I have done so many researches on BKK before going for a 4D3N trip last week, honestly speaking I have been preparing for months since tickets were bought. Airasia early bought tix as usual (whispering in my mind that one fine day I am gonna take Thai Airway/ MAS I dont care =P)
I have browsed through many travel webs online for eg Cari forum, backpackers sites and etc to have a look at their travel itinerary. Pretty much variety though, yet basically all tourists choose to visit the same places. So I had troubles arranging and modifying my itinerary again and again.
Hmm, for people who are planning to visit BKK on a self-touring basis, and co-incidentally are reading my blog, I wanna share my itinerary with you all because even though its fun, the process of looking at tourist attractions thinking of how to go IS VERY ANNOYING. Everyone will tell you different route to arrive at a destination and you will end up having everything jumbled up.
Hence my sister and I came up with the following itinerary, but due to insufficient time we didnt get to go to some worthgoing places.
Day 1- Arrive at Suvarnabhumi International Airport, Bangkok. (I have heard the news that starting from 2012 Oct 1st, Airasia will arrive at another airport terminal in Bangkok which is kinda far and inconvenient. So remember to double check before departing.)
Day 2- Chatuchak Market in the morning. Feel funny seeing alot of people with a trolley bag to stuff in what they have bought. But things are so cheap that you feel sorry for yourself if you dont buy =.=
Day 4- Planned to go to Big C Hypermarket but didnt make it because sister was sick thanks to the hotel food. So had another piece of my favorite Footlong Cheese Sausage in 7-11 and had a funny time in search of pharmacy and English-speaking doctor in the town.
THE END. Didnt manage to complete my trip exactly as planned but basically it was a great one. I think I like this city.
Next time must go to Khao San Road and Asiatique riverfront!

- Transportation to city is pretty convenient in Bangkok *thumbs up*. Taxi, bus and airport railway link are a few good choices which are economical too =)
- Check-in at Take A Nap hotel.
- 1st stop- Terminal 21. Have been hearing lots on the unique architecture and toilets are a must-visit.
- Dinner at Yaowarat/ Chinatown. The famous T&K restaurant serving local Thai seafood. (ok, not a restaurant, just gerai tepi jalan)
 |
| Terminal 21 shopping mall. Every floor of the mall is themed and well constructed. |
 |
| Chinatown! |
 |
| This is a very famous stall selling coconut water and icecream. Very yummy especially under the hot scorching sun hugging you with UV rays. Next post will be on food! =) |
- #remember to eat lots and lots of street food.
- Went back to hotel for shower and rest, then head to Madam Tussauds Museum @ Siam Discovery Centre. 50% off for entry after 5pm, which I personally think its more worthy as the museum is not very huge. Overall good rating as my mom really thought Steven Gerrard was standing right in front of the shopping mall entrance =P
- Dinner at Fuji restaurant, Bangkok. Serve sumptuous food and one of the best I have eaten. (Maybe because I haven't had a good collection of Japanese food though, India tak ada punya for sure and if ada pun I wont risk my life to suffer from Shigella dysentery.) Missing the soft shelled crabs now T.T
Day 3- Four faced Buddha is always a must visit whenever we go to Bangkok. Crowded as usual, especially when the sun is so strong you feel like collapsing.
- Walk to Platinum Wholesale Mall and start shopping like crazy people. There is a very nice security guard who can speak Mandarin so he guided us to the famous chicken rice shop nearby for lunch. #shopping spree! Definitely a heaven for shoppers who love to buy inexpensive stuff. Imagine, in this era of economic crisis you still can find a cute tee at RM10. Who doesnt go mad?! =)

| Love the cloud! |

| UPT kit being as common as facial tissue in Thailand *surprised* |
- Wanted to ban leng-leng first then attend dinner at Thailand's tallest building but due to time insufficiency we went with sticky(maybe with odour?) skins and packs of newly bought stuff. Being Thailand's tallest building it disappointed me a little because I expected it to be as good as those in Dubai. Yea Burj Khalifa. Food was pretty ok but everyone suffered from a bad stomach upset the next day- starting vomiting and cramping.
Day 4- Planned to go to Big C Hypermarket but didnt make it because sister was sick thanks to the hotel food. So had another piece of my favorite Footlong Cheese Sausage in 7-11 and had a funny time in search of pharmacy and English-speaking doctor in the town.
