With the exchange, it is hard not to find economic attractions in Bangkok, Thailand. However, there are a few tips for traveling U.S. dollars stretch even more and better travel experience.

The Grand Palace and the Temple of the Emerald Buddha

Yes, there is a registration fee (200 baht, about U.S. $ 6), but this show is a must for any visitor to Bangkok to see. It hosts a number of Thai architecture.

Temples and other nationalThe monuments have a strict dress code. No shorts, sleeveless tops, or a little 'bold dress. This is true for most religious sites around the world, but in Thailand, travelers should not wear open-toe slip (there is a strap behind the heel).

Thai Customs

This leads to watch some Thai traditions, the experienced traveler.

Shorts are appropriate only for children and the underclass.

The head is considered sacred (the closest to heaven), soDo not touch. In fact, try not to touch the locals at all.

The feet are treated with care. To point your feet is considered a person exposed to a severe insult and soles very rude (especially in religious places) down. Sit down with your feet tucked under the body.

N. public displays of affection. Press and hold the privacy of your room.

Like most countries, especially in Thailand, not to criticize the local government or monarchy.

This canas a set of rules, but most apply to almost all countries a traveler is a guest in
The Thais are very polite, so hard to express their disapproval.

Park Chatuchak weekend market

Here for thrifty travelers buy their souvenirs. With over 15,000 items (take a free map at the information booth), there's plenty to choose from. This is a place for haggling. Never take the first offer. Also be very careful about fakes (fake antiques, fake jewelry,etc.) and keep pickpockets (some small bills in a pocket for easy access and hide your wallet).

What to buy? Almost everything, especially trade. My mother is an elephant lover and Thailand, with respect for the animal, was the ideal place for the sculptures in teak (beware of wood drying and cracking when you return home).

Wat Pho (Temple of the Reclining Buddha)

With another very, very cheap entry price (20 baht), Wat Pholargest and oldest Buddhist temple in Bangkok. The highlight is of course the gold covered 46 meters long reclining Buddha. However, the construction and get the orchids were also significant.

Bangkok is a paradise for bargain hunters. Attractions, restaurants and shopping is cheap.
