Free Way To Bangkok

Bangkok in the eyes of tourists Indonesia became popular after people get bored to Singapore and Kuala Lumpur . Moreover AirAsia direct flight from Jakarta Bangkok is only about 3 hours 25 minutes , flying at 16:20 and arrived 19:45 .Arrive at AirportSwarnabhumi Airport is the international gateway entrance to Bangkok . Airport is relatively new and large , but efficient . Clear signposts written in Thai and English . Immigration officer may seem unprofessional and a bit slow but no problem .To reach the city center , shuttle bus available which you can purchase tickets on arrival at the Arrival Hall . There are 4 bus lines , which is popular with tourists towards Sukhumvit and Khao San Road , so make sure you know the location of the hotel before buying a bus ticket .Starting in early 2010 , provided the airport train into the city . Unfortunately I have not tried it so can not give much information about ticket prices and . Airport rail link was stopped at a station like Makasan ( interchange with MRT ) and Phaya Thai ( interchange with BTS ) .
Transportation in BangkokBangkok is also not free from congestion , but not too stressful than Jakarta because motorists are more orderly and a little amount of motorists .




Average pavement Bangkok is convenient for pedestrians . Sidewalk width is generally 2 meters to 4 meters on the main roads . I think bringing stroller also no trouble .Prepare your time to mature , spare enough time for traffic . Using the BTS elevated train certainly the most efficient choice for tourists .Bangkok has several alternative modes of transportation , ranging from taxis , city buses , tuk - tuk , boat across the river , up to mass train called BTS SkyTrain and MRT .BTS SkyTrain was built train line hovering over the highway , while the MRT / Subway Bangkok operates underground and now only has 1 line .




Transportation in Bangkok already getting ahead with the opening of the 3rd lane BTS SkyTrain and MRT line . So to date , Bangkok has had 4 train line mass , 3 lines are above ground , and 1 MRT line form .BTS SkyTrain ( only locals know says BTS , do not try to ask people with the keyword ' SkyTrain ' ) currently has 3 lines , with code N ( North ) , E ( East ) , and S ( South ) along the track served , and is numbered as E1 E2 ff . All paths meet at the station SIAM . All of this is located on the right path Chao Phraya river except last 2 lines S station ( S7 and S8 ) . One station was coded W ( West ) is the National Stadium as an extension of the path S.BTS train tickets can be purchased at any station , a one- way ticket , day pass ( THB 100 ) , or a monthly pass . One -way tickets must be purchased from ticket machines use coins ( change paper money into coins at the counter staff ) . Prices are determined according to the number of stations you are going through , it can be seen directly beside the ticket machine . Suppose for 1-3 stations , calculated as 1 stage , then you can just press one button , and enter the required number of coins .
Bangkok BTS Ticket MachineUnfortunately, tickets can not be used in the BTS MRT . You have to buy another ticket types for MRT . One -way ticket MRT coin shaped like a casino , purchased from automatic ticket machines ( receive up to THB 100 banknotes and coins ) . How to use it is to put a coin in the barrier gate at the entrance , and exit at the destination station when the coin is inserted into the slot to open the barrier gate . There is also a magnetic card that can be recharged ( like Singapore ez - link or HK Octopus ) if you plan on staying in Bangkok for a few days .As a tourist , using SkyTrain and MRT Bangkok is highly recommended given the congestion that is almost the same as Jakarta . Although it does not cover the entire city , but almost all the places to shop ( Siam Paragon et al ) and some attractions passed or are close to the train line .If the attraction can not be reached by train mass , you should still use it to the closest station , connected with a taxi ride .Bangkok taxis are available quite a lot , but it would be quite difficult to find an empty taxi in the rain . Generally taxi drivers AT ALL can not speak English , so we recommend you bring hotel address or point you in English that include Thai language . Taxi fare (in my opinion ) is not too expensive , roughly the same as Jakarta taxi fare , and of course if the air- ride four can share the cost .There are many companies taxi operator , and most do not want to use the meter. Quite difficult to explain where the taxis are always on the meter because the company's name or inscription around the cab body written in Thai . So before you take a taxi , try to make sure the driver is willing to use the meter .Bangkok city bus in ThaiUsing city buses have a lot of research and courage because all bus routes worm written in Thai , so that can only be read bus numbers .As for the tuk- tuk ride pretty much hung around the hotel and roadsides . Rates negotiable in English and need to try to ride mumpung in Bangkok . It feels a bit like hell CNG bajaj in Jakarta . The fee was actually just a little cheaper than a cab ride . Incidentally my hotel stay provide free tuk - tuk to the highway between ( because of the hotel is in a small way ) .Hotels in BangkokFor business hotel , was approximately the same rate as Jakarta . Arguably hotel is very much available in Bangkok , so the location is decisive . Location -star hotel that is strategically located in the Silom area , Sukhumvit and Siam . International chain hotels such as Accor , Intercontinental Group , et al available but the numbers are far less than local hotel .

    Sukhumvit Road is one of the longest road in Bangkok , such analogies from Blok M to Monas . This road served some elevated stations BTS . This is the advanced way Rama I. Make sure you 've read a map to the location of the hotel if you choose to stay in Sukhumvit .I try to list some of the results of surfing and hotel reviews , written rate is forecast to double - bed per - night .

    Rembrandt Hotel , Sukhumvit . Locations on the road is rather small so it was pretty quiet , just 5-10 mins For towards the BTS Asok / Sukhumvit MRT . ~ USD 80 .

    Ibis Bangkok Siam Hotel , located almost directly opposite MBK Mall , really a plus point . So spending a full hand , take home stay hotel and ready to shop again .

    Ibis Nana Bangkok , Sukhumvit . A new hotel of Accor is still in the area of ​​Sukhumvit - Nana . ~ USD 45 .

    Novotel Bangkok on Siam Square . This hotel was besieged several practical biggest shopping mall in Bangkok . The location is very strategic , Siam BTS station there in front of the hotel .

    Sam 's Lodge Hotel , Sukhumvit . Classified budget hotel with a location simply by the BTS Asok . ~ USD 30

    Unico Express , Sukhumvit . Room rate is cheap , fairly spacious rooms , free wifi , compensated to a location not too close to the BTS . ~ USD 30 .As for the budget hostels for backpackers , Khao San Road has become the epicenter . Its location is located in north Grand Palace , lined with cheap lodging dorm prices around USD 15/person . In this way can also find restaurants to souvenir sellers and Thai massage .Bangkok Tourist AttractionsBangkok map is available everywhere including when you first arrive at the airport. This is usually illustrated with maps clearly some major tourist attractions in the city of Bangkok is ready for your cruise . Due to time constraints I did not get to explore much of Bangkok , next time I will complete this section again .Grand Palace and Wat Phra KaeoBangkok is a major tourist destination , a palace complex with a number of temples . Do not miss the visit Wat Phra Kaeo , a temple containing the Emerald Buddha . Coming here , preferably morning , or at least 1pm because closed at 3.30 . Costs 500 Baht for tourists , unless you can pretend Thai language :) . To get to here , there is no direct access to the MRT or BTS . Using the MRT to Hua Lamphong Station and continued by taxi or tuk - tuk . Most likely this place will be filled with thousands of tourists and agent sbo , so try to arrive as early as possible .Complex seen from the courtyard entranceOrnaments seen from nearWat Pho ( Reclining Buddha )Object known , the position of lying Buddha , the location is quite a distance from the Grand Palace .Wat ArunLocated opposite Wat Pho , you have to cross the Chao Phaya river ( boat rental ) to achieve it . It features a porcelain pagoda wall is shimmering light overwritten . This place is less crowded and quieter than the Grand Palace .Arun Wat complex from a distancePrepare untun foot climb steep stairsPatpong RoadIn addition to the above places of religious tourism , Bangkok is also famous for the worldly tourist ( if you say so ) . Patpong has been known since the '80s as nightclubs . Starting from the Go - Go Bar ( bar with dancers on the table ) to Thai girl shows offered here ( codename : pingpong show) . You do not need to get into the bar if it does not like, simply trace the streets while a look around the souvenir items and clothes that are sold in the middle of the road ( as he peered into the bar ) . To go here , go up and down in the BTS Sala Daeng or MRT Silom . Be careful not to turn into one of Silom Soi 4 ( Gay Street ) .Madam Tussaud 's Wax MuseumThis place is in the mall Siam Square , snubs like Madam Tussaud's in Hong Kong or in London , there is excess wax figure of President Soekarno in addition to several local artists Thailand .Cheap shopping in BangkokFor that class, Mangga Dua Jakarta , Indonesia ordinary people like to MBK Mall ( BTS : National Stadium ) .MBK MallAtmosphere in MBK MallThe multi-storey MBK mall at least 8 . Downstairs devoted to shopping for clothes , bags and souvenir . While there are 3-4 floors accessories shop for gadget / mobile .

Amazingly most employees can be a little Indonesian stores because so many bandar are here !
Chatuchak Weekend Marketonly open Saturday & Sunday , BTS : Mo - Chit or MRT : Chatuchak , Suan Lum Night is a replacement Bazaar , could be the first place you visit when arriving in Bangkok because it is the opening hours of the afternoon until midnight . It was like senen market in Jakarta , such as tourist souvenir sell clothes , linen , fridge magnets , sandals , watches up asphalt . Science of Mangga Dua bid must be practiced here , can be started from the half- price and rooster fights calculator . The complex is quite large , make sure you remember the location early to go home .

Daerah ini berdekatan dengan khao san, dan disini lah dulunya kota kerajaan yang lama. Disini King Rama I, menggali terusan sedemikian rupa sehingga sedemikian rupa menjadikan pusat kota menjadi seperti suatu pulau. Oleh sebab itu disebut sebagai pulau Ratanakosin.
