Is Bangkok Suitable for Your Holiday?

That was my first time touch down Bangkok and here my first impression about Bangkok. Well i will share you just about my opinion, so no offense if there's something that not in to you. Just comment and share yours if probably you have different thought with me.

Okay, because of the mistake of buying flight ticket, so me and my team (my boyfie, my cousin and my cousin's friend) went Bangkok just for 3 days 2 night a.k.a we arrived at night and will go to Phuket 2 days after which means we just had 1 and half day to go around Bangkok in that time.

We just could make it to:

- Chao Phraya River. (Pay 15 Baht for 1 trip)

- Wat Arun Temple. (Pay 50 Baht)

- Wat Pho Temple.

- Some temple around Wat Arun.

- Chatuchak market.

(I bought 1 Baht = 424 Rupiah in that time)

Yeah that's it, even we didn't go to many places. But trust me, it was so exhausted. But anyway, I visited any places by public transportation and probably because of that i felt exhaust easily. Are there any other reasons? Absolutely! Here my impression just begin.

Good Impression:

- The foods is really cheap! and I love Thai food so much.

- Still about food, Fresh fruits and pork are easily to get anywhere.

- "Ponds powder" just 25Baht in Seven Eleven. (I bought in Jakarta with price 50k Rupiah means around 120 Baht)

- I love my hostel and this is so important for me because there was my only place that i can relax and rest well after explore Bangkok. (I will share you in my other post about this!)

- The peoples around are so friendly and nice.

Bad Impression:

- Super duper hot, i don't know Jakarta or Bangkok which hotter but really Bangkok is really hot.

- Bangkok is crowded and traffic jam anywhere.

- I don't really like the Urban Structure, like BTS (Bangkok's Skytrain) has 2 level above. It looks so messy for me.

- The last, I have expectation that i can get cheap clothes there, but when i went Chatucak Market and when i wanted to buy something in any stores, then I tried to convert the price to Rupiah. Then actually the price is same as Jakarta's. At the end, i bought not that many as i thought.

My other impression that make me super confused but impressed in the same time such as:

When i was going to Chatucak Market, I entered garden then suddenly all people there were freeze a.k.a stand up and do nothing.

I really confused in that time, so I posted on my Instagram Story then my friend and my cousin told me that "Probably it because there's someone play Thai's National Song and they have to respect their National Song by stand up, silence and do nothing".

I'm so impressed because i saw no one there look not care about it, otherwise all people looked obedient and it's cool!

So the conclusion is, which type you are? Food hunter or Nice place hunter?

If you are okay with pork and love food so much! So Damn! Bangkok is heaven!

But if you are looking for a nice place to rest that you can walk casually regardless of work, then i think Bangkok is not the answer.

Actually i am a typical of nice place hunter. So for me, Bangkok is not really good for holiday.

Yeah that's it my Bangkok first impression dear diary, see you!

Btw i will post about:

- Hostel that i stay.

- Phuket and Phiphi Island, and.

- My Thailand budget.

I will 3 posts above randomly!

So, stay tune!
