Bangkok กรุงเทพมหานคร


no update for a while... cos i went bangkok... :D

suvarnabhumi airport... dont know how to pronounce, so have to listen to the taxi driver repeat a few times.. my camera is heavy.. my tripod is heavy.. the weather is killing me...

The real full name of bangkok is "กรุงเทพมหานคร อมรรัตนโกสินทร์ มหินทรายุธยามหาดิลกภพ นพรัตน์ราชธานี บุรีรมย์อุดมราชนิเวศน์มหาสถาน อมรพิมานอวตารสถิต สักกะทัตติยะวิษณุกรรมประสิทธิ์".

dont ask me. I dont know how to pronounce. go check out wikipedia. it means "The city of angels, the great city, the eternal jewel city, the impregnable city of God Indra, the grand capital of the world endowed with nine precious gems, the happy city, abounding in an enormous Royal Palace that resembles the heavenly abode where reigns the reincarnated god, a city given by Indra and built by Vishnukam".
