Re: Advise On Bangkok Htls N Temples Pls.

....to be continued..

As for temple,there's more that wat i can mention,will only recommend the popular ones,Wat Phra Khiew(emerald buddha),Wat Pho(Reclining buddha) Wat Arun(temple of dawn),Wat Rakang (Somdet /Ah Chan Tow temple) Wat Saket (golden mount),Wat Benchamophilat(Marble temple) are one of the few places of interest/ tourist attraction.The 1st 4 temples are close to one another, where eg. Wat Arun is located opp of Wat Pho.Just take a river boat/ferry to the opp will do.Bring along the map & dun be afraid to ask around if u r uncertain as most ppl there r friendly & willingly to help. Remember to change more small notes for joss-oil & charity...And also ur camera to capture some nice shots...Be polite & if possible learn to speak simple thai,this might help to impress the ppl there.In not time, u will then realise that u r in the land of smiles
