Graphic Design Ramon is a Canadian Filipino and Bangkok resident, a teacher, and a great friend of mine. He also happens to be a wizard at graphic design and formerly operated his own online design business. When I asked Ramon for help creating the graphics for this eBook, he immedi- ately had ideas. What he came up with, I would have never even been able to dream of. From the front cover, to the templates of each page, I’m still impressed how good it looks - and it wouldn’t have been achievable without Ramon. If you need top quality graphic design, get in touch with my buddy Ramon. Thai Translation There’s no person that’s more special to me than my girlfriend Ying. On top of doing all the Thai translation within this eBook, on countless occasions she has also patiently waited as I annoyingly take photos of every single thing we eat (before we eat it), gone on long and sweaty missions just to find certain foods (yes, I’m obsessed), and she’s also the one who films many of my YouTube videos. I cannot thank Ying enough for all her help and support! 44 about the author I flew into Bangkok in early 2009 with no intention of staying longer than whatever amount of time I felt neces- sary. I stayed for about two weeks But I didn’t leave Southeast Asia, in- stead I traveled around the region for about six months before returning to With the best fruit in the world - durian! Bangkok to rendezvous with a friend. It was at this time that I settled in Bangkok, rented my first studio apartment, and eventually signed a contract to teach English for an entire year (quite a seri- ous commitment for a guy with no plans). I needed to replenish the funds, and Bangkok was as good or better of a place to do that as any. English teaching wasn’t for me However, while teaching and collecting paychecks, I was able to continue blog- ging, writing, and tinkering with various online projects. After completing the year, I made up my mind to live frugally, continue traveling (with Bangkok as a home base), and pursue both food and travel. I’m an explorer I like to learn about new cultures, submerse myself into unknown territories, 55 and most of all, I enjoy eating and understanding food from around the world. As much as I love to sit at my laptop blogging and surfing the web, I like to wan- der, discover unique attractions, and go on food pilgrimages. Bangkok is a city that has so many different layers and dimensions; It’s a city that’s loaded with an overwhelming quantity of attractions, historically signifi- cant sites, endless street buffets, and a fusion of cultures. And that’s precisely why I wrote this eBook: to be a useful, practical, and enter- taining resource for both short term tourists and long term residents. It’s a guide that will hopefully spark adventures and supply ideas which will assist in discov- ering the wonders of Bangkok. - Mark Wiens P.S. Nowadays, I maintain both Migrationology.com, where I publish my travel and street experiences, and EatingThaiFood.com, a site that focuses on Bangkok food. Also, check out the latest videos on my YouTube channel, and be sure to drop by my Facebook Fanpage and say “Hi.” If you have any questions or would like to contact me for any reason, I’d love to hear from you. E-mail me at: [email protected]. One of my favorite foods in the world - stir fried stink beans! 6 introduction One could create an entire hundred- and-one list of only temples or activi- ties that revolve around eating in Bang- kok - so what I’ve tried to do is keep things balanced, a well-rounded list. While eBook: 101 Things To Do In Bangkok does include some of the most famous attractions in Bangkok, it also highlights some unique aspects of the city, as well as other things that showcase Thai culture, food, and life- style. In order to cater to both a short term tourist and a long term resident, this guide includes a diverse range of activi- ties; Some are perfect for a two day visit, others I would recommend only if you remain in Thailand for a longer period of time. Wat Rakang (Bell Temple) Also, I’m an advocate for crafting a unique itinerary that relates to what is most interesting for you (you may be passionate about shopping, so don’t go to muse- ums - focus on your interests). This eBook is a collection of exploration ideas and tips. It’s a guide that is not only meant to be a list of attractions, but also a wake up call to the endless pos- sibilities and opportunities that Bangkok presents. 77 If I had just one day in Bangkok, this is what I would do: 1. Begin the day at Khlong Lat Mayom Floating Market (#39 - only open on weekends) 2. Wat Arun - Temple of Dawn (#57) 3. Grand Palace (#56) and Wat Phra Kaew (#55) 4. Wang Lang Market for lunch (#85) 5. Khlong Toey Market (#51) or Chatuchak Weekend Market (#45 - only open on weekends) 6. Benjakiti Park (#14) or Lumpini Park (#6) in the late afternoon 7. Victory Monument for food and shopping (#92, boat noodles or Kuang Seafoods restaurant) 8. Yaowarat Chinatown for street food and action (#28) 9. Nightlife - perhaps a beverage and view at one of Bangkok’s sky bars (#35) Suki Haeng (Glass Noodles w/ Vegetabes) Note: This is a very packed day, so this amount of activities could easily be stretched for 2 days as well.

Bangkok Nightlife – Things to Explore Yodpiman River Walk Yodpiman River Walk, Bangkok Yodpiman River Walk is a recently conceived walk overlooking the River Chao Phraya. Highlight of this walk are 6 classic buildings that have been renovated to represent the architecture of various eras of Thai history – right from the times of Ayutthaya to modern times, although the western influence on the architecture is more than visible. Let me walk you through these buildings quickly: Buildings Siam Prakan and Viman Ayothaya represent the fortress town of Ayutthaya. Nava Panich building represents the Thon Buri period that preceded the Rattanakosin period. It represents the water transportation network of the yesteryears when there used to be floating houses and bustling trade through river network. Vijit Phra Nakhon and Yodpiman Thani Buildings celebrates the Rattanakosin period that started in late 18th CE. Buri Saran Building in the corner seems to be the post Rattankosin, modern building.

  • A Model for the Management of Cultural Tourism at Temples in Bangkok, Thailand
    Asian Culture and History; Vol. 6, No. 2; 2014 ISSN 1916-9655 E-ISSN 1916-9663 Published by Canadian Center of Science and Education A Model for the Management of Cultural Tourism at Temples in Bangkok, Thailand Phra Thanuthat Nasing1, Chamnan Rodhetbhai1 & Ying Keeratiburana1 1 The Faculty of Cultural Science, Mahasarakham University, Khamriang Sub-District, Kantarawichai District, Maha Sarakham Province, Thailand Correspondence: Phra Thanuthat Nasing, The Faculty of Cultural Science, Mahasarakham University, Khamriang Sub-District, Kantarawichai District, Maha Sarakham Province 44150, Thailand. E-mail: [email protected] Received: May 20, 2014 Accepted: June 12, 2014 Online Published: June 26, 2014 doi:10.5539/ach.v6n2p242 URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.5539/ach.v6n2p242 Abstract This qualitative investigation aims to identify problems with cultural tourism in nine Thai temples and develop a model for improved tourism management. Data was collected by document research, observation, interview and focus group discussion. Results show that temples suffer from a lack of maintenance, poor service, inadequate tourist facilities, minimal community participation and inefficient public relations. A management model to combat these problems was designed by parties from each temple at a workshop. The model provides an eight-part strategy to increase the tourism potential of temples in Bangkok: temple site, safety, conveniences, attractions, services, public relations, cultural tourism and management. Keywords: management, cultural tourism, temples, Thailand, development 1. Introduction When Chao Phraya Chakri deposed King Taksin of the Thonburi Kingdom in 1982, he relocated the Siamese capital city to Bangkok and revived society under the name of his new Rattanakosin Kingdom (Prathepweti, 1995). Although royal monasteries had been commissioned much earlier in Thai history, there was a particular interest in their restoration during the reign of the Rattanakosin monarchs.

  • ESCAP PPP Case Study #1
    Public-Private Partnerships Case Study #1 Traffic Demand Risk: The case of Bangkok’s Skytrain (BTS) by Mathieu Verougstraete and Isabelle Enders (March 2014) The following case study examines the issue of traffic demand risk and sheds light on how the problem of inaccurate ridership forecasts can impact a PPP project by using the example of the Bangkok SkyTrain. TRAFFIC DEMAND RISK FIGURE 1 : ACTUAL/FORECAST TRAFFIC Even though literature is rich about theory and practice of traffic forecasting, insufficient attention has been paid to the predicted accuracy of traffic forecasting models and the consequences of occurring errors. Emperical studies suggest however that traffic forecasts in the transport sector are characterized by large errors and considerable optimism bias.1 This statement goes in line with the review conducted on PPP projects financed by the European Investment Bank which states that major issues in road projects BANGKOK BTS: CASE SUMMARY occurred because of traffic performance has been overestimated.
