Fascinating, vibrant, colorful and at times even mind boggling -

Bangkok, known to the Thais as "Krungthep", which means the City of
Angels, was established in 1782 by King Rama I as capital of Siam.
Over the past two centuries, it has developed into a great
metropolis with a population of over eight million. Like other
modern cities in the world, Bangkok boasts lots of massive
buildings, numerous luxurious hotels, shopping centres, and a modern
international airport. But Bangkok has also retained its traditional
charm. It is a mixture of East and West, the ancient and the modern.
Its surface has taken on the look of the present time, while
underneath the old ways are much alive in Thais' everyday life. So,
despite its modernization, Bangkok is still best suited for a
glimpse of the traditional arts, architecture, religion, and other
aspects of the culture of the Thai people.
