Unforgetable Thailand

Sawadee..........

The moment I arrived safely at Suvarnabhumi Airport makes me feel excited and can't wait to explore Thailand. It was unbelievable that I step up my leg in the land of White Elephant, Thailand.  The sparkling neon makes the city vibrant and alive.  It is true.... Bangkok is the busy city with traffic jam everywhere.  On my way to the hotel, saw the striking color of the taxi with blue, pink and green.




Staying in Citin Pratunam makes it worth for money.  Even though there are also a lots of bad comment about this hotel, but for me it is worth for the money.  Located nearby Pratunam Market makes you easy to buy almost everything you need.  However, due to the rain weather that night, I did not going out except having my dinner.

The journey started the next day.  Using ferry to across Chao Phraya River go to Temple of Dawn.  The magnificent colored statues makes the temple unique.  It is must have for anyone who wish to visit Thailand.



On my way to Southeast Thailand, Pattaya we visit Sri Racha Tiger Zoo.  It was a good place for us to see the tiger while enjoying the nature.
The journey continue to Pattaya. The sunny, warm and breezy air makes you feel fresh.  The clean beach and clear blue sky water sure makes you fall in love with Pattaya.  





If you visit Pattaya, don't forget to watch Tiffany Show.  The entertainers are the professional transvestite.   

While resting in Pattaya, we enjoying Thai massage after watching the show.

The next day heading to Coral Island.  It is really clean, white, smooth sand beach.

Later at night having fun at Pattaya Walking Street.  It was unbelievable to see all those thing inside Pattaya.  It was alive yet damn to be true to see all those things... ;)









The next day heading back to Bangkok.  Do some shopping before going back to Malaysia.  That night having our dinner at steamboat restaurant only 100 baht per person!! It was beautiful with the view of Chao Phraya River situated nearby the Rama VIII bridge.

On my way back to the hotel, drop by at the Grand Palace taking photos.  It was shining golden color palace light up the surrounded place.

It was indeed the most unforgetable experience visiting Thailand.  With its own unique culture makes your wanting for some more as you explore it.

Serikin- the border market

If you are in Kuching, don't forget to go to Serikin.  It is the market that sells product from Indonesia whereby Indonesian is the seller.  This market open every Saturday until Sunday afternoon.  After that, the seller will be back again to Indonesia.  It is easy for Indonesian to sells their product here because it is near to Kalimantan border.  The best thing about this place is, it is safe because you can buy Indonesia product in Malaysia.  Besides that, it is cheap rather than you buy in Kuching itself.

Fairy Cave

Visiting Fairy Cave give me a memorable memory because it was the last day of my semester before ended.  It is one of the most beautiful cave I even seen.  Wind Cave situated at Bau, just 22km from Kuching.  As you enter the cave, the trail quite slippery and its really dark.  But after you reach the heart of the cave, you will be amazed with the beautiful green cave with golden light enter the cave from outside.



 Wear your cap and tracking shoes and don't forget to bring your torch light.
