Have you visited Bangkok, Thailand, the most popular travel destination in Southeast Asia? Nearly 12 million foreign tourists descend on Bangkok each year and included in countless itineraries, Bangkok is usually the first stop in Southeast Asia.
Visit the famous and well-known historical sites - The Royal Palace, Wats and temples; eat yourself into a happy stupor for pennies (just wait until you see one of Bangkok’s Food Courts that spread into infinity and beyond); spend time strolling through different neighborhoods, each with its own distinct character; and cruise up and down the Chao Phraya River, passing famous sights along the way. What about shopping; a walk through infamous Pat Pong; having one of the always painful Thai massages (with or without, a “happy ending”)... With so much to do, and so little time, your stay in Bangkok will fly by!
It seems like some people work their entire life to take an Exotic Vacation, when in reality, such a trip can be had for less than taking the family to DisneyWorld. Especially in Thailand, considered inexpensive by European and American standards (if not downright cheap). Or opt for luxury in some of the World’s finest hotels.
Let Travels With Sheila teach you how to Travel the World on a Budget, share exotic locations with you known only to locals, and most importantly, ease your fears about languages, currencies, personal safety and staying healthy.
HERE’S SOME OF THE INFORMATION YOU’LL FIND INSIDE...
- Fast & Easy Basics for Visiting Bangkok.
- Dos and Don’ts while Exploring Bangkok.
- How to Save Big Money!
- Sheila’s Favorite Bangkok Sights.
