The Free Travel Strategy of Single Women Entering Phuket Alone

I have been back from Thailand for a long time and have always forgotten to write travel notes. Today, I accidentally opened the photos taken in Phuket last year and suddenly had an impulse to travel to Thailand again. Unfortunately, I can’t take any action. Ha ha ~

Before traveling, I had been posting on the Internet to find a companion to travel, but I didn’t meet the right one at the right time, so I decided to go to Thailand alone with my bag on my back ~

Here are some preparations before going out.

Ticket ~ I booked a round-trip air ticket for Asian Airlines Guangzhou-Bangkok-Phuket-Bangkok-Guangzhou, with a total of only 500RMB including tax. Why is it so cheap? Because I bought the free ticket for Asian Airlines. Ha ha, that more than 500 is just tax, but now Asian Airlines seems to have no air ticket in 0 yuan. In short, it is luck.

Visa ~ it is best for everyone to find a travel agency before going * *, now it seems to be about 280

Hotel: If you are traveling for the first time, you’d better give the hotel for the first night first. The hotel behind you can find it slowly after you arrive. Don’t think of the local decision. I made this mistake. I will tell you the following travel notes.

Luggage: Personally, I don’t think it is necessary to take too many clothes. I just have a pair of slippers, a few T-blood pieces, a few short jeans, and I got on the plane in slippers. I can buy sunscreen in Thailand. I remember that Nivea’s 50 + sunscreen seems to be only over 250 Thai baht, which should be cheaper than the domestic ones.

OK, that’s all the preparation work, and I won’t talk about it either.

Oh, by the way, there is also a question of changing money.

The Bank of China does not have much Thai baht, But also to call to make an appointment first, Not necessarily, So let’s give you a tip to save money. If you have Huaxia Bank there, go there to do a card and deposit the money. When you go to Thailand, you can go directly to the ATM with UnionPay logo to withdraw money. The exchange rate is high, about 1: 4.7. Moreover, Huaxia Bank does not charge handling fees for the first time every day. It is not cost-effective to exchange RMB for Thai baht, which is generally about 1: 3.9.

DAY1, Bangkok

The arrival hall of Bangkok Airport is on the second floor, so travelers who want to go to Kaoshan Road can go directly to the first floor and take the Airport Express to 150B Kaoshan Road. Before I set out, I booked a single room on the Internet about 600B, The hotel has a nice environment, It is very close to Kaoshan Road, There are many restaurants on the roadside downstairs. It was quiet at night, I forgot to call what’s name ~ I am lazy personally, Rest at the hotel, Instead of going to downtown Bangkok, It’s too hot outside, I’d rather freeze the air conditioner in my room, After the rest, In the evening, go to the small travel agency outside the hotel and book the bus ticket to the airport the next day. Then I went to Kaoshan to wait for an Indonesian girl. We made an online appointment to go to the bar together in the evening. There are good and bad things about traveling alone. The bad thing is that a person is a little boring, The good thing is that you can meet many friends. However, if you meet a male foreigner who comes to strike up a conversation at a bar, There is no need to classify it as a friend. Most of them go hunting ~ Ha ha, the Indonesian girl and I met an American boy Jack in a bar. Later he told us that he was sitting next to us on purpose, waiting for us to say HI first. Ha ha, it seems that there are many ways to strike up a conversation ~ In short, we had a good time that night.

Bangkok is only a temporary stop for me, so I won’t make much introduction.

DAY2, Phuket

Get up early in the morning, Pack up your parcels, Check out at the front desk, Then wait for the bus to come to the airport at the hotel. The bus there is the van we call here. They pick up different guests from different hotels. Then they will be sent to the airport together. I originally expected it to be 2 hours in advance. Who knows the racing car? I almost missed the plane. Funny thing is, when I was stuck in traffic, the driver asked me what time the plane was. I told him that he was going to miss the plane. He looked more anxious than me. Ha ha, the Thais were still relatively simple. After getting off the bus, I ran to the counter to jump the queue at a speed of 100 meters. Ha ha. Fortunately, the flight was a little late, so I could change my boarding pass ~ and then rushed to the security check to board the plane, so don’t take a bus to the airport at least 3 hours in advance next time like me.

An hour later, I finally arrived at my destination, Phuket.

Since I thought of Phuket before I went to the hotel, So I didn’t book a hotel first, Only when I got off the plane did I find out that After that, I didn’t know where to go ~ so I booked a hotel near Patong Beach at the airport travel agency. 700B, Later facts proved that such a decision was wrong. First of all, this hotel is very hard to find. The cab driver left me on the side of the patong road, Then I was carrying a heavy backpack one by one. I started my first day of Phuket in the big sun. Sun, hungry and tired, the people in Phuket are more powerful. They ask them how to get to the hotel. They know and will not tell you unless you take his taxi. Later, they finally met a warm-hearted little Indian boy who took me to the hotel and gave him a tip. He didn’t want it, saying it was just help. It seems that there are still good people.

When I arrived at the hotel and entered the room, I began to regret it. The conditions in this room were very simple, the air conditioner was loud, and there was a mouldy smell. Later, when I went out to eat, I walked around the outside, only to find that the prices of other hotels outside were the same as here, the conditions were better than here, and there was a free wireless network. Therefore, poor travelers should make a good route first and go there to look for a hotel. They don’t have to book a good hotel first, because they don’t know how the hotel’s facilities are ~

After a rest at the hotel, In the evening, I went to the street of the legendary Phuket bar. At bangla road, It’s like this, There are many transvestites there who go to the bar street to take photos with others to earn extra money after performing. I secretly took some photos of transvestites. Ha ha ha, but then again, those transvestites are very beautiful, with good skin and good figure. If I don’t know in advance that they are transvestites, I can’t see the men at all. As a woman, I am extremely jealous, hey hey

This is Phuket’s Bar Street

This is a stage set up in a bar. Girls dance on it to attract tourists.

After half a day’s shopping, I wanted to go back, but I thought that traveling was to relax, so I ran to the bar named CLUB and ordered a bottle of beer. Who knew it was this unintentional sitting that changed my later trip.

Phuket Island 4-day Practical Introduction

This trip is a rest in a pure sense, no mood, no thoughts, pure relaxation and forget, so do not want to mention any emotional fragments, just to share practical information and comments!

1) schedule: we stayed at Absolute Sea Pearl Resort on padang beach, which is a hotel for Resort members. This time, I took advantage of my friend’s light to make the trip and also enjoyed the private tour guide service here. Simply put, a local Chinese tour guide will arrange the tour itinerary. As long as you choose the desired daily itinerary and pay the money, everything will be fine. Our final choice is day 1: FantaSea carnival and show; Day two: phuket half-day tour around the island; Day 3: diving and sightseeing at pipi island. All three included a meal, and we were given a price of 6,250 baht per person. Other than that, we just sunbathe on the beach, go shopping, eat… Also, the taxi fare from the airport to padang beach is about 550-600 baht (phuket’s taxi industry is a monopoly and expensive, with a one-way trip in padang costing 200 baht).

2) padang beach: from the map, padang beach is located on the southwest coast of phuket island. It is known as “the busiest beach”. The coast is dotted with bars, restaurants, stalls and countless small shops and supermarkets. If you live in padang beach, you don’t need to take too many clothes and daily necessities, because there is everything! From bikinis, slippers and sun hats to the local “SARONG SARONG “, it’s okay to forget your contact lens solution! However, due to the hubbub and convenience, padang beach made me feel too noisy and chaotic. I was very disappointed on the first day, but I gradually got used to walking to the beach a few steps away in the hustle and bustle, and the enthusiasm of padang gradually became lovely. That’s for another day. Bar street is very famous, we picked any one to experience, a bottle of beer is about 200-250 baht. Can’t give you any more information without going to the special “show”! Ha ha.

In particular, the temperature in phuket is usually hot and humid, but not stifling, generally the highest around 32 degrees, there are occasional showers, but most of the time is very short.

3) food: many people like Thai food, while in padang, there are more seafood restaurants that feel a little Chinese, as well as Italian restaurants. The Seafood was delicious, and I tried two: Patong Seafood along the beach (black pepper crab, grilled black tiger shrimp, and steamed pomfret. Relatively expensive, about 200-250 yuan per person, it is said to be the oldest restaurant in phuket); And Mr. Good Seafood on rat-u-thit road, a main road parallel to the beach. The price is relatively civilian, but the average person also wants 100-120 yuan). Feeling in phuket prices are not cheap! But you can still treat yourself to a treat. It’s worth a treat! Italian restaurants are all over the floor. At noon on the day I arrived in phuket, I went to a restaurant called Da Mario, which is said to be an Italian chef. However, I do not know whether the environment is too natural, actually a lot of ants on the table! Later, even in our bread basket, I had to hurry to eat away… To experience the local atmosphere, we went to a Buffet restaurant called BBQ Buffet (just next to Da Mario) for dinner on the recommendation of our guide. At 119 baht a person, they serve a variety of marinated pork, chicken, beef, and (but smaller) shrimp, as well as a variety of green vegetables. The way of BBQ is very interesting, the middle of the iron pot is raised, under the hot charcoal, you can barbecue; The sides are low enough for rinsing (but not very comfortable, to be honest, because the fillet in the middle always slips into the soup), and it’s a bit hectic. Anyway, this is cheap enough! I had a good time talking with my boss. Finally, he even sent us a plate of huge shrimp.

4) FantaSea: when first heard, she thought it was just a traditional performance. The arrangement is very thoughtful, after the registration, a special car to the hotel to pick us up at 6 PM on time. FantaSea is located in Kamala (kamara beach) in the north of phuket island. There are strict procedures for ticket change and security check at the entrance, but you can understand the whole process even if you don’t understand the local language. There is no need to worry.

Enter the entrance, in front of you is an amusement park full of music and lights! Along the way, there are all shops selling plush toys and local special products. The price is a buy it now price. The same goods in each shop are also priced according to the standard price, which saves trouble. But they are generally more expensive than other places on the island. A medium-sized elephant doll costs 250 baht (about 50 yuan). There are also open-air singing and dancing performances in the amusement park. You can also take photos with the elephant God walking in the crowd. In addition, there is a small game park, which can exchange 200 baht for a ticket and play 5 games. I’m good at darts. I won two elephants. Ha ha. Enter the cafeteria with * * and have a good meal before the show! However, the contents of the buffet are relatively general. It is worth mentioning that there are white gourd ribs soup, salmon sashimi and fish ball soup.

Finally, it’s time to watch the performance (9 p.m.) and enter the elephant thread. In the corridor, tourists can take photos with the lovely baby elephant (500 baht), and it’s said that there is only chance to take photos with the tiger in Thailand! At the beginning of the performance, in the melodious folk music, two groups of elephants passed through the middle of the theater solemnly. The riders raised their torches and sat on the gorgeous elephant chair. It was amazing and everyone could not help applauding warmly. The next two hours of performance is about the distance between the Chinese rules and the Chinese rules. We have seen too many grand performances in China. Maybe we will be moved a little bit. But it’s worth seeing because of the serious performance of the actors and the help of the elephants. (it should be reminded that mobile phones and cameras are not allowed for the performance, which needs to be deposited before the performance; however, the theater is well managed and convenient to retrieve.)

5) During the tour around the island, we mainly have three projects: the Kalong beach viewing platform, elephant riding, and the Yuyue temple. The sea of Kalong beach is suitable for surfing. The waves are windy and few people swim. The nearby scenic spot overlooks the whole southwest of Phuket Island. The three bays are clearly visible. The open view is refreshing. The breeze blows, and it doesn’t feel hot.

The place where we ride elephants is an elephant Garden (usually arranged by travel agencies, I think it’s almost the same The elephant I rode is called Nicky. It’s said that it’s the biggest one in the whole garden! The trainer was small but smart. He stopped in the open area to take a picture for us. Later, he saw the picture and thought it was pretty good. Later, we gave him 50 baht for consumption according to the guide’s reminder. He was very happy. Sitting on Nicky’s broad back, you can feel his thick dark gray skin. It moves slowly step by step, and we move forward and backward with the rhythm, as if taking a very slow roller coaster. There are some steep slopes along the way. I really pinched a sweat for Nicky. I hope it has always been taken good care of and live a happy life with its trainer…

After lunch, I went to yuechai temple, the oldest temple on Phuket Island, and offered the Buddhist relics, which was very sacred. When I first visited a temple in Thailand, I couldn’t help but feel the peace and simple atmosphere. In Thailand, temples are places of faith, not commercial places. All incense money is voluntary. Incense and lotus, including gold foil for Buddha statues, are taken consciously, which is quite different from that in China. Take off your shoes when you enter the temple. Keep your clothes clean and tidy. Don’t make noise. People quietly worship Buddha, or pray, or sit in silence. The power of faith flows in the building with the breeze through the window lattice, which is moving.

6) Phi Phi Island: I specially arranged a whole day trip to Phi Phi island. Afterwards, I thought it was the most unforgettable and happy day in the whole journey. We got on the bus at 7:00 in the morning and were sent to the ferry of a yacht and speedboat. There were free drinks and baked coconut pancakes from Thailand when we waited for the boat. It was delicious! Soon, the leader of the day introduced the schedule of the day to us: take a 1-hour speedboat to Phi Phi island for the first snorkeling in the shallow sea; arrive at Phi Phi island for a 1-hour stroll and lunch buffet; then start to Phi Phi island for the second snorkeling and swimming, and enjoy the special scenery along the way; start to return at about 3:30, and return to Dudu in an hour Mouth. I’m not very good at swimming. I’m not very interested at first. After putting on the snorkeling equipment clumsily, I began to try snorkeling for the first time in my life. Just in the water, I felt a lot of slippery little things scurrying around me. I adjusted my breath and looked closely. I almost cried out. The water was full of colorful tropical fish! And all kinds of corals are at your feet! As I got used to it, I began to enjoy the underwater world: the tropical fish, big and small, are colorful, and the biggest one is about a foot long. It’s really like the character in “the story of the sea”! It’s a pity that we didn’t see Nemo, but there are sunflowers, umbrella like, branch like or round coral. There are also many sea urchins. It’s a pity that I can’t shoot underwater. There is a fellow Australian. He is very happy to shoot with a special underwater camera. How envious he is! I focused on this magical silent world, filled with wonder and joy.

The beach of Phi Phi island is thinner and whiter than that of Padang. It is said that it’s all coral sand. All the hotels and facilities on the island were rebuilt after the 2004 tsunami. I also prayed silently for the victims of that tragedy… All return to prosperity, people value the life in front of them more, live real, warm, natural, no regrets… In the waters near Little Phi Phi Island, you can also see the famous scenery: under the green water is the white sand, the cliff rises abruptly from the sea, and the green trees are dotted on the dark gray cliff. Thailand’s traditional wooden boats travel on the sea, crossing the calm sea like cutting silk, silent… According to the guide, the attraction appeared in many films, including the famous Jurassic Park.

7) Shopping: the final itinerary is always for shopping. What we plan to bring back from Thailand include: all kinds of tropical dried fruits, preserved meat and loose egg rolls with authentic fragrance, fragrance and essential oil made of Thai spices, as well as the word-of-mouth products in boots drugstore. At first, I bought many mangoes, durian and pineapple in the supermarket in Phuket. Later, I found that there are many in the supermarket, but we bought them cheaply, a package of 40 baht. We recommend that’s Siam specialty store on the first floor of the shopping mall in Patong (Carrefour). The whole floor is full of Thai handicrafts. I have everything I want to buy! And the quality is more reliable. We bought a lot of aromatherapy and essential oil soap there. It’s nice to bring it back to our friends! In the small supermarket next to ocean Plaza on Patong beach, there is a small shop specializing in authentic forest products and dried fruits. The owner is Chinese, so it’s not easy to bargain, because we have no other choice, and her price is still cheaper than the airport, so we bought some. As for the BOOTS drugstore, the recommended Triple C mask and body scrub are recommended. We went to the anniversary store just now. A box of 2 pieces of mask is only 129 baht, which is cheaper than Watsons. In addition, you can buy a beautiful sarong as soon as you arrive in Phuket. It’s also unique to wrap it outside when you wear a swimsuit. Moreover, you can roam freely on the beach, which is very convenient and beautiful for taking photos. We have successfully bargained to 120 yuan a piece (cotton), which is the cheapest price we have heard. It’s still normal about 150 yuan. If Tess’s texture is about twice as expensive. Finally, I would like to remind you that Phuket fruit is super cheap and delicious. We buy several kinds of processed fruits (papaya, grapefruit, pineapple honey, etc.) from the supermarket every day. They are basically 15 baht (3 yuan) per box (large box) This makes us have a rich fruit feast after dinner every night. It’s quite happy. Don’t miss it! I’d like to write here and hope it will help you in your future trip to Phuket!

Children of Thai

2008-02 Kho Phi-phi, Thailand
Their poverty and ignorance, and look up at your eyes, people can’t forget. How can I have the heart to trick them into taking photos with colorful candy? Although countless photography textbooks will proudly recommend this “technique” to you. The children are not fish, the sea fish that flock to the bread. It’s really fun to throw down the bread. It’s fun to surround and intercept the sea fish on your side, which you have never experienced on land. But the children are not fish. They only open their timid black eyes. Their thick black eyelashes roll up. On their dirty little faces, their eyes flow like clear spring water. If you give candy, please be sincere. Don’t take pictures of candy to trick them. If anyone did that, they should be ashamed of their actions. In Gannan, when I picked up my camera and aimed it at an old Tibetan woman who was turning the Sutra, she angrily set up a crutch. So I put down the machine and bowed down to apologize to her. In Gannan, we met two young girls who volunteered to be guides, took us to the heaven burial platform, dodged the monks and chatted with each other easily and excitedly. At last I took a good picture of them. With plateau red on their cheeks, their shy smiles look like flowers. I would rather they were so natural. The subjects give you the most direct and real reaction, so that you can experience their mood, feelings and thoughts. If you want it, don’t want it. Instead of using any means to cheat trust, and then further obtain permission to shoot. The child staggered closer to me, stumbled, and sat on the ground, laughing. lovely child. She waved dirty little hands to me, I was about to squat down to help her, but her mother pulled her over, scolded her loudly, and nodded to apologize to us. I know. My mother is afraid that the children will dirty my skirt. On this island full of luxury hotels and resorts and private beaches, their existence is indeed disharmonious. They live on the other side of the island, which tourists usually don’t go to. There are no fine beaches, only reefs and rubbish. In the evening, the family huddled in a simple wooden house, and in the daytime came to the weaved coast for living. It is said that in Cambodia, poverty is even more shocking. “Boys grow up begging, girls grow up prostitution” — when I saw a photographer write down what he saw, my heart is not generally uncomfortable. Fortunately, Thailand is not so poor. At least the child in front of her, I believe she will do some tourism business when she grows up, such as opening a long tail boat, such as a BBQ stall. Phi Phi Island is full of flowers all over the world. Children are better, more vital, more healthy and tenacious than flowers. They live a better life.

Pai District, Little Fresh and Slow Life!

Knowing that such a place as Pai District was also a coincidence, I visited Duoduo Pai District Inn the year before last to raise funds. Only then did I know that there was such a fresh and beautiful place not far from Chiang Mai.

Thailand has always been the first stop of my plan to go abroad, so it’s a rare holiday that decides this trip to Thailand. I searched a lot of information on the Internet and read a lot of travel notes, which also let me know more about Pai District. Pai District is also a station I must go to in my plan.

I was very lucky to take part in the sleep test and stayed in Pai Yododo Resort, Taimei Manor, Pai District, Thailand. I went to Chiang Mai first and then to Pai District.

Traffic from Chiang Mai to Pai District:

There is an aya service on the right side of Chiang Mai Railway Station Square, which can provide minibuses to Pai District. It runs every hour and can arrive in three hours. There is a 15-minute rest on the road and the fare is 150. Before, I saw WeChat paying attention to Aya Service’s public number on the Internet. I can book the minibus at the back on the first day and choose where to get on the bus. They will pick it up directly at the hotel. The return trip can also be sent to Chiang Mai Railway Station, Chiang Mai Bus Station or Chiang Mai Ancient City. However, I am not very good in character. I made a reservation on the first day, but I didn’t come to pick it up the next day, saying there was no order. Therefore, if you take the train to Chiang Mai, it is suggested to book tickets in advance.

We arrived in Beixian on the afternoon of September 4. The bus from Chiang Mai to Beixian will pass by Taimei manor. Because it didn’t react at once, we watched the inn pass by. I booked a ticket back to Chiang Mai the next day in the town and took a double bus to the inn. The fare is 80. Later, I asked the staff of the inn. Generally, it used to be 100 cars. It seems that I would still bargain.

Pai Yododo Resort, Taimei Manor, Pai District

The area is much larger than I thought, and the environment is very good.

There is also a swimming pool, but it rained at night. Otherwise, I really want to go into the water at night.

After check-in, the interior view of the room and the room area are also very large.

Doesn’t it look good

Mineral water, hairdryer and, by the way, refrigerator

Toilet

After packing, the front desk asked us what we were doing in the evening. I thought to see the night market. Who knew that the front desk was super good? I was told that the hotel provided a pick-up service. Because we came here by ourselves, we decided to drive us to the town and recommended a restaurant, which was very good.

This is the one below

There is a staff member in the inn who speaks excellent Chinese. If she doesn’t say she is Thai, I think she is Chinese. Also let me add her wechat, easy to contact. Because we don’t know how to ride motorcycles, she ordered a charter trip to Pai District the next day for us. It’s really good to go around and stop with us.

Souvenirs in night markets are not recommended. The price is much higher than that in Chiang Mai night markets. However, Indian Lala tea is strongly recommended. It is delicious and has never been encountered in other places.

This restaurant offers all-Chinese service. It’s only 350 plants after ordering so many below, which is very cheap.

The shrimp in the dish is very large.

I saw such a shop in the night market. I saw the picture at the door on the Internet before. I vomited several times and finally arrived at Pai District. The road to Pai District is indeed a very winding mountain road. It is estimated that many people will get carsick.

The next day, Pai District’s journey ~

We chartered a bus to leave at 8 o’clock, and the inn provided free breakfast at 8: 30. We went to the front desk. There was already a person working in the kitchen. We asked if we wanted breakfast. It was really nice!

The breakfast in the inn has rice and fried eggs, and the soup tastes good.

There are 20 tickets for Wulong tea. It’s nice to drink hot tea at the top of the mountain. It’s too cheap to convert it into RMB. You can see many sights in Pai District. It’s refreshing in the early morning

Take a picture to prove that I was here.

Yunlai Viewing Platform is Nanhu Mountain Village, which is regarded as a small Chinese village. China in the eyes of crooked nuts is different from what I see in my own eyes. Just look at it and leave.

The scenic spots in Pai District are all on the same line. It’s very convenient to rent a car or ride a motorcycle

The pink house is next door to Duoduo Inn. The color here satisfies the hearts of all young girls.

I feel that it is very beautiful to take photos everywhere in Pai District!

Dashu swing and motel, many hotels in Pai District are scenic spots, you can go in without check-in

Big tree swing, facing the light in the morning, the effect is not ideal

This tree is really big

A pair of tourists entered the mirror and the picture was beautiful.

People in the scene, beautiful!

Pai District Grand Canyon, I don’t seem to have much to look at when I go. If the time is tight, I can give up

The path up the canyon

World War II Memorial Bridge

This motorcycle is parked on the bridge and can be used for posing and taking photos for free

I can’t ride a motorcycle, but it’s OK to borrow a view

After a trip to Thailand, people became darker and darker.

Next stop after leaving the bridge, Tree House Hotel

It must be a special experience to stay on it for one night, but it is so far away and it is estimated to be expensive.

Below this should be the Baihe River, connecting to the World War II Memorial Bridge.

Meiyin temple did not go, forgive me, the steps are too high, do not want to climb, it is said that you can see the panorama of Pai District.

There are also two scenic spots in the town, one is the Pai District Post Office and the other is the handstand hut. The Post Office passed by last night and did not take a picture today.

Handstand cabin

We visited all the scenic spots in about four hours, and the chartered buses stopped at the same time. We had enough to get on the bus and then stopped at the next stop. In some places, we met the half-day tour reported in the town and were always urging people. We were completely left unattended and free. The main drivers could only speak Thai and would not urge us. We were also very conscious people.

At 12 o’clock when we returned to the inn, the front desk asked us to check out after washing. It was very considerate. After checking out, we drove us to the restaurant in the town. After lunch, we left Pai District.

Although you can travel to QuanPai District in one day, I think it is really a good place for vacation if you have enough time. Riding a motorcycle is also a good skill, but unfortunately I can’t. Otherwise, it would be quite pleasant to ride around Pai District for a few days.

Thai Likes-Bangkok

Overview

When traveling alone, others asked me if I was afraid and said I was brave. I just smiled. In fact, traveling alone is quite good. You have thrown yourself into a completely unfamiliar environment, forcing you to face many unexpected things, loneliness and everything. It was a whole new feeling. You need to abandon your original experience and start from scratch. Let you escape from the same life before. During the whole trip, I almost forgot that I worked in what.

First of all, I have to thank you for going abroad and traveling a lot, which gives me this opportunity. In fact, I planned a trip to Thailand in July, but for personal reasons, I had to cancel the trip. Who knows, it gave me this opportunity again. JOJO said: live hard, yours or yours, ha ha ~

Of course, there are still some things to pay attention to when single women go out:

1. Bring enough money, but not too much. If you need to shop in Bangkok, you can bring your passport with you and some places can get tax rebates. Other times, passports and some cash can be locked in the hotel safe. Because if you lose your passport, it will be too much trouble.

2. Thailand is a tropical country. Summer clothes are enough. However, you can bring a set of long-sleeved jackets and trousers properly. It is very cold when changing planes, as well as shopping malls and light rail. If you go to the island, you can prepare 2 sets of bathing suits or more. Sometimes snorkeling is frequent and the bathing suits will not dry out. If you go to sea, if you are afraid of getting sunburned, you can prepare sunscreen clothes. The sun on the beach is really strong.

3, a person, the biggest trouble is to take photos. However, after all, girls, I only have a Canon 500D set of machines, and I am not a professional. It seems silly to carry a tripod. . . But in the end, Double 11 Taobao greatly promoted and bought one. Sure enough, it was still troublesome. After that, I tested it on the day I arrived at Jiami and never used it again. . Therefore, single girls should be cautious, it is too heavy. Therefore, next, many people will take selfies in front of the mirror. Please understand.

4, strike up a conversation, take the initiative to strike up a conversation with others, mainly for the purpose of taking photos, I usually look for Chinese, it is easier to succeed. To be on the safe side, strike up a conversation with couple or family or girls, not strangers. I will also take the initiative to strike up a conversation with local people, usually restaurant or ship staff, to learn more about the local information. In Thailand, there is a feeling that one does not close one’s doors at night and does not pick up anything on the road, especially in Jiami. Whenever you ask the way, people will tell you enthusiastically that even if they do not understand English, they are very, very patient. It makes people feel cold.

First of all, bask in my itinerary.

Arrival:

The plane landed at Bangkok’s Suwannabe Airport four and a half hours later. On the plane, you need to fill in an entry card. Remember to leave a pen and passport with you. After arriving at the airport, after being guided, you will soon be able to reach the customs office, then queue up to cross the border and attach an entry card. After leaving the customs, it is the baggage claim office. You can come out with your luggage. After coming out, you can take the Airport Rapid Transit or take a taxi. A person, luggage and heavy, decisive taxi. Go downstairs and follow the instructions to the queue. There are several lines here, each with a staff member. Give you a typed note and ask where you are going. The driver is waiting nearby and will tell the driver where you are going in Thai. The driver will directly help you carry your luggage to the car. Before getting on the bus, I checked again whether it was “by meter” and the driver said yes. As mentioned in the strategy, taxis have to confirm whether they are by meter. Because some taxis don’t play watches. In addition, taxis coming out of the airport have to add 50 baht of Surcharge, which is stated on the note given to you by the staff. Finally, I arrived at my hotel (near MBK) and spent 400 Thai baht (including Surcharge).

A note from the airport staff

Siam Zhixuan Holiday Inn Bangkok

Bangkok Hotel: Holiday Inn Express BangkokSiam, Bangkok)

The location is excellent. It is just beside National Stadium, the light rail station. There is a bar downstairs and 7-11 next to it. The hotel goes out and turns left. Walk 500 meters to MBK. Then go on. It is Siam Business Circle. A series of shopping malls are here. Breakfast is Western-style, and most foreigners live here.

Let’s look at the hotel layout first:

The course at night

大床

Drinking water is very special, and everyone has the urge to take the bottle away.

The course during the day

My room is facing stadium, which shocked me when I pulled open the curtains. The only disadvantage is that it is also the light rail. The sound of the light rail passing by can be heard at 11 o’clock in the evening and in the morning.

Nearby Siam Business Circle

The elephant on the road is so loving.

MBK, very famous, but I didn’t go to what. As many cities in China have, shopping markets, such as Xiushui in Beijing and Xiangyang Road in Shanghai, also ate the worst Japanese dinner I have ever had in Thailand. .

The mall is here, Siam Center

Siam Paragon

Triangle plum is also the flower of Xiamen City.

Passing by the police department is also the only place where you can see a little trace of the parade. Look at the wire fence inside the iron gate,,,

If you get lost, you can ask this information pavilion. It will be considerate to help you call the merchant, help you confirm the place and then tell you how to get there.

Only after chatting up three members of the Beijing family did they have the first non-selfie photo and shed tears ~

Selfie too

A spa visited was in a luxurious 5-star hotel. The girl paper here is so gentle.

Pigeons can be seen everywhere. Look at how wanton these small animals are,,,

Meng Elephant ~

Before noon, walking in the shade of trees, the breeze gusts, especially comfortable

Thailand also has this kind of city bicycle

Snacks,,, didn’t dare to try, flies rampant a little

Parking is so cheap to say,,,

My name is XX Park. I happened to pass by.

The ticket office at the light rail station. You can change coins at the pavilion first and then buy tickets at the vending machine. According to the price of the station you want to go indicated above, it is OK to put in coins.

Blue Elephant

I almost forgot this Blue Elephant Thai restaurant, which has a history of many years and is very, very famous. It is not only a restaurant, but also can learn Thai food on the third floor. You can see it as soon as you come out of Surasak Light Rail Station.

At first, the wine list will be served first. The beverage is over 300 Thai baht and is not good to drink. . Not recommended.

Set Meal at noon, which is more cost-effective. And enough to eat one person. It’s delicious. The waiter will explain each dish to you in detail, but he can’t understand it very well. The names of many ingredients. Anyway, I’ll be OK if I know it’s what meat.

Oasis Spa: I also won a prize for this trip, which was provided by the Travel Network Abroad.

Http://www.chuguoqu.com/amusements/product-779/

You can take the light rail first, arrive at Phrom Phong BTS, call SPA in advance, tell him the appointment time, there will be a car to pick you up at the light rail station, and then take you directly to SPA;; After the spa, you will be directly sent back to the light rail station.

As soon as I entered, I was attracted by the courtyard. The architectural style was antique and the staff were very polite. I said there was also a handsome boy who could speak Chinese. Pass the coupon, then fill in a document, and wait for them to arrange the room and masseuse. Someone will show you into the room. The room also has an outdoor courtyard, which is closed. The masseur lets you take a shower in the yard first, and then you can start massaging. The process can only be described in one word: comfortable ~

The one who can speak Chinese is the handsome brother who is standing.

Bangkok Transportation

Before the trip, I studied Thailand’s light rail in detail, which proved to be a good choice, fast and convenient. All the places I went to were also around the light rail, for convenience. I have tried to take a taxi, even during off-peak hours, the same traffic jam. The key point is that the driver’s English is really poor, and there is also the situation of finding the wrong place, which makes people speechless.

Night Scene

Bangkok Langman Airport

To take the AirAsia flight, you must go to Langman Airport. In the past, I asked the hotel to help me find a taxi. This time I won’t play the watch, but the driver said, 400 Thai baht to take the high speed, I agreed. Later, it was found that the high-speed fee of 60 Thai baht had already been paid, so it felt quite cost-effective. During off-peak hours, it will take nearly 40 minutes. If it happens to be a meal, you don’t need to buy food on the plane. After passing the security check, there are many places to buy food, McDonald’s, Subway, 7-11, etc. In addition, there is the famous Bangkok bag NARAYA, which is larger than the shop I saw in BKK later. I chose 10 small bags, which are not expensive at all. They are simply an excellent gift for relatives and friends when I return home.

Check out the last souvenir

Langman Airport

I can see the stars of a temple on the opposite side. I didn’t go to the Grand Palace this time. Is it a consolation prize?

Self-help boarding and other things

Many, many foreigners. . .

The plane couldn’t help but order instant noodles with the taste of winter Yin Gong, which was very nice.

Foreigners like to take such a small child out of the house, just less than one year old, so cute

On the last day, I also went to Langman Airport first, and then took shuttle bus to BKK. It is amazing that shuttle bus does not need money! No money! Nearly 50 minutes’ drive, without traffic jam.

Thailand Completed ~ ~

Jungle Flying Rope in Chiang Mai

Starting from Chiang Mai City, it takes one hour to drive to Baan Nam Khong, a mysterious village hidden in Doi Lungka, Thailand’s fifth highest mountain at an altitude of 1200 meters. This will be the starting and ending point of Jungle Flight. According to their own website, the altitude of 1,000 meters makes Jungle Flight the company with the highest geographical location in Thailand’s sliding rope project. The unique alpine and jungle climate keeps it at 18 ~ 28 degrees all the year round. November to February is the most pleasant season every year. The just-concluded rainy season irrigates a large area of green vegetation, showing the unique rich flavor of tropical rain forest everywhere. BNK is the most beautiful in March and April. All flower species bloom in turn. Tall and straight trees are also covered with green crowns to welcome the upcoming rainy season. Rain began to increase gradually in May, the climate was cool and the sky was as blue as wash. In the intermittent sunshine and rain, huge white clouds were suspended in the mountains, making it impossible to move one’s eyes away….

The whole Jungle Flight is divided into two routes A and B according to the length of the route. More than 1/2 of the population in our family is physically weak, so we chose the shorter route A, which includes: flying over 24 platforms (50 kilometers per hour), 1 high-altitude suspension bridge, 1 air spiral ladder, 2 longest flight tracks (including extraordinary tracks 50 meters and 300 meters long from the ground), 3 high-altitude downturns (up to 40 meters above the ground), 35 meters climbing tree nets, etc. The skating coach is a handsome man, very professional, and will observe your ability and courage. When you descend at high altitude, they will adjust the length and speed of the descent according to your courage. My son was timid and reluctant when he first started playing. After experiencing the feeling of flying on the sliding rope, his interest became higher and higher. If he had known this earlier, it would have been better to quote a longer route B.

Sign the insurance policy before sliding

After signing the insurance, go to get the equipment.

Precautions

The coach is helping us to put on our equipment.

Tip: Jungle Flight cannot carry a backpack or a large camera. If you want to take a picture, you need to bring a small card player. Bag, large camera and what can be put in the locker they provide. There are also free bottled water and buffet lunch, which are very considerate.

Thailand Bangkok + Pattaya Team Tour Experience [Super Details + Super Many Photos]

Before the itinerary was confirmed, I enjoyed many free travel strategies in Thailand and was deeply attracted by the exotic scenery. I was eager to be personally present and feel the strong and crazy atmosphere of its Buddhist culture. But I have been struggling with whether to go with the group or to travel freely. I am eager to travel freely, but my poor English level is really beyond my reach. Besides, the holidays are limited. On the eve of the National Day, I happened to see the 360-Thai-one quality tour in Beijing Meitu on the Internet. Jinan flew directly to Bangkok at no own expense. It was only 2880 (the original price was more than 4,000), which made me firmly decide to follow the group. Let’s move, book the route, provide passports, prepare before departure, everything is OK, wait for the arrival of October 10 ~ ~

Many people think that there is nothing to worry about with the group, that is, “get on the bus to sleep, get off the bus to take photos”, but in fact it is not. Because outbound travel is no better than domestic travel, there are many customs and living habits abroad that are different from those in our country. Cut the crap and I will introduce the preparations before departure to you:

1. Visa. Thailand belongs to a landing visa country. If you are not prepared to apply for a visa in advance, then prepare two recent two-inch color photos, one for Thailand’s entry visa and the other for later use to prevent the replacement of lost passports. Of course, the passport must be processed 10-15 working days in advance at the Exit and Entry Administration Office of your local public security bureau ~ ~ But you cannot exchange Thai baht in the Bank of China without a visa in advance.

2. Currency. As for the exchange rate of currency, when I went, it was 1 RMB to 4.86 Bath, but the exchange rate given by the tour guide was 1: 4.4. Although it was lower than that of BOC, you can refund it to him at this exchange rate if you can’t spend it, and BOC can’t exchange it back. Therefore, it is not recommended that you exchange a lot in advance. 2,000-3,000 RMB is enough. Domestic credit cards can be used in Thailand, but when you swipe your card, you require the payment desk to take the UnionPay route, which does not charge any handling fee, and the exchange rate is also very high, which is very cost-effective. The shopping spots taken by the travel agency are all UnionPay by default, and there is basically no need to explain.

3. Power supply. The power jack of the Thai hotel is two holes, with a voltage of 220V and 50Hz. The tour guide will tell you not to change the plug. However, I want to tell you that you must bring the two-to-three switch plug and multi-purpose plug-in row, because we have many three-item plugs, such as camera charger, notebook power supply, DV charger, etc. If you do not plug-in row, it will be very inconvenient.

4. Essential drugs. In short, drugs for preventing and treating colds, such as Yinhuang Granules and Honeysuckle Dispersible Tablets; Digestive drugs, Jianwei Xiaoshi tablets, Huoxiang Zhengqi water; Anti-inflammatory drugs, such as cephalosporins; Antidiarrheal drugs, such as Zhilining or Pipemidic acid; There are also some Band-Aids or alcohol disinfection towels and so on. Just watch and prepare for them.

5. Articles for daily use. Many hotels in Thailand do not provide disposable daily necessities for environmental protection reasons, but hotels that follow the group do not provide toothpaste and toothbrushes, other things such as soap, bath lotion and shampoo, but slippers are not disposable. All you need to do is bring a towel and toothpaste and toothbrush. The second is the hair dryer, which is better to have higher power. I will say later on.

6. Luggage. Why do you want to point out the luggage in particular? I’d like to talk to you here, because the Thai tour team has a very tight schedule and a fast pace, requiring frequent hotel changes. If you have many small bags, it is very easy to leave one or several bags when you check out, so don’t be superstitious about handbags. The bigger the suitcase, the better, even if it is empty when you go. Believe me, unless you don’t buy anything (this is basically impossible), then throw everything into the suitcase and pull it up and leave. It is safe and light. It is easy to pack and check it in when you fly. The less luggage there is, the less likely it is to make mistakes.

7. Communication. Thailand also uses G-net mobile phones. If it is not a government official or a leader of an enterprise or institution, don’t open international roaming. The 6.9-minute phone bill and the 2,000-yuan roaming deposit are not a small sum of money for anyone. Find an old mobile phone to install your card and throw it at home. Then come back and see who has harassed you in the past six days. Take your handy mobile phone and change into a local mobile phone card in Thailand. The phone book is all there. Entertainment and work are both at the same time. There are three telecom operators in Thailand: true move, happycall and 12call. I recommend using truemove’s card. The price is very cheap. Call back to China, dial 00600 +86 + domestic mobile phone number, 1B per minute, equivalent to RMB 0.2 yuan. Moreover, if you are lucky, you can also get a free card from the airport, and then the convenience store can recharge it. Don’t rush too much ~ ~ Otherwise, you can’t finish the call when you return home. It’s really too cheap. Remember it’s 00600 line! !

All right, that’s all for the preparations before departure. Everything is ready. Jinan Yaoqiang International Airport, let’s go! On the film!

The charter flights we took this time, Boeing 737 and Thailand Eastern Airlines, look quite new ~ ~

Outside the plane, there was a beautiful sea of clouds ~ ~ an encounter over 30,000 feet, whispering: hi, hello ~ ~ in a good mood, everything is beautiful ~ ~

Low Altitude Flight Before Bangkok Landing ~ ~

After four and a half hours of long-distance flight, I finally arrived at Bangkok’s old airport Langman International Airport. At present, all flights from China to Thailand have landed at Bangkok’s new airport, Suwannabe International Airport. Because it was a charter flight, it landed at the old airport, but I like the name of the old airport, Langman-Romance, which fits the meaning of our trip ~ ~:)

The lobby of Langman Airport ~ ~ got off the plane, which is a word. Needless to say, everyone can guess, besides being hot, it is still hot ~ ·

Thai police cars and Toyota cars on the streets of Bangkok. Hey! There is little Japan everywhere ~ ~ anger! !

As I said before, Because the schedule for these days is very full, Keeping a running account will be chaotic and everyone will be dizzy. Moreover, each travel agency will arrange its itinerary in different order. However, these are the scenic spots, which are the same. Therefore, I will summarize them from the six aspects of “clothing, food, housing, transportation, music and purchase” ~ ~ If there is anything wrong, please forgive me ~ ~

1. Clothing

Because it was October when I left, it was already cooler here in Shandong, so I wore more clothes to the airport. Thailand is relatively close to the equator, and the temperature is relatively high all year round. Except for the lowest temperature of 20 degrees in the cool season (November-February), the outdoor temperature is basically above 30 degrees. Therefore, everyone should prepare more summer clothes, the thinner the cooler the better. If you love sweating friends, you will feel very uncomfortable if you wear less clothes. Remember the hair dryer I asked everyone to bring in front of me, Because it happens to be in the hotel room, However, the power is very small. If the clothes are soaked to the skin, it will smell very bad and delay wearing them, especially underwear. During the trip, hotels will be changed frequently and you will not be given time to dry the clothes. This requires you to take a hairdryer and blow dry them. The hot air will be high-grade and very quickly. Anyway, you don’t need to pay for electricity. Why not? Also, be sure to bring a thicker coat, Throw it on the tour bus, Because Thailand, whether it is shopping malls or tour buses, The air conditioner is completely cool. The temperature on the car and the temperature in the hotel room are basically 18 degrees. The temperature difference between indoor and outdoor is more than 10 degrees. Some of them are estimated to be unable to adapt to it. The coat will come in handy at this time. It can be covered and worn. Naturally, it goes without saying that BATTAYA must wear it well in advance when crossing the island, otherwise the wet body will be certain. Ladies, take bikinis that you dare not wear in China to show them to your heart’s content ~ ~ Friendly reminder: The sun on PATTAYA Island is very strong. It is recommended to buy a sunscreen shirt before departure. Taobao only has more than 20 pieces, but the effect is very good ~ ~ on two island films ~ ~

2. Food

Thai cuisine, especially snacks, is really attractive. Personally, I think authentic Thai cuisine is quite good. This time I went there with a lot of ingredients and was also aimed at delicious food. However, I would like to pour cold water on you here. If you travel with a group, you should not imagine tasting delicious food. First, there is no time. Second, there is still no time. The group meal is really hard to swallow, as if all the restaurants have agreed. Apart from green peppers, cabbage, onions, cabbage and rice, there are no other vegetables and staple foods, and they are all sweet and spicy as the main tastes. The dishes are very light and difficult to eat. It is recommended to bring some bags of pickles with heavy tastes. During the whole trip, the seafood dinner on Sands Island and the buffet on King Power on the last day were quite satisfactory, but in the end everyone had no appetite. The most important point is that Thailand is a Buddhist country. They don’t kill animals, so there is no meat in the meal. Apart from eating some chicken, the taste is also very… ah! I don’t want to recall it. I feel sick at the end of the day. Look at the above picture ~ ~ ~ This is a buffet on the 43rd floor of Rainbow Building ~ ~ It looks good, but it actually tastes ordinary ~

But the panoramic view of Bangkok from the top floor of Rainbow Building still gives me a little relief ~ ~

The following is Jinsha Island’s noon seafood dinner ~ ~ Crabs are very fresh ~ ~ Mainly looking at meals, don’t look at people, ha ha ~ ~

This is the last day of King Power Cafeteria, the beautiful and delicious Chocolate Tower and all kinds of drinks ~ ~ Chocolate and salmon sashimi are unlimited.

Three, live

It should be said that the hotels staying with the group are generally satisfied. Seeing some people free to travel and say that the TV and air conditioning in the hotel are charged, there is no such problem with the group. However, even if you can watch the TV casually, you don’t have the time and energy to watch it, and the key is that you don’t understand it. Ha ha. Earlier, I said that hotels would be changed frequently, and some of them might not understand it, because Bangkok is called “slow traffic jam” by the local people, which means that traffic jams are very severe, which will virtually delay a lot of time on the road. If you only stay in one hotel and the scenic spots are very scattered, you will waste a lot of events on the road. Therefore, it is reasonable for the travel agency to make such an arrangement. You can live nearby wherever you go and give everyone more time to rest. It is more troublesome to change hotels. If you have a large suitcase, it is much more convenient, don’t you think? As for hotel facilities, let’s not say much, above.

We live in The Royal City Hotel in Bangkok. It looks very magnificent outside, saying it is equivalent to five stars in China, but in fact it is very bad inside. It turns out to be a plywood-separated wall. It’s really cheating. Honeymoon couples, don’t quarrel next door at night ~ ~

Tip: If you happen to live in this hotel, there are hot water on the fifth and seventh floors ~ you can win rooms on these two floors ~ ~

This is swan beach resort (swan beach resort), the seaside hotel we stayed at PATTAYA for the first night. It was very late and many foreigners were playing with water on the beach because it was too convenient to even wrap bath towels. We also went to the beach to play ~ ~ the facilities in the room were very general. I felt like a guest house in China, mainly because of its good geographical location ~ ~

The plants in the hotel yard feel very beautiful, I like it very much, but the water lily has not opened, and there are some regrets ~ ~

Boast, don’t clap bricks ~ ~

PATTAYA Beach under the dim light of night is more sensible than during the day ~ ~

The snack stalls outside the hotel are still doing very well. Seafood barbecue, mango cake, winter yin gong soup and so on, 20B ~ 100B, are all very cheap. I bought several kinds to go back to the hotel to eat ~ the taste is really good ~ ~ it is already 1: 30 a.m. At this time ~ ~

The following is the hotel we stayed in PATTAYA for the second night, the Eastern Grand Palace. Although it is not a sea view room, the environment is much better ~ ~ The most important thing is that the buffet breakfast in this hotel is the best meal of all the breakfasts in the trip ~ ~

The hotel scenery taken from the room window ~ ~ ~

The fish in the hotel pond are very beautiful ~ ~ not afraid of people ~ ~

Animals in Buddhist countries live in harmony with people, and pigeons on windowsill do not fly when taking photos of him ~ ~

There is a sports bar called White Horse on the first floor of the hotel. Foreigners are singing very late at night. 1B is a song, which is so cheap ~ ~

Four, line

The means of transportation between the two countries is the plane, which has been introduced earlier and will not be mentioned here. Focus on the traffic in Thailand. Because it is a group tour, the traffic is very dominant. Thailand’s tour bus is very big and clean, because the driver takes the car as his home. After we get off at night, the driver has to clean the car inside and outside, and then sleep in the aisle of the car with his family, which makes people feel a little sour. Therefore, if you go to Thailand with a delegation, you must not dirty your car. We must cherish the work of the driver and master. Tip: There are two kinds of fruits that cannot be taken on the bus in Thailand, one is durian and the other is coconut. Durian needless to say, everyone knows, but why can’t coconuts be brought? Because coconut juice is very sweet, and this smell is the favorite of ants, if the driver sleeps in the car at night, a large group of ants will come up, alas, I dare not think ~ ~ first look at Thailand’s tour bus!

Bangkok’s Taxi, light rail, subway, public transportation, trains and other means of transportation are relatively developed, with doodle cars everywhere, so it is very convenient to travel freely. Because I am a team tour, I will not introduce too much here. What I need to know can be understood in the free travel strategy. I saw that the private cars running on the streets in Bangkok are basically Japanese cars. I heard the tour guide say that Japanese cars are cheap and comfortable. Ha ha, it seems to be similar to the situation in our country ~ ~

There are many drag racing parties in Thailand, of course motorcycles are also essential ~ ~

Buses on the streets of Bangkok have their own characteristics ~ ~

Doodle cars are all over the street ~ ~ in fact, they are what we often call motorcycle ~ ~

The so-called trip means walking and shopping. It is inevitable to communicate with the local people. After introducing the means of transportation, everyone will come with me to speed up a few common Thai words, which are absolutely useful to you. The pronunciation of the Chinese character mark is not very accurate, so I will use Pinyin:

Hello/good morning/good evening/say hello to everything in short: sa wa di ka (ka men read four times and women read one)

After taking the ticket and taking the photo, you can enter the Grand Palace with the ticket from the tour guide. At the ticket counter, You can get a free introduction manual to the Grand Palace. There is a plan of the Grand Palace on it. I don ‘t think it’ s very useful, However, it is still very good to keep it as a souvenir ~ ~ For team tour guests, There is a commentator in the Grand Palace who can speak Chinese. You’d better follow him closely. Otherwise, what doesn’t know anything about such a building except taking a lot of photos. We can’t help but understand its history. Of course, a good PP is also indispensable. Look at our commentator and devout group members.

The Jade Buddha Temple is located in the northeast of the Grand Palace. The most revered Jade Buddha of the Thai people is enshrined on a golden high seat in the Grand Hall. Jade Buddha changes royal clothes according to the time of Thailand’s three seasons a year, and the ceremony of changing clothes is presided over by the king himself. There are strict requirements for tourists’ clothing in the Jade Buddha Temple. The coat should not show the shoulders, The trousers must be long trousers and must not be perforated, Don’t consider jeans such as pants and beggars’ clothes. Girls’ skirts must reach their ankles, It doesn’t matter if you don’t wear it, There are rented clothes at the gate of the Grand Palace. Or you can buy a skirt and put it around it. It is actually a piece of cloth. Thais call it Sha Long, 160B, which can be used as a skirt, a scarf, or a tablecloth at home. It is quite beautiful ~ ~ The tour guide said 40B of the old parliament building. Later, he looked at it and found it was a solid color cloth. It was very ugly and not as good as 160B on this side of the Grand Palace. After being fully armed, everyone below will go to the Jade Buddha Temple with my camera and have a look. There are many pictures.

Elegant, resplendent and magnificent ~ ~ ~ You must take off your shoes in the Jade Buddha Temple. Thais believe that the head of a person’s body is the noblest part and the foot is the lowest part. In Thailand, you must not touch the head of a child casually, even if you like him very much, you must not hold the sole of your foot to the Buddha in the temple. If a girl sees a monk, Consciously keep your distance, And no photos are allowed in the main hall, Out of respect for Buddha, In addition to my long-standing mystique of Thailand, I just worshipped the Buddha devoutly and donated merit money. I didn’t dare to shoot blindly ~ ~ But I want to remind you that the Buddha in Thailand is really very clever. I just say these things. I hope that I will never say anything disrespectful to the Buddha or do anything disrespectful to the Buddha in the future ~ ~ Good faith reminder, believe it or not ~ ~

Is it the sadness of fate or the pain of reincarnation? ?

Are you listening to the call from afar, or are you converting to the long-cherished wish of the world ~ ~

好了,以上这些你学会了跟团走就基本OK了,最后四句有些可能不太明白,等你做泰式古法按摩的时候就知道了,但是千万不要记混呦~~除了上面这些,泰国人对人的尊称不像我们中国,先生、女士的这么复杂,他们把尊称统称为”pi” ,举个例子:如果你姓刘,不管先生女士,他会称你为”P刘”,听起来有些别扭,但是习惯了觉得还蛮有意思的,唯独姓”谷”的有些郁闷了~~

First, I’d like to introduce to you the tour guide of our team, P Lin! A Chinese born in Thailand, who speaks fluent Chaozhou Mandarin, is well informed and has traveled to two-thirds of the countries in the world. He kept explaining to us all the way. He is very humorous. I have met countless tour guides and I am quite satisfied with his service. Take a look at the photos ~

5. Music

Finally, we are getting down to business. All the scenic spots will be introduced in this section. Let’s list the scenic spots first:

Bangkok Attractions: Grand Palace-Old Parliament Building-North Crocodile Lake-Chao Phraya River-Transvestite Show-Golden Buddha Temple

On the way to Pattaya and the local scenic spots in Pattaya: Fengyue Pedestrian Street-Oriental Princess-Xiaoyao Island-Jinsha Island-Dongba Paradise-IX Emperor

Hanggong-Wax Museum-Tropical Fruit Garden-93 Division Museum-Adult Show

1. Grand Palace-Jade Buddha Temple

The Grand Palace and the Jade Buddha Temple are the scenic spots that every Thai tour team must visit. They can not only reflect Thailand’s Buddhist culture, but also show the rights and wealth of the Thai royal family to the people of all countries in the world. Thailand is a constitutional monarchy country. The royal family and the royal family play a very important role in the hearts of the Thai people. Among them, the fifth emperor (especially Sun Yat-sen) and the ninth emperor (today’s emperor) play an important role. Therefore, the significance of the Grand Palace is also very important. You don’t need to buy your own tickets for team tours. If you travel freely, the tickets are 400B/person. At the entrance of the Grand Palace, all 42 members took a photo, which was also the only photo in the whole Thai trip.

The guard at the gate of the grand palace ~ ~

Very vacant guards ~ ~

The round urn built by the Fourth Emperor is called Ledana Shari Pagoda. There is also a small pagoda dedicated to Buddha’s relic in the pagoda ~ ~

Angkor Wat Model ~

The Jade Buddha Temple has been inspired by Buddha’s lotus flowers. Are you also avoiding the streets beyond redemption and looking for a way home?

After leaving the Jade Buddha Temple, I followed the tour guide into the Grand Palace ~ ~ Below is the largest imperial hall in the Grand Palace, called Jieji Hall, which was built in 1876 during the reign of Emperor V. The festival base contains the meaning of divine plate and emperor, and is also the name of Bangkok’s imperial dynasty. Attention should be paid to the design style of the main hall, which belongs to the architectural art of the Victorian era of the Queen of England. He is a complex integrating Thai architecture and European architecture. Thai traditional architecture is the top and European Roman column is the bottom, which indicates that the Thai king will press European countries below. His ruling ambition is evident ~ ~

The image of the fifth emperor on the main body of the festival base hall ~ ~ that flourishing time, under your gaze, I passed alone, another year, grass grew and warblers flew ~ ~

The Imperial Guards of the Ninth Emperor in the Grand Palace are free to take photos, but you must respect others ~ ~

Mo Dao who dominates the world, the courtyard is deeply locked in the spring and autumn ~ ~

The military museum in the grand palace does not allow photos to be taken. I took them blindly ~ ~ ha ha ~ quite clear ~ ~

The Grand Palace is really the world of the royal family. Even beverages are produced by royal enterprises ~ ~ but the price is really very cheap ~ ~

The above picture is the symbol of the royal enterprise ~ ~

Thailand is really the world of snakes. A snake was found in the courtyard of the Grand Palace. Some tourists wanted to catch it and were severely reprimanded by the soldiers. Later, they heard that it was a poisonous snake ~ ~

About 75 minutes later, the visit to the Grand Palace was over. Goodbye, Grand Palace ~ Goodbye ~ ~ Jade Buddha Temple ~ ~

2. Beilan Crocodile Lake Park

I would like to say here that we did not have this scenic spot on our trip originally. It was the site of World War II-the River Kwai Bridge. However, P Lin told us that it would take us more than 3 hours to get to the River Kwai Bridge. He was afraid of delaying everyone’s free time and the journey was more tiring, so he asked us for our advice and changed to the North Crocodile Lake. In fact, my requirements for scenic spots are not harsh, but this change of scenic spots has become the most unsatisfactory link in my trip. Later, I went back to the hotel and found that there were no what facilities around the hotel, so it was not very interesting to go back early. It was better to go to the River Kwai Bridge. After all, once in Thailand, it was a pity that I didn’t see the iconic scenic spots ~ ~ I advise the people behind me not to change the scenic spots casually ~ ~ borrow a photo on the Internet to fill my inner regret ~ ~

However, since we have changed, let’s settle down when we come. We have a good mentality and have a good scenery everywhere we go ~ ~ We walk on a journey, make friends with feelings and play with mood ~ ~ Crocodile Lake Park can let us see the breeding process from an crocodile egg to an adult crocodile, and we can also eat real crocodile meat and experience the pleasure of feeding crocodiles ~ ~

Yang Haiquan, the owner of Crocodile Lake Park, is an economically minded doctor ~ ~

Treasure of Town Garden, Golden Crocodile ~ ~

Looking around, besides crocodiles, there are still crocodiles ~ ~

You can watch crocodile training shows free of charge in the park, Seemingly thrilling, In fact, there is no danger ~ ~ Don’t say I am vicious, Crocodiles open their mouths to give off heat in their bodies. An adult crocodile can stay motionless for 5 hours with its mouths open. It is often mistaken for sculpture ~ ~ Crocodile trainers mainly ask for tips. The audience are all Chinese who give tips and heckles. Foreign tourists do not give tips ~ ~ It is really our Chinese characteristics ~ ~

All works of art made of crocodile skulls ~ ~ very characteristic ~ ~

After the visit, we tasted the real crocodile meat in the restaurant of the park ~ ~ Speaking of taste, some fishy smell, very thin ~ harder than chicken, similar to the feeling of goose meat ~ ~ After the meal, we took a group photo in front of the gate of the park. Goodbye, ugly crocodiles ~ ~ ha ha! ! Our small team ~ ~ Let’s show it first ~ We all met after joining the group ~ It’s very predestined ~ ~ I will introduce it later ~ ~

3. Old Parliament Building

This scenic spot is also not included in our itinerary. The itinerary is arranged with the 5th Teak Palace. However, the tour guide said that the items in the 5th Teak Palace were incomplete and old, and the visiting nature was not as good as that of the old parliament building. Facts have proved that this is indeed the case. The tour guide also has his purpose. The 5th Teak Palace has to purchase tickets separately, while the old parliament building can be visited free of charge with tickets from the Grand Palace. Ha ha, even tour guides and tourists get what they need. The old parliament building was built in 1907 and ordered by Rama V. In 1915, it was completed as a place for holding national ceremonies and welcoming state guests during Rama VI’s time. In 1932, after the outbreak of Thailand’s constitutional revolution, the palace became the Thai parliament building. After the completion of the new parliament building, it was unused and was only opened to the public as a scenic spot in 2009. Viewed from the outside, the old parliament building has a dome modeled on the western parliament building, and the whole building foundation is the cross-shaped Gothic church. The lobby is also like a Gothic church, with solemn benches and decorative paintings on the roof. The only difference from Gothic churches is that the decorative paintings are not biblical stories, but Indian-style Buddhist stories believed by Thais, and the front wall is painted with King Rama V himself, who is popular with all people. From the perspective of architectural tradition, it is neither fish nor fowl, and the pattern of the parliament building at that time also happened to reflect Thailand’s political policy at that time: to be friendly to western countries, to follow the advanced western civilization, but to preserve the root of Thai culture. Photography is not allowed in the old parliament building. Cameras, DV and mobile phones are all locked in safes, so there are not many films in this scenic spot. The clothing requirements for visitors are stricter than those for the Grand Palace, which has already been introduced before and will not be discussed here. The 40B skirt mentioned by the tour guide was bought here ~ ~

The back of the building ~ ~

Restore the primary colors ~ ~

A crow accidentally photographed at the telephoto end ~ ~ it was discovered today that if the crow was not black, it would not be ugly ~ ~

4. Chao Phraya River

The Chao Phraya River, also known as the Zhaopiye River in Thailand, originates from the mountains in northern Thailand. Bangkok, the capital of Thailand, is located at the mouth of the Chao Phraya River. The Chao Phraya River is the largest river in Thailand and runs through the whole territory of Thailand from north to south. When you travel to the Chao Phraya River by boat, you can enjoy the scenery along both sides of the river and also understand the life of people on the water. The living conditions of the boatmen were relatively poor, and several families bought a boat in partnership to make a living. As soon as tourists board the boat, the boatman will hang a wreath around each person’s neck. The wreath is made up of roses and jasmine. It is very fragrant. You can see that in the front group photo, everyone has not picked the wreath ~ ~ in sympathy for the boatman. Each person will give the boatman a tip of 20B to help them live. The following one is the dock by boat ~ ~

Scenery on both sides of Chao Phraya River ~ ~ ~

The Zheng Wang Temple overlooking from the ship ~ ~ Zheng Wang Temple, also known as Liming Temple, is a temple commemorating Zheng Zhao, the 41st generation king and national hero of Thailand. Zheng Wang Temple faces Bangkok across the Chao Phraya River and is huge in scale, second only to the Grand Palace and Jade Buddha Temple. There are five identical pagodas in the temple, one large and four small. The Great Tower is a 79-meter-high Brahman minaret, the Ba Rang Tower, which was built in 1809 and is known as the “Eiffel Tower in Thailand”. It is said that the main tower was inlaid with Thailand’s largest sapphire at that time, which was shining brightly and very wonderful ~ ~ Later Thailand opened up its tourism and took it down ~ ~

5. Transvestite Song and Dance Show

After seeing a lot of natural landscapes, it is time to enjoy Thailand’s unique culture-transvestite performance. This transvestite performance, in the words of the tour guide, is entry-level, primary school level, so that everyone can have a general understanding of transvestite first. However, as far as I am concerned, I have not seen what except that I am not particularly beautiful (there are also some who I think are good-looking and there are photos behind).

Fountain outside the performance ~ ~

The restaurant in the performance hall ~ ~ This is where we ate our first dinner ~ ~

Sculptures in the lobby ~ ~ ~

Thailand really deserves to be a big Buddhist country, even urinals in toilets are so distinctive ~ ~ But when it comes to toilets, let me add one more word, lao ma ma, please note that the cleaning ladies in Thailand’s toilets will come in to clean whether there is anyone or not, so if you are convenient, don’t be scared ~ ~

After dinner, I began to watch the performance ~ ~ the photos of the last group of transvestite sisters ~ ~

My husband and I like the sister below best ~ ~ She is very beautiful ~ ~ What do you think ~ ~

There is also Dae Chang Jin ~ ~ Ha ha ~ ~ Personally, I think this performance is specially prepared for Chinese tourists. Half of the background music and singing are Chinese songs, all of which are lip-synching, but it is quite kind to hear domestic songs in foreign countries ~ ~

After watching the performance, you can get a glass of water, which is very common in Thailand. Later, after watching the three-in-one performance, you can still have all kinds of drinks to drink. After the performance, the transvestite sisters will come out to take photos with tourists, but it takes 100B and you can’t touch your chest yet ~ ~ But I clearly saw 40B at the ticket window. I don’t know why it was what ~ ~

I don’t know why what is. I dare not get too close to the transvestite. I feel scared.

After saying goodbye to the transvestite sister, Bangkok’s scenic spots will come to an end. The situation of shopping spots will be introduced in detail in the chapter of “shopping” ~ ~ Let’s recuperate, let’s open our minds and set off for–PATTAYA CITY, a dreamy paradise ~ ~

6. Fengyue Pedestrian Street

On the way to PATTAYA, the tour guide kept urging everyone to be open-minded. It is already evening to arrive at PATTAYA. After dinner, just go directly to Fengyue Pedestrian Street (* *) to enjoy the nightlife of the open Pattaya ~ ~

When the lights were on, the bustling * * in the pedestrian street told us that a worm was slowly waking up during the day.

Soon it will become a dragon ~ ~

The streets are full of all kinds of handicrafts and small toys, full of beautiful things in eyes, and the price is not expensive ~ ~

The funniest thing is that the four little old men in black and sunglasses in the above picture were well dressed, but they would open their clothes as soon as they heard the sound. The little JJ swung up and down, which is enough to show the degree of Thailand’s sexual openness culture ~ ~ This is not available in China ~ ~ Give me a close-up ~ ~

Apart from department stores, what makes me unbearable most is the fresh and attractive fat seafood, alas! Now think about it and swallow saliva ~ ~

The only time I saw a pig in Thailand was here, alas! ! Poor ~ ~

Of course, the most popular pedestrian streets are all kinds of bars and adult shows ~ ~ PATTAYA is the city with the largest number of land bars in the world, and its openness can be imagined ~ ~

The famous GO GO show is also on this street ~ ~ Thai sisters dressed in uniform and holding billboards to solicit business at the door, but this kind of place cannot be lost, because this is commonly known as fishing ground, depending on whether you are willing to be the slaughtered fish ~ ~

Performance Art at Pedestrian Street Head ~ ~

At the end of Fengyue Pedestrian Street, there is a hotel, where the original American sailors enjoyed themselves heartily, but now it has been gradually replaced by Russians ~ ~

The PATTAYA city logo under the dim light of night, against the background of the sea surface, reveals charm that makes countless handsome men and women full of reverie and longing ~ ~ even if they are drunk, they are also a kind of memory, because you can never forget what ~ here, in PATTAYA, in this city that never sleeps, you can’t be too crazy in how ~ ~

7. Oriental Princess

Through Fengyue Pedestrian Street, It’s a three-minute walk to the seaside pier, Let’s go to the Orient Princess to enjoy the charm of the real Thai transvestite, get in close contact with the transvestite, and have a good time ~ ~ Secretly tell you: the transvestite bag on board is only 20B Yo ~ ~ Because the Orient Princess is very large and cannot reach the shore, we need the following ferry boat to take us up, a distance of three minutes ~

码头上睡觉的很酷型的两只狗狗~~生活在这种没有杀戮而且那么开放城市里~~连狗狗都变得那么放荡不羁~~

From a distance, the Oriental Princess is like a warm and unrestrained Spice Girl, welcoming guests from all over the world ~ ~ ~

The Oriental Princess has prepared drinks, hot pot (pure decoration, no fire) and all kinds of snacks for the vast number of guests, all of which are free of charge ~ ~ But except drinks and drinks, snacks and fruits are basically untouched, because everyone is busy interacting with the transvestite ~ ~ the last group of transvestite sister movies ~ ~

Prosperity cannot drown the desolation of the heart ~ ~ Time is like water ~ ~

Who pretends not to be sad with a smile?

Your sunset, my face, who can achieve the long-cherished wish that will remain unchanged for a thousand years ~ ~ ~

Seeing here, there may still be many people who do not know whether the transvestite is a man or a woman, whether the transvestite can marry and have children, and how the transvestite came into being. Borrowing this chapter, I will sweep away illiteracy for those who still do not understand it ~ ~

Transvestite refers to the obvious female secondary sexual characteristics developed by male injection of estrogen from childhood. The world’s transvestites are mainly concentrated in Thailand, while Thailand’s transvestites are mainly concentrated in Bangkok and Pattaya, especially Pattaya. In Thailand, transvestites generally come from poor families with difficult livelihoods. It can be said that almost no rich children are willing to be transvestites. Although transvestites are not really accepted by the mainstream society in Thailand, they are fortunately not subject to great discrimination. There are transvestite students in schools and transvestite salespeople in shopping malls. Most transvestites choose this path to earn money, while others are born with gender dislocation. Thai law stipulates that transvestites are still men, but transvestites are positioned as women in daily social life. It is not easy for transvestites to gain a foothold in society. Only a handful of people can really become singing and dancing stars, become famous and make a lot of money. Most transvestites have to make money desperately for their livelihood and prepare for their old age (transvestites generally live in their 40s). As for these transvestite actors, the excellent ones earn 400,000 Thai baht per month, while the poor ones earn only about 1,000 yuan. On average, they perform more than three performances a day. The income from the performance belongs to the troupe owner, who basically uses “them” as a tool to get rich. Therefore, in order to survive, transvestites have to make money desperately. The small actors in the troupe earn very little, and it is very difficult to survive in a city like Bangkok with a monthly salary of 4,000 to 5,000 baht. As for getting married and having children, transvestites can have sex with men who fall in love with them, but it is impossible to have children because they are originally men and have no womb to give birth to babies. Knowing these life experiences of transvestites, don’t discriminate against them when you go to Thailand later. In fact, transvestites are not easy ~ ~

After enjoying the carnival with the transvestite, take the ferry boat back to the dock ~ ~ here is a hint: the transvestite on the Oriental Princess can touch, but she cannot take off her clothes, let alone tear at the transvestite’s clothes during the carnival, otherwise she will be severely reprimanded by the guards on board! ! After the transvestite performance starts, you cannot take photos with any tools. Be careful that your equipment will be confiscated.

At the end of this section, let’s take another look at the small team ~ ~

8. IX Imperial Temple + Qizhen Foshan

The IX Imperial Temple is located in Pattaya. Thais call it the “Imperial Temple” and it is a future palace specially built for today’s kings. The temple of the 9th Emperor honors the relics of eminent monks of all ages and their wax figures. These two scenic spots and the “Seven Treasures Foshan” to be seen later are called Thailand’s Three Wonders. You can’t take photos when visiting the wax museum, you need to take off your shoes and enter.

The architectural style of the 9th Imperial Temple is different from that of other temples. It is simple and exquisite. It is not as resplendent and magnificent as other temples. Everything follows the king’s instructions and is based on the principle of simplicity and simplicity. It has been built into a Buddha Hall, an abbot’s building, a monk’s house, a complex building, a pool, a kitchen and other necessary houses. Each building is white, indicating purity and beauty.

The 9th Imperial Temple is well afforested and can be called a delicate royal garden ~ ~

The wax figures of eminent monks in the wax museum are not allowed to be photographed ~ ~ Blind take a few ~ ~ Hee hee ~ ~

Leaving the 9th Imperial Temple, I went to visit Qizhen Foshan ~ ~ Qizhen Foshan to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the emperor’s accession to the throne. In particular, a statue of Sakyamuni Buddha was carved with laser and made of 4 tons of 24K gold sculpture ~ ~

According to legend, Qizhen Foshan is the place where an eminent monk found Long Mai for the ninth emperor today. He cut open a mountain in the shape of the mountain and cut down the surface of the mountain. A giant Buddha was carved with 4 tons of gold on the mountain. It is said that the meditation Buddha was drawn with high-tech laser, and the gold imported from Italy was inlaid with lines. The gold lines were dazzling. Sakyamuni’s relic was hidden in the heart of the Buddha. The Buddha statue with its seat is kind-hearted and can be seen from miles away ~ ~ in exclamation ~ ~

The Monk Boy under the Golden Buddha ~ ~

9. Dongba Paradise

Dongba Paradise is about 30 minutes’ drive from Pattaya City and covers a very large area. This is a private forest garden. Its founder is Mr. Wang Jinliang, a Thai Chinese and one of Thailand’s top ten richest men. The 7-11 convenience stores that can be seen everywhere on the streets and lanes were introduced into Thailand by him and can also be seen in some cities in China. There are three main tours in Dongba Paradise: watching folk performances, watching elephant performances and visiting tropical botanical gardens. Tickets for free travel are 250B.

Monkeys pick coconuts ~ ~ This performance takes 2 seconds. Coconuts are put on in advance. Monkeys pick one when they hear the owner’s instructions. If you miss it in the blink of an eye ~ ~

Under the tame of its master, the fierce tiger obediently lay on the ground and took photos with tourists ~ ~

Dongba Paradise can ride elephants around, 400 Thai baht for adults and 200 Thai baht for children.

We first walked into the theater, which can accommodate nearly 1,000 people, to watch Thai folk performances. Most of the performances of ethnic songs and dances are dances that show Thailand’s folk customs, as well as Thai boxing performances, performances that recreate the Thai-Myanmar war, and performances of ethnic customs. The performance lasts for about half an hour.

To be honest, I really don’t want to watch such a performance, and there are so many people in the venue, it’s hot, it’s all cooled by a few small fans, and the air is very dirty, so I came out after watching the two programs ~ ~

From the theater to the back is the elephant performance venue, because I came out early, so the elephant performance has not yet started. Many tourists are taking photos with elephants ~ ~ I dare not be rolled up by elephants, so I’ll show you two foreign girls ~ ~

After the folk performance, tourists swarmed in. The elephant performance began with shooting, dancing, bowling, drawing, massage, etc. I have to say, the IQ of elephants is really high, especially the painting, the painting is really good ~ ~ I took the performance part with DV, so I didn’t take the picture, so I won’t pass it on here ~ ~ Hint: traditional culture and elephant performance are performed four times a day: 10:15, 11:00, 15:00, 15:45, free travelers, don’t miss what you want to see ~ ~ was the dinner that day also eaten in the cafeteria of Dongba Paradise, or those kinds ~ ~

10. Xiaoyao Island-Jinsha Island-Self-funded Entertainment Project

The island tour is the most comfortable and exciting part of the whole trip. Are all the swimsuits and sunscreen shirts I mentioned in the previous preparations ready? Please equip them at this time ~ ~ When you come out of the hotel in the morning, the tour guide will give everyone a bath towel at the door. You should take good care of this bath towel and return it to the tour guide when you return to the hotel. If lost, 2000B will be compensated. The bathing suit had better be changed in the hotel, otherwise when playing with parachutes, there are many people and it is inconvenient to change clothes ~ ~

On the way to Xiaoyao Island, the speedboat will first take tourists to the platform where parachutes are played in the air. Air parachutes are self-funded projects. They are free to choose according to their personal preferences. The cost is 800B/person. When they came back, they saw some people writing 350B/person on Pattaya Beach. It seems that the water content is still very large. No wonder the tour guide said that this is his profitable project ~ ~ Well, don’t pursue it, come out to play, and happiness is the most important ~ ~

When parachuting in the air, The speedboat will slow down on the second turn to make you “skim the water.” When it comes to water, it actually means that the whole person falls into the sea, and then he pulls you up again, but the whole body is wet ~ ~ If you don’t wear a bathing suit or MM who is afraid of water, you should tell the staff in advance not to water, and he will mark your arm with no water ~ look at the figure below, “3-” means to water, “3*” or just write a number means not to water, you must say in advance ~ ~

Friends who don’t play games can sit here and rest ~ ~

But I suggest everyone to play, it’s really exciting ~ ~ mainly cool ~ ~ ha ha ~

After parachuting in the air, I took a speedboat for about 25 minutes to reach the first island, Xiaoyao Island. This island is just like its name. You can have fun and fun. All self-funded projects at sea are safe to play here. Submarine stroll, motorboat, banana boat, surfboard, double boating, etc., of which 1600B/person and 400B/person are self-funded items and can be freely selected. The other items are included in the tour fee, but they need to queue up ~ ~

The beach on Xiaoyao Island is relatively thin, However, due to too many tourists, There was a lot of broken glass on the beach, If you go to this island, Be sure to wear sandals ~ ~ My husband went to take a walk on the sea floor. I am afraid of water and dare not go down ~ ~ I can still take 36 photos under the sea. I give a CD ~ but I need to pay 900B. The tourists with the group can ask for one in groups of several people, which is quite cost-effective ~ ~ But judging from the films they took back, I don’t know at all, and I was cheated again ~ ~ Fortunately, it doesn’t matter if several people are in partnership ~ ~

On the trip, it was said that there were poker, mahjong, darts and other entertainment items on Xiaoyao Island. At first, I was still longing for them, but later, I almost laughed and sprayed them. Darts were only dart plates, poker was nowhere to be seen, and mahjong tiles were less than half left ~ ~ Alas ~ with this facility, how dare I write in the process?

Remind you that when you arrive on the island, there will be beach chairs for you to rest, but you must change the seal on your arm (middle of the figure below) ~ ~ If you don’t affix the seal, then you have to pay 10B to go to the toilet, and you can’t sit in chairs when you return to the rest area. Thais are rigid in doing business. You don’t think he will remember you.

The carnival of the small team is indispensable ~ ~ ~ ~ and the specially invited photographer of this trip, my husband, a fat lao ma ma ~ ~

Xiaoyao Island takes about 90 minutes to play, and then takes a speedboat to Jinsha Island for a seafood dinner ~ ~ Seafood dinner was introduced in the previous “Food” chapter and will not be mentioned here. Personally, I feel that the sand beach on Jinsha Island is really not in vain. The sand is much thinner and cleaner than that on Xiaoyao Island. Therefore, most Europeans and Americans play in the Golden Beach, Wearing all kinds of bikinis, swimming and sunbathing are very relaxing ~ ~ But I found that people swimming in the sea do not have Chinese tourists ~ ~ The tour guide said that the Chinese are afraid of sunbathing ~ I know he is bluffing ~ ~ In fact, he gives a total of 90 minutes on the island. After dinner, he has to stroll around the market street on the island and buy some souvenirs. Where is there time to swim? It was my husband who recognized the beach here and went to the sea alone to play with a group of foreigners for half an hour ~ ~

Friendly Reminder: All the sea events you want to play are on Xiaoyao Island. Except shopping and swimming, all events on Jinsha Island are not allowed to be played, because the people on the island will extort money from tourists. Because you don’t understand the language, you will feel very cheap, but when you come back from playing, he will change the price he said from Thai baht to RMB, then you will suffer a great loss ~ ~ the tour guide can’t help you ~ ~

Souvenirs and sha long (that is, the piece of cloth used as skirts) on sands island are cheaper, much cheaper than what we bought in Bangkok ~ ~ and there are also bargaining here ~ ~ but there are some floating merchants who buy leather goods in the market, you should never believe ~ ~ the crocodile skin and pearl fish skin he sells are only 200-500B, do you think pie may fall from the sky? ? If you want to buy real goods, I will talk about it later ~ ~

After playing on the island, we took a speedboat back to PATTAYA ~ ~ Pattaya’s city sign as if you could see it anywhere ~ ~

11. Tropical Fruit Garden

The Tropical Fruit Garden in PATTAYA, There are all kinds of tropical fruits planted in it. There are mangoes, durian, mangosteen, grapefruit, guava, jackfruit, pitaya, longan, etc. But maybe it’s a little late for us to go, A lot of fruits have already been put on the market ~ ~ so we basically didn’t see what fruits on the trees ~ ~ then we went to taste the fruits together ~ ~ the itinerary said that we would eat until we were full. But there is really no valuable and delicious fruit variety in what, In fact, it is a form of dealing with travel agencies ~ ~ Let’s think about it. If we eat enough, durian alone can eat him down ~ ~ When we went, the price of gold pillows on the market was 100B/kg, which was not much different from the domestic price ~ ~ The fruits that can be eaten are the common ones such as watermelons, pineapples, grapefruit, etc. ~ ~

The collection office was impressively written with the eight characters “I can’t finish eating and can’t walk around”. After looking at the photos, how did it feel like the government was giving beggars free lunch ~ ~ depressed ~ ~

12. 93rd Division Museum

The Tropical Fruit Garden is the 93rd Division Museum. Perhaps many people do not know the significance of visiting this scenic spot is what ~ ~ Then I would like to briefly tell you ~ ~ This is a place where the then “Thaksin” government opened up a place for Chinese people in the Golden Triangle to live together, and it is also one of the economic sources for people in the Golden Triangle to live. Now the people here are the second generation and the third generation. According to the people here, their previous generation was mainly a Chinese Kuomintang expeditionary force that had entered Myanmar during World War II, and a Kuomintang unit that had been scattered during the War of Liberation and had been working as a mercenary in the Golden Triangle. The Thai government has strict regulations for those who can work here. Must be married, must have children. Every family can only live here for half a year. Make some money. Then rotate other families. People living here are not allowed to walk out of a village about 2 square kilometers in size. Because they have no nationality. Taiwan does not want them, nor does the mainland recognize them. They are truly stranded Chinese children. The place where they really live is called “Mesla” and the living conditions are very difficult. Fei Yuqing has been there and created a touching song called “Mei Si Le”.

This lovely baby slept so peacefully in the hammock. How could he know that he was an unrecognized Chinese? ?

Without nationality, one cannot enjoy medical treatment if one is ill, without nationality, one cannot go to school if one has no nationality, one cannot have the minimum right to be a human being… after the visit, many people did not speak. I think this may be the only scenic spot in Thailand that makes the Chinese heartache ~ ~

13. Golden Buddha Temple

The first thing to enter the Golden Buddha Temple is to pay homage to the four-sided Buddha. For flower 20B, please invite 12 incense sticks and a wreath. Then, from the front (the side with feet), you will pay homage in turn. After paying homage, you will insert three incense sticks. The four sides respectively represent peace and health, successful career, happy marriage and to be No.1. If you have a greater demand for any aspect at present, put the wreath on the corresponding side. Then find a tour guide to take two pieces of gold foil and give Buddha gold after entering the hall. In the same sentence, Thailand’s Buddha is really very spiritual ~ because no photos are allowed in the temple, let’s send out some scenery in the courtyard ~ ~

14. Pacific Viewing Platform

15. Riding Elephants and Hanging Crocodiles

Speaking of riding an elephant, in fact, I am not so willing. I really feel a little pitiful that a 3-ton monster is so ridden. But follow the group, everyone ride, ride it ~ ~

The name of the elephant we are riding is Ham to Ya (Thai pronunciation), and it is already 30 years old, while the elephant slave of this head is 13 years old, and he is still a minor child ~ ~ He prefers communication, and he also comes down to take photos of us with a camera in the middle ~ ~ A very enthusiastic child ~ ~

Speaking of hanging crocodiles, it is simply cheating ~ ~ a small river ditch less than 20 meters, a cage boat, after boarding the boat, everyone will send a pole hanging chicken to let you hang crocodiles ~ ~ but the crocodiles lying on the bank will not move, just like dead, I don’t know whether they are full or other what reasons. The boatman walked back and forth with the boat, but he didn’t feed any chicken. It was really sad ~ ~ I thought I had to see the real crocodile in Bangkok ~ ~

16. Adult Show

When I arrive in Thailand and PATTAYA, I don’t watch a human show, which is tantamount to a trip for nothing. As I said earlier, as soon as the tour guide P Lin gets on the bus, let’s let go of our thoughts, otherwise we will not have fun. Our group includes two adult shows. Other teams are all self-funded projects and are all competing to see them. Why don’t we go for free? After discussion, several girls cannot be left behind ~ ~ PATTAYA’s adult shows are everywhere, but the larger ones are three-in-one. Tickets are 2400B, or about 500 RMB. The venues are large and spacious, and the contents are very open. The so-called three-in-one refers to men, women and transvestites. Here, all your doubts about the privacy of transvestites can be solved. No photos are allowed inside. The guards are very strict. Before entering the site, the cameras, mobile phones and DV are all handed over to the tour guide for safekeeping.

Friendly reminder: If the girl is conservative and timid, and just wants to watch the excitement, then you’d better find a place where there are many boys to sit, and never have several girls sitting together, because there will be naked men coming down and standing in front of you in the middle of the performance. The more you are afraid of him, the more excited you are, ha ha ~ ~

The other venue is to watch the performance of European and American golden cats. The environment of this venue is much worse. There are many foreigners in the audience. If you sit in the front row and a man and a woman in the middle have sex, you will put the woman on the legs of the audience in the front row to exercise. Oh, it’s really bad to say ~ go and see it yourself ~ ~ Photography is also not allowed here ~ ~

After watching the adult show, the chapter of “music” can finally end ~ ~ very tired ~ ~ but can’t rest, continue ~ ~ GO ~ ~ ~

6. Purchase

In this chapter on shopping, the focus is to introduce and analyze the shopping points arranged by travel agencies, and to analyze the quality, price and domestic market of commodities, hoping to be helpful for you to prepare to go to Thailand ~ ~

1. Royal Jewelry Exhibition Center

Royal Gems International Company Limited is a two-storey resplendent building located in Latkhawan County, Bangkok, Thailand. It is the world’s largest jewelry store. Inside is a 6.3-foot-high and 35-ton white jade Buddha imitation of Peng Shiluo Prefecture. This is a popular shopping and sightseeing spot for sightseeing groups from China, Japan and the Republic of Korea. The second floor is a gem area, selling gem products from Beibi Prefecture in the central part of Thailand and Jidalat Prefecture in the eastern part. Thailand is rich in red and sapphire, and the quality of gem products here is quite good. The price is also much cheaper than that in China ~ ~ a ruby bracelet is 1000 ~ 1500 yuan cheaper than that in China, Therefore, those who like precious stones can sell them as much as possible ~ ~ and the jewelry bought here has a unique identification certificate. After 10 years, you can still come back with the certificate to change the style ~ ~ There are leather products, five-color porcelain, tin, bath sesame oil and other products on the first floor. The price is moderate, the quality is up to standard, and you can also buy them at ease.

Friendly reminder: The jewelry center is extremely cold, so remember to take your coat when girls get off the bus ~ ~

2. Leather Exhibition Center

Thailand Leather Exhibition Center mainly sells leather belts, wallets and other ornaments with local customs made of crocodile skin, pearl fish skin, elephant skin, snake skin, shark skin, lizard skin, etc. It is exquisite and meticulous and is very popular with tourists from all over the world. Especially crocodile skin and pearl fish skin, Exquisite style, The workmanship is very exquisite, The most important thing is that the price is much cheaper than that in China. Crocodile skin bags and handbags are about 5,000 ~ 10,000 yuan, The new style of the pearl fish skin handbag is very beautiful. The price is around 2500 yuan ~ ~ Don’t hesitate to like it, I bought a pearl fish skin handbag and an elephant skin wallet ~ ~ Personally, I feel that although the crocodile skin handbag is very good, it is suitable for people who are slightly older. Young people are not suitable for it. The pearl fish skin is beautiful and durable, and is very suitable for young people to use ~ ~ Of course, this is purely personal opinion, for reference only ~ ~

The self-service hot pot eaten at noon in the leather display center tasted good, but there were too many people and some chaos ~ ~

3. Royal Viper Research Center

The Thai Poisonous Snake Research Center is a non-profit organization. As it was previously monopolized by the royal family, it is now also known as the “Thai Royal Poisonous Snake Research Center”. Now the research center has been openly regarded as one of the most important tourism projects in Thailand.

Thailand is called the treasure house of poisonous snakes and produces a lot of snakes. The research institute keeps living poisonous snakes. All kinds of poisonous snakes are classified and kept in well-equipped glass rooms. Maintain humidity and temperature suitable for snake survival in the room. Cobra, Agkistrodon halys, Bungarus multicinctus and other poisonous snakes rest on the ground in a disk-shaped ring, or climb on trees, commanding and carefree. Tourists can see the demonstration performance of specialized personnel extracting snake venom here, and can also watch the wonderful performance of snake experts demonstrating catching snakes empty-handed.

Extract snake venom ~ ~ ~

There will be a professional doctor who will tell you about the efficacy of snake venom and 10 kinds of snake medicine products such as Jiedu Dan, which are mainly recommended. ~ ~ The efficacy is still relatively significant ~ ~ The price ranges from 800 to 1200 yuan. However, the price of snake medicine products here is much higher than that in China (I mean exactly the same products, not the same type of products), so if you like it, don’t buy it there, it will cost a lot more ~ ~

But the lotus flowers in the courtyard of the research center are very beautiful ~ ~ I like them very much ~ ~

4. Original Stone Museum

The original stone museum has collected rare stones, strange stones and precious stones from all over the world. Only two places in the world have not taken stones. The most colorful ones in the museum are the original stone puzzles hanging on the wall. Although the composition and color of the painting are extremely common, they are very precious because they are made up of stones from various countries. Therefore, the pictures are all collections and not for sale. The museum mainly popularizes the knowledge of “stone”, so it mainly displays various specimens and samples. The merchandise displayed by the attached sales department is very ordinary and cannot arouse tourists’ desire to buy.

The Thai royal family has always been proud of the group photos of all the royal families in the world ~ ~

All kinds of original stone works ~ ~

Purchase Tips: The original stone works have no purchasing value, and the good works are expensive. Instead, there are essential oil soap, aromatherapy and latex pillows on the first floor that can be purchased. In particular, it is pointed out that the essential oil soap is of good quality, 150B pieces, with various fragrances and very good effects. Some small shops outside buy three pieces for 100B, but the fragrance is obviously much lighter. Thailand’s latex is especially the best in Phuket Island. Latex pillows and mattresses are really good, I bought three pillows, 3500B one, swipe card worth more than 700 RMB, much cheaper than in China, and the latex content reached 97%, the store’s packaging is very considerate, directly packed in cartons, and the pillow is vacuum compressed, very thin, put on the bus directly to the airport for check-in, very convenient, our group bought a lot, so that finally the airport luggage cart a whole box ~ ~

5. Bird’s Nest Shop and Local Specialty Shop

Bird’s Nest Store mainly understands the formation and collection of bird’s nest and the authenticity identification of blood swallows. Bird’s nest products are expensive. The price of a box of swallow lamps is about 35,000 yuan, and the price of a box of swallow shreds is several thousand yuan. I don’t know much about bird’s nest and don’t have so much money, so I won’t consider it. The store has processed bird’s nest soup to taste, 200B a bowl, the quantity is very small, it is estimated that it is only one or two soups ~ ~

Local products shops have a lot of sugar, crisp and flour, which can be tasted free of charge at a moderate price and purchased according to personal needs.

6. King power duty-free shop

Duty-free shops are located at Bangkok’s Suwannabe International Airport. There are many world famous brands such as cosmetics, electrical appliances, watches and clothing. L ‘Or é al cosmetics and LEE clothing are much cheaper than domestic prices. The products on the second floor cannot be picked up on site. They cannot be picked up until they pass the customs at the airport. Goods on the first floor can be picked up on the spot, but you can apply for tax refund if you shop for 2000B or more, but you must have 5000B or more to get cash. However, the Thai baht is also returned. If the quantity is not large, it can be consumed directly at the duty-free shop at the airport.

Key Tip: All goods picked up by duty-free shops can be refunded, but note that you must rely on your purchase invoice and yellow list to go through the tax refund formalities (a yellow A4 paper) at the tax refund counter at the exit and wait until the airport to refund the money. However, tax refund procedures can only be handled on the same day. We flew at Langman Airport, and many members of our group did not go through the tax refund formalities on the same day, so they did not refund the tax in the end. Therefore, if you go back, you must pay attention to this time and handle it on the same day.

7. Convenience stores (non-itinerary shopping points)

Convenience stores in Thailand have one every 100 meters. 7-Levren and family mart are everywhere. You may not quite understand why it is called 7-11. In fact, it was originally a supermarket chain in the United States. It opened at 7 o’clock in the morning and closed at 11 o’clock in the evening. After being introduced into Thailand by Mr. Wang Jinliang, it became open 24 hours a day. Convenience stores have a complete range of things, and the price is also cheap, which is very convenient. Especially Yangledo, the price is very cheap, I have to drink every night.

Beer and cigarettes in Thailand are very expensive, and there are very scary photos on cigarettes, encouraging citizens to quit smoking ~ ~

At the gate of convenience stores, there are often many stray dogs sleeping there at night, but everyone need not be afraid. Thailand is a Buddhist country, no one will hurt dogs, and dogs will not take the initiative to attack people ~ ~ People and animals live in harmony ~ ~

Well, that’s all for the chapter on shopping. The only regret of following the group is that there is too little time for free shopping ~ ~ After all, everything has its gains and losses ~ ~

Seven. Small teams are full of joy.

Here I would like to introduce some experience to you, that is, a small team of 6-8 people in a large team according to their temper, character, hobbies and age. Some people will say that when they go to Thailand, they are usually small couples or young couples with company. Why do they have to form a team? Then you are wrong ~ ~ I’ll give you an analysis of the advantages of the next small team ~ ~

1. Safer. Six to eight people gather together to take care of each other. After all, outbound travel is no better than at home. Sometimes when you both play with the project, you can let the team members look at the items, which is safer. Moreover, when going out, when there are more people, the strength will be great. Even if you go out to play at night, so many people will not have big problems with what. Just imagine, if only you couple, do you dare to go out at night?

2. More lively. When there are too many people and people, it is the same everywhere. Friends with congenial temper and character will gather together and have many common topics. Everyone will talk about each other and be very lively. Moreover, when there are more people, there will be more ideas. Any action will hit it off and you will not be cheated when shopping independently.

3, more convenient. You don’t just want to take a single photo when you go out to play, then ask your team friends for help ~ ~ Don’t be embarrassed, friends are mutual.

4. Through these days of coexistence abroad, strangers who don’t know each other have become familiar with each other. Everyone understands each other and becomes good friends after returning home. Moreover, friends made through outbound travel are often found in all provinces and regions, and there will be opportunities to meet for travel in the future. Don’t you think it is a matter of killing two birds with one stone?

Let’s solemnly introduce our small team. I have seen several films in front of me. I won’t write my full name out of privacy. Let’s introduce it in Thailand’s way of address:

Lao ma ma: P Han, P Yang (big), P Qu, P Yang (small)

Shui jing jing: P Wang, P Mi, P (Zheng), P He

Jinan, the spring city, keeps high ~ ~

You may wonder why you do the thumb-down movement, because the map of Thailand is like the shape of our left hand sticking out the thumb-down finger, which does not mean weak ~ ~

Goodbye, Bangkok ~ ~ BATTAYA ~ ~ We’ll see you soon ~ ~

All right, I’ve finally finished writing ~ ~ Please criticize and correct the improper points in the article ~ ~

Sumi Island-Simple and Beautiful, Blue Gentle Temptation

The beauty of Sumi Island, with its snow-white sand beaches and abundant natural beauty,

It can be called a diamond in the rough without carving. “I would rather refuse the glory of movie scene selection,

But also to keep her pure nature isolated from the world. “

Sumi Island is my favorite place. Paradise like Xanadu, simple folk customs,

Life is healthy and natural, without industrial pollution.

The people of Sumi Island are simple and kind, always with friendly smiles.

The island is conveniently accessible, with a 50-kilometre roundabout road surrounding the coastline

The four of us rented a “pickup truck” (as the locals call it)-they could cross the country and play with it.

More convenient!

Driving the car almost all over the island-get on the bus when it gets hot-turn on the air conditioner! (with rental fee)

And the cost of oil is less than 200 yuan RMB/day, which is more suitable than taking a taxi)

The Giant Buddha, a Famous Scenery of Sumi Island

The water of Tao Island is clear and calm, and there are fish on the shore. It is very suitable for snorkeling and swimming.

The famous herringbone beach!

The Three Kingdoms, the First Day of 50 Days, Begins with Asian Airlines

During these 50 days, I wandered in Thailand, Myanmar and Cambodia, of which I walked alone in Cambodia for 20 days.

Day 1 Thursday, May 19, 2011 Nanjing-Shenzhen-Bangkok

I started with AirAsia because I bought 7 air tickets for AirAsia. I have to talk about AirAsia.

Today is my eighth trip to AirAsia. Last February, Malaysia, Singapore and Brunei were all AirAsia. I am really a staunch supporter and have a special liking. AirAsia’s big red, straight, and colourful, chiseled refreshing eye-catching, low but punctual fares, service charges but reasonable. I think it can be called a stimulant for travelers.

Add a few more photos taken last year to complete the industrial chain of AirAsia. I didn’t mean to advertise for AirAsia, but I finished my trip on May 8 and took China Eastern Airlines back to Nanjing from Shenzhen. The flight at 5: 40 p.m. Was delayed again and again and didn’t get home until 1: 00 p.m. You said, can I not make comparisons?
