When you are a beginner and you are traveling to Bangkok for the first time it is not easy to acclimatize. Indeed there is a lot of noise, the driving can be chaotic, it is very hot and the city is huge, we can see large buildings without end and feel the pollution. We can thus enter an environment that can be a little complicated at first. For these reasons it is important to have elements of information to be prepared. If visitors do not know what to expect they may be disappointed by their first impressions of the city. We must not stop at these first impressions.

Thus between the skyscrapers and the sophisticated shopping centers, there are always the remarkable temples and all the historical heart of Bangkok totally preserved. The traditions also remain and do not be surprised to find a great spiritual house built to bring good luck, next to almost every major building, or to see groups of Buddhist monks alms early in the morning.
In Bangkok you can enjoy the new and old, admire the historic district and enjoy more modern elements such as shopping centers all the many cafes. The food is also excellent and there are many typical dishes to enjoy.
Extremely touristic country, Bangkok and the hearts of South East Asia. The Thai people are friendly, hospitable and in a good mood. They are also proud to be the only country in the region that has never been colonized. The inhabitants have a warm and welcoming character.
