Thailand Bucket List

-

Today’s post is by Tom and Anna - https://www.adventureinyou.com - and is about the Thailand Bucket List: Guide to Exploring the best of Thailand - https://www.adventureinyou.com/thailand/bucket-list-guide/

Here is their list of things to do in Bangkok & Central Thailand.

“While Bangkok is a big metropolitan city, however, if you venture just a little bit further, you will be pleasantly surprised with quiet neighborhoods and pleasant historical gold mines like the UNESCO heritage sites in Ayutthaya or the beautiful wildlife by Khao Yai National Park.”



1: Visit the Grand Palace in Bangkok and marvel at the intricately designed temples and palaces – this is a must for everyone who visits Bangkok - https://goo.gl/maps/kre2eEaHhEL2 


2: Cruise down the River Chao Phraya – you might get a little wet.

3: People watch in the busy streets of Khao San Road – you will certainly meet other people watching you! - https://goo.gl/maps/bHRfPEZQLUE2 
  
4: Dare yourself to eat a few bugs and crickets – surprisingly healthy, then how about the scorpions on a stick!!!?


5: Watch a Traditional Muay Thai fight – not for the squeamish

6: Shop till you drop in Chatuchak Market - https://youtu.be/ndeLupPn7Og -  and many of Bangkok’s Traditional markets – remember to bring an empty bag with you or a rucksack and check  the items fit in your suitcase when you go home – please remember Buddha figurines are not for decoration and will be confiscated by the Airport Officials.

7: Eat your weight in Pad Thai, Tom Yum and all the other delicious Thai street food – this is everywhere!


8: Visit the Historic City of Ayutthaya – a place which is submerged in culture and history - https://goo.gl/maps/otPDkKwQjZP2 
  
9: Visit the floating market in Bangkok and watch the chaos of vendors float by – try some of the food prepared by the chefs and marvel as they are able to balance their cooking

10: Go skydiving in Pattaya

11: Go Trekking in Khao Yai National Park to see the incredible wildlife.

This is just a drop in the ocean – the list continues next week here or the complete list is here - https://www.adventureinyou.com/thailand/bucket-list-guide/ - and we would also like you to stay with us at one of our Cape and Kantary Hotels. You will not be disappointed.

The Island of Artisans

Each week we post a link to an article in Bangkok 101 - and the article today is about ‘ The Island of Artisans ’ -  “Visiting the urban oasis of Koh Kret is like taking a step back in time”  – original words by Bruce Scott. A little north of Bangkok is the island of Koh Kret. Interestingly it w as not originally an isl and but in 1722 King Taisra dug a canal so that the boats would not have to follow the meandering Chao Phraya river. This canal gradually got bigger and became a river – Lat Klet. And visiting the island you may think that this was the last time that there was modernization here. After arriving on a small ferry from Pak Kret and the lovely Buddhist Temple of Wat Sanam Nuea it is simple to rent a bicycle and cycle around the island – here’s a route -  http://bit.ly/2wNx6Nr . And it is even better because cars are not allowed on the island, although the way through the mark ets can be a little narrow. ...

A presentation was recently given by  The Thai Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals(TSPCA)  at the Lifestyle Hall, 2nd floor, Siam Paragon.  One focus of the event was to highlight the need for there to be no rabies in Thailand – #setzeronorabies – dog licensing, large-scale vaccination and education have been successful in combating and eliminating rabies in many developed countries.  Another focus was on the abandonment of dogs after they are no longer wanted in their home. A longer version can be seen here -  https://youtu.be/dOojwZAIupE “Love Don’t Leave’ is the tagline that the TSPCA has used to highlight this too common occurrence, similar to the  British RSPCA  slogan - "A dog is for life, not just for Christmas". At Cape and Kantary Hotels, we actively support  #SOSChildrensVillages and w e do not serve foie gras, birds’ nest orshark’s fin in our restaurants and we also stand firmly ag...
