha. The legendary history of this Buddha image is traced to India, five centuries after the Lord Buddha attained Nirvana, till it was finally enshrined in Bangkok at the Wat Phra Kaew temple in 1782 during Rama I's reign (1782 - 1809). This marked the beginning and raise of the Chakri Dynasty of the present Kingdom of Thailand (the present head of the dynasty is King Rama IX. The Emerald Buddha, a dark green statue, is in a standing form, about 66 centimetres (26 in) tall, carved from a single jade stone (Emerald in Thai means deep green colour and not the specific stone). It is carved in the meditating posture in the style of the Lanna school of the northern Thailand. Except for the Thai King, no other person is allowed to touch the statue. The King changes the cloak around the statue three times a year, corresponding to the summer, winter, and rainy seasons, an important ritual performed to usher good fortune to the country during each season. While legend traces this statue to India, its rich historical records dates its finding in Cambodia in the 15th century, moved to Laos in the 16th century and then to Vientiane where it remained for 215 years, and finally to Thailand in the 18th century. Considering the long history and Nagasena's (a Brahmin who became a Buddhist sage and lived about 150 BC) prophesy that the Emerald Buddha would bring "prosperity and pre-eminence to each country in which it resides", the Emerald Buddha deified in the Wat Phra Kaew is deeply revered and venerated in Thailand as the protector of the country.

AYUTTHAYA PROVINCE, THE OLD CITY OF THAILAND & HOTELS

Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya

*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*

Hotel Ayutthaya Resort
The ruins of the old capital in the Ayutthaya historical park

Ayutthaya is one of Thailand historical and majestic highlights. The capital of Thailand, then known as the Kingdom of Ayutthaya, Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya was a glorified as one of the biggest cities in Southeast Asia and a regional power for 417 years. The Kingdom of Ayutthaya reached its apex in terms of sovereignty, military might, wealth, culture, and international commerce in the 16th century, when the Kingdom’s territory extended into and beyond present-day Laos, Cambodia, and Myanmar. Ayutthaya had diplomatic relations with Louis XIV of France and was courted by Dutch, Portuguese, English, Chinese and Japanese merchants. During the 17th century, most foreign visitors to Ayutthaya, traders and diplomats alike, claimed Ayutthaya to be the most illustrious and glittering city that they had ever visited. The map of Ayutthaya published in 1691 by Simon de la Loubere in Du Royaume De Siam is proof of such recognition. Visitors can explore and appreciate Thai history in Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya, which is only 86 kilometers north of Bangkok. Visitors to Ayutthaya can marvel at its grandeur reflected through numerous magnificent temples and ruins concentrated in and around the city, which is located upon an “island” surrounded by the Chao Phraya, Pa Sak and Lopburi Rivers. Although there are numerous attractions, the Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya Historical Park in the heart of Ayutthaya city, is a UNESCO’s World Heritage site and a wonder to behold in Thailand.

The architectural style is reminiscent of Khmer temples as the main pagoda, Pra Prang Sri Mahathatu,was surrounded by small ones in 8 directions. It is assumed that the relics of Lord Buddha or other sacred objects used to be kept in the main Prang. The ordination hall is located in the east of the Prang.

Resort Satun , Ko Tarutao Thailand
Ko Tarutao, Satun Thailand

Ko Tarutao in Thailand is one of the 51 islands that belong to the Tarutao National Marine Park archipelago in southern Thailand. One of Tarutao’s greatest attraction is its wildlife: sea turtles, whales, monitor lizards, crab-eating macaques, mouse deer and more all call the island and its surrounding waters home. Compared to other Andaman islands the waters of Ko Tarutao are to murky to snorkel, but for most, the unspoilt beaches, waterfalls, great hiking and views more than compensate for this. And Ko Tarutao , the biggest island in the park where the park office is situated.  The main island of Tarutao used to be a jail for convicts but now tourists can walk  along  trails to beaches and cliffs. The ruined prisons are found at Ao Talo Udang, on the southern tip of island and at Ao Talowao, on the middle of east coast.  The island contains several bays including Ao Phante Malaka with a hilltop viewpoint; Ao Mo Lae and Ao Son. Tarutao’s largest stream, Klong Phante Malaka, enters the sea at the north – western tip of the island at Ao Phante Malaka. Pier and bungalow are also here. The best camping is at the beaches of Ao Jak and Ao Son, two bays south of the park headquarters on the west coast.

I had been stayed in Dusit Thani for 3 days. It gave me very good memories - their staff are very nice and helpful. Their facilities are great, especially the swimming pool. During my stay in Dusit, I saw millions of stars every night, which is amazing.

I think the location of Dusit Thani is a bit inconvenient. But overall, Dusit Thani is a great hotel.

ASALHA PUJA DAY, THAILAND

ASALHA PUJA DAY, BUDDHIST



Asalha Puja Day is one of the most sacred days in Buddhist. It is observed on the fifteenth day of the waxing moon of the eight lunar month (July).  This year it is celebrated at Wat Tampa on Sunday, July 21, 2013.
Asalha Puja Day is the anniversary of the day on which Lord Buddha delivered his first Sermon to his five Disciples at the Deer Park in Benares, over two thousand five hundred years ago. The day also marks the beginning of the worship of the Triple Gems, namely: the Lord Buddha, His Teachings and His Disciples.
The Buddhist Lent starts on the first day of the waning moon of the eighth lunar month. The tradition of Buddhist Lent or the annual three-month Rains Retreat, known in Thai as "PHUN SAA", dates back to the time of early Buddhism in ancient India. All holy men, mendicants and sages spent three months of the annual rainy season in permanent dwellings. They avoided unnecessary travel during this period when crops were still new for fear they might accidentally step on young plants. In deference to popular opinion, Lord Buddha decreed that his followers should also abide by this ancient tradition, and they began to gather in-groups of simple dwellings.
Many Thai people will return to their ancestral homes to worship in their local temple and to bring offerings for the monks. In the evening they will often perform a wian tian, where they walk clockwise around the main shrine of the temple carrying a candle, three incense sticks and a lotus bed. During the day, monks chant mantras or repeat the first sermon of the Buddha.
