Bangkok Trip :Day 2 ,Part I

Bangun tido seawal yg mungkin sebab nk cover byk tempat..tp last decide after breakfast la gerak...rugi plak nak start berjalan seawal 6pg sebab breakfast disediakan start pukul 6.30 pagi..
after taking breakfast, kami gerak ke BTS National stadium dan beli one day BTS pass...cost 130 bath utk unlimited ride for that date...destinasi yang dituju:

Victory Monument

If you travel by Skytrain (BTS) to Mo Chit en route to Chatuchak Weekend Market you'll catch the best view possible of this large military monument, built to commemorate Thailand's victory over French colonialists in Indochina. This was a brief and relatively bloodless war that led to the country regaining disputed land on its borders with Indochina.

How to get there? From BTS Skytrain Victory Monument Station, take exit 4 or, for a better perspective, continue walking onto the pedestrian overpass, which wraps around the monument.

Chatuchak Weekend Market

Once only popular among wholesalers and traders, Chatuchak Weekend Market has reached a landmark status as a must-visit place for tourists. Its sheer size and diverse collections of merchandise will bring any seasoned shoppers to their knees – this is where you can literally shop ‘till you drop’.

The 35-acre (68-rai) area of Chatuchak is home to more than 8,000 market stalls.Hop on the skytrain (BTS) to Mo Chit station, take exit no. 1 and follow the crowd until you see rows of canvas stalls selling clothes. Turn right while continuing to follow the crowd and you will see a small entrance that leads into the market (clothing section).

The weekend market is open on Saturdays and Sundays, 09:00 - 18:00, and Fridays 18:00 - 24:00. Plant sections are also open on Wednesdays and Thursdays, from 07:00 - 18:00.

Selepas sudah sesi bergambar kami meneruskan destinasi untuk shopping. Chatuchak weekend market!!!! Pasar yang paling terbesar di dunia if i'm not mistaken. Kat sini x shopping sgt just beli 1 helai dress yg berharga 179 bath [rasa menyesal x beli 2-3 helai..huhuuh...sebab dekat kedai tu paling murah yg jumpa] ,tapi sbb beli 3 helai share dgn kwn2, dapat lag murah, around 170 bath sahaja...dan 3 helai thai silk shawl yg berharga 100 bath/sehelai ..heheh..
itu sahaja hasil tangkapan ija di Chatuchak...My advice, bila dah berkenan tu terus beli ja sbb possibility utk jumpa balik kedai yang sama amatlah susah sebab besar sangat & tak ingat lorong mana yang dah masuk...hehehe...then lepas tu berehat seketika di Chatuchak Park..

Chatuchak Park

A large public park that sits next to Chatuchak Weekend Market you usually see from the BTS Mo Chit’s platform is a leisure and recreation spot for nearby residents. A visit to Chatuchak Park in the morning or during the weekend lets you see a slow side of Bangkok urbanites, who would come here to run, ride a bike or just relax under the trees.

Selepas berehat2, decide utk balik ke hotel utk letak barang dan berehat seketika.. sebelum naik BTS, ad bli skit souvenier keychain...5= 50bath....sebelum sambung berjalan2 lagi :)

So total expenses setakat ni,

Transportation : 130 bath

Shopping/Souvenier : 50 Bath +170 Bath =220 bath

Total : 350 bath
