Thailand.... Advice, Recommendations and Tips? |
Travel Info Anything any one can tell me that has been there before or if any one would like to go, what would be on their must see / have to do list ???? Travel Tips a good hotel at a resonable price is the Sofitel Hotel on Silom Road, stay away from the Sofitel Central Plaza ..... its a dump. must sees in Thailand ..... Grand Palace River Khwea Death Railway Bridge Ayutthaya ruins Phimai ruins Chiang Mai Chiang Rai Golden Triangle Mae Hong Sun (visit hill tribes, including The Kariang (long neck women)) Samut Prakarn Corocodile Farm, Bangkok The Oriental Hotel, Bangkok River Market, Bangkok snake shows elephant shows and rides monkey shows Chinatown, Bangkok (but you MUST walk through the little alleyways with all the venders) Phuket Phi Phi Islands Phang Nga Bay that should hold you over for a couple months Others http://www.tourismthailand.org/... http://www.gothailand.com/indexvisit.htm... http://www.lonelyplanet.com/worldguide/d... must do the tourist bit in bangkok -plenty to see .Eat loads of thai food & get a suit made for @拢60 =cashmere wool, buy loads of ladies shoes =199baht a pair. vist patpong night market good hotel in bangkok = bel-air princess -great location & good price been 5 times in 4 years I know it might sound like a mad idea but do not try and spend some time in Bangkok. So many people rush down to the islands and miss ut on some great things to do and see in Bangkok. I woul ddoign things such as buying a tailor amde suit or dress (my wife got our wedding clothes made there), visit the main palace there, go on the water taxi, go to a decent jazz club etc. You can find everythign you possibly need to know in the Bangko or Thailand Lonely Planet travel guide. We also used http://www.holiday-velvet.com/bangkok... to book a rental apartment. I am not sure of your budget but they were good. I think the best thing abt being in Thailand is just - "being" - in Thailand - meet Thai people, eat Thai food - let your trip unravel slowly in front of you - take it easy.. relax, don't rush abt and feel you have to do this or that.. W/o knowing your interests, I won't bother with recommendations - but best to come here w/no particular plans and let your interests carry you - if you are open, things will happen for you here... so, toss out your must see list, kiss g-bye your have to do list - and if a couple of days disappear on a beach, in a lounge chair, eating papaya salad - ahhhhh, thats the good life... You will love it there because of the diversity of each area. Bangkok is urban, busy; a twelve-ring circus! Phuket is a big more laid-back, touristy and has the beautiful beaches AoNang is less populated, has gorgeous beaches and sight-seeing to the neighboring islands. PhiPhi is a touristy tropical area but a must-see The people are friendly, food and lodging is very reasonable, and I'd go back in a heartbeat! Enjoy!!! |
