Bangkok-traveller tips

Apart from being a lazy blogger I am also a traveler but not so lazy. Thankfully !! Well, this was my second visit to Bangkok. I must say I expected much more :(. Like any other Eastern Asian countries Bangkok is flooded with shopping opportunities and I must say, it isn't as cheap I expected it to be. However, Chakuchat market is a blessing for shoppers. Unfortunately it's a weekend market. They say it's worlds biggest weekend market. I am not sure if it is but I can guarantee it is big enough to even for whole day shopping. Chakuchat market is very easy to reach. MTR and BTS rail links are all the way till Chakuchat park. It's the easiest, cheapest and most comfortable way to get there unless you take a cab. By the way MTR is name of rail link that run underground and BTS is the on that runs on sky.Cabs in Bangkok is something you should be careful about. Most do not run on meter and I suggest do not encourage non metered taxi. Even when you take taxi at Bangkok airport from a meter taxi the taxi guys do not use the meter, best way is to you use airport link rail line. Most of the road side shops do not have price tag and if you are not a good bargainer then you will go back with feeling of not getting a good deal. MBK mall in Siam is good choice to shop but I know for sure it's expensive. Don't miss road side old Volkswagen bar joints in Sukumvit. 

Cowboy street is known for night clubs and most of them are to rip you pocket. Baccara requires you buy a beer for entry. There are others like spice girls not do not recommend. Infact, you will bored sooner than you think. However, it's a good place to hangout for beer. Massage is highly recommended for massage. These are typical Thai sexy massage parlour. I recommend leg massage. There are enough tourist assistance counters. Adventure travellers do not get tempted by road side adventure survival kits. Thery no more than fancy non dependable products.
