***Sightseeing Tours in Bangkok***
BANGKOK
THE CITY OF ANGELS Thailand's capital
and gateway city is BANGKOK. Founded in 1782 by King
Rama I and located on the banks of the Chao Phraya
River, a few kilometres upstream from its outflow
into the Gulf of Siam,Bangkok sprawls across a flat
plain. It is the capital in every sense of the word.
It is where the Royal Family resides, it is also the
seat of government and administration, and it is the
focal point for virtually all major industrial, commercial
and financial activities. It is the country's main
port and home to one tenth of the Kingdom's population.
"Krung Thep" translates as "city of
Angles" and is the first in the whole string
of illustrious titles that properly define the place
and, incidentally, earn a listing in the Guinness
Book of Records as the world's longest place name.
To the Thais, Bangkok is always Krung Thep, the spiritual
and symbolics and as well as the physical heart of
the nation. Initial impressions are of a modern, dynamic
metropolis bustling with businesses. The skyline is
dominated by thrusting highrise buildings, luxury
hotels, department stores and shopping malls. |
