Magical Bangkok: The more you play in Thailand, the happier you get
How to experience the classic and relaxed in Bangkok city, see how we play for a full day.
Visiting Bangkok, Thailand for blessings, if you don't go to the Grand Palace and the Jade Buddha Temple, you really haven't experienced the essence of this country. The Grand Palace, which has not been open for 3 years, we caught up this time and once again appreciated the beautiful scenery of the Grand Palace under the warm sunset.
The Grand Palace ticket is 500 baht per person. The Grand Palace is a symbol of the Bangkok dynasty. The architecture blends Thai and European styles. Brilliant and gorgeous, Bangkok is known as the "City of Angels" and the Grand Palace is the "Heavenly Palace" of Bangkok.
The Jade Buddha Temple is in the Grand Palace, where the national treasure of Thailand is stored. The Jade Buddha has three cassocks, and the King of Thailand will come to change it personally when the season changes in Thailand. What you see now is the winter cassock. They are all made of pure gold, gorgeous.
Free visa to Thailand for the 2024 New Year, the carnival activities have also kicked off!
The moon is full, the new year is here, everything is just right! 🙏
We were honored to visit the Queen Sirikit Textile Museum next to the Grand Palace, which is a rare museum open to the public, and we have learned a lot!
Riding a special tuk-tuk to enjoy the city scenery of the Rattanakosin Peninsula in Bangkok is also a must. You must experience the wind and electricity scene full of unconverted gasoline smell when you visit Bangkok.
Of course, the Four-faced Buddha must go to pray and worship, and by the way, you can visit the Central world, which is known as Asia's No.1, and take pictures with the Christmas tree and Pikachu. It is not an exaggeration to describe it here with a dazzling array of things, but the price is really not cheaper than in China.
Then go for an authentic Thai Spa, relax and relieve fatigue.
We were also fortunate to attend the "Magical Thailand Exclusive Tour" lawn outdoor party at the Siam Museum in Bangkok on the evening of December 26, 2023, organized by the Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT). We enjoyed the performances of Thai folk dances from different periods, and well-known Thai artists Cai Youfu (Da Wu) and Zheng Naixin performed on stage. The atmosphere is explosive!
Statue in the middle of the city road
During my visit to Bangkok this is what I always see from the overpass heading to Central World, the four faces of the Buddha statue. The front face represents career and life. Continuing clockwise, the second is symbolic of relationship and family, the third is for wealth, and the last for wisdom and health.
The four faces symbolize the four books of the Vedas, the Hindu scriptures and the source of all knowledge in the creation of the universe. The eight hands, symbolize the omnipresence and power of Lord Brahma.
The glistening Erawan Shrine was erected in 1956, adjacent to the then existent Erawan Hotel to ward off evil and to eliminate the bad karma believed caused by laying the foundations on the wrong date. Today it still glistens like a sacred golden island-emitting positivity, with strong whiffs of incense and flowers and the sound of prayers; almost cutting one off from the monotony of a busy inter junction.
Location : 494 Ratchadamri Rd, Lumphini, Pathum Wan, Bangkok 10330

Holla! Welcome to Bangkok!
Erawan Shrine is one of the most popular Hindu shrines in downtown Bangkok. It’s in front of Grand Hyatt Erawan Hotel, at the corner of Ploenchit and Ratchadamri Road.

Bangkok's four-faced Buddha, this is my third time here, and the popularity and incense of each visit is very strong. The four-faced Buddha, the Van Gogh is the main god of the Brahminism in India, and there are many places in the courtyards of Thailand and the Thai people. It is said that it was originally a Brahma, one of the three main gods of Hinduism and Brahmanism. In Southeast Asia, especially Thailand is considered to be the boundless mana, mastering the gods of wealth and wealth in the world; its four sides are facing southeast and northwest, respectively, for the believers to pray. Due to its similar appearance to Chinese Buddha statues, the Chinese translations are mostly four-faced Buddhas. It is located at the corner of the road next to the Hyatt Regency Bangkok Erawan and the Sogo Department Store. It is famous for its incense. When people worship the gods, they usually use flowers, incense sticks and wooden elephants, or release the sparrows. The rich people hire several girls dressed in ancient Thai national costumes to dance traditional dances with music in front of the Buddha statues. Thank God or votive, thank God for grace.
The vast majority of people in Thailand are Buddhist believers, and the four-faced Buddha is the most popular Buddha statue in Bangkok and even in Thailand. It is a pity if you come to Bangkok without a four-faced Buddha. It is said that the four-faced Buddha is very effective, so no matter what. The four-faced Buddha is full of people here, and the splendid four-faced Buddha is very conspicuous. Visitors who come to Bangkok will come here to see it.
The Erawan is located in the bustling intersection of downtown Bangkok, next to the Central World shopping center, where the BTS passes, so it is still very easy to find. On the way to the Erawan Shrine, someone will sell you candles, flowers, and so on. If you plan to go to worship, then these things are needed, and they are not expensive. The four-faced Buddha is a four-faced Buddha, representing health, career, love, and fortune. The four-faced Buddha needs to start from the front and then rotate clockwise. Every Buddha needs to worship. The incense of the
four-faced Buddha is very strong. The people who come to worship are also in a constant stream. There are many candles and flowers. The staff has been constantly cleaning up. In addition to the traditional way of worship, Thai traditional dance can also be used here. Expressing my wish, there are a lot of dancers in the next cabin, and it is also very hard to perform. To be honest, Thai dance sometimes seems quite interesting.
On the bridge of BTS, here is the best angle to see the four-faced Buddha. You can see that the place where the four-faced Buddha is really small, but it is very lively.

You can also get there via the intercontinental hotel walkway and beside the holiday inn Bangkok hotel.
I didn't expect we would stay in Bangkok for five days
Although many people use Bangkok as a transit hub and only stay for 1-2 days before heading to Pattaya or Chiang Mai, we stayed in Bangkok for five days and still felt it wasn't enough.
DAY1 Arrived in Bangkok at night
DAY2 SAIM District City Walk
Erawan Shrine - Central World - Siam Paragon - SAIM CENTER - SAIM DISCOVERY - Gaysorn Village - SANYA Center - Chulalongkorn University Food Street
DAY3 Pattaya Coral Island one-day group tour + Thai massage
DAY4 Riverside District City Walk
Wat Arun Thai costume photo shoot - Bangkok Museum - ICONSAIM - Riverside restaurant dinner
DAY5 Maeklong Railway Market + Floating Market one-day private car + Big C shopping
DAY6 Return to Shanghai
Pre-trip Preparation
✓SIM card
✓Cash 10,000 Thai Baht (about 2000 RMB)
✓Travel insurance
✓Download APPs
The most used APPs this time were Grab and Google Maps. It's better to register for Grab in your home country because it requires a verification code, which might be hard to receive in Bangkok (I couldn't receive the verification code at all in Bangkok, luckily Fei had completed the registration beforehand, otherwise it would have been 'embarrassing').
Grab has a good response time for calling a ride (including motorcycles), and the prices are fixed. If you're worried about credit card fraud, you can ask the driver to accept cash, and they won't refuse, but try to prepare small change to avoid issues with change.
Tuk-tuk: The local app is called Muvimi, which prevents you from being overcharged, but you can't call a tuk-tuk from another district, and you can't withdraw money after topping up, which is a bit inconvenient.
✓Book hotel + flight (prepare electronic itinerary) The airline staff said that customs might ask about it when entering the country. If you have a round-trip ticket, 10,000 Thai Baht is enough; if you don't have a return ticket, you need 20,000 Thai Baht (they just want you to spend money). In reality, when entering through Don Mueang, they didn't ask anything, it was all electronic scanning and fingerprinting.
In Thailand, don't miss this intersection in Bangkok
After arriving in Bangkok, there is a must-visit attraction: the Erawan Shrine, also known as Brahma, is one of the most famous and popular temples in Bangkok, and it is also a sacred place for making wishes. The Erawan Shrine is characterized by its four-faced design, with each face representing the four Brahma Viharas: loving-kindness, compassion, sympathetic joy, and equanimity. The shrine attracts a large number of tourists and pilgrims.
📍 The Erawan Shrine is located at the corner of the intersection of Ratchadamri Road and Phloen Chit Road in the heart of Bangkok, northeast of the main entrance of Central World (Central World Shopping Center).
🚉 Take the BTS Skytrain to Chit Lom station or Siam station, and the Erawan Shrine is about 350 meters away. Walk to Central World (Central World Shopping Center), and you will see the Erawan Shrine crowded with worshippers~

Departing from Beijing | Six Days and Five Nights Travel Guide to Thailand
📅 Itinerary: Beijing - Chiang Mai - Bangkok - Phuket Island
✈️ I bought the tickets during the AirAsia mega sale in June. The outbound flight is from Beijing to Chiang Mai, and the return flight is from Phuket Island back to Beijing.
📍 Chiang Mai (1.5 days)
Attractions: Tha Phae Gate, Chiang Mai Old City, Chiang Mai University, Coco Market
Chiang Mai is a city with a slow pace, where attractions are concentrated, and one to two days is enough to visit them all. The most unique features are the temples and markets.
🔹 Chiang Mai Old City (Grass Market, Nimman Road)
The old city of Chiang Mai is a place for shopping and leisure, which refers to the streets of the old town. The Grass Market and Nimman Road are particularly distinctive.
🔹 Tha Phae Gate🕊️
Tha Phae Gate is known for its pigeons. You can feed the pigeons and interact with them for photos. There is also a photo check-in service available, but the method of chasing away the pigeons is very aggressive...
🔹 Chiang Mai University🏫
There is a street food market and a small commodities market at the entrance of Chiang Mai University, which is great for shopping. The street food is cheap and delicious, and there are many clothing stores. Sisters who want to buy Thai school uniforms must not miss this place.
🔹 Coco Market🌴
There are many interesting markets in Chiang Mai. Due to time constraints, we chose this market that is only open on weekends, with lots of snacks and handicrafts. However, I do not recommend buying handicrafts here, as they are very expensive.
📍 Bangkok (2 days)
day1: Erawan Shrine, Siam Shopping Center, King Power Duty-Free Shop
day2: Wat Arun, Chao Phraya River Sunset, Train Night Market
🔹 Erawan Shrine: To pray for wealth, safety, health, and career success, you must go! There are some precautions when praying, it is recommended to understand them in advance.
🔹 Siam Shopping District: Allow enough time, as traffic congestion is severe! Many malls offer taxi services, which can charge by the meter.
🔹 Wat Arun: As a half-Dai person, I haven't worn Dai clothing for over a decade. I want to highly recommend the shop I visited at that time, which seems to be the third clothing store after the second intersection (the aunt in the photo), the shop was newly opened, and the clothes were very clean. I met a very cute shop owner. I said I wanted bling bling, and the aunt matched me with a bunch of gold and silver jewelry, from hair accessories, bracelets to earrings, necklaces, and waist chains, fulfilling my desire to wear gold and silver.
🔹 Chao Phraya River Sunset: There are many riverside restaurants where you can watch the sunset, and there is also lively disco music on the cruise ships. I recommend a restaurant, vivi the coffee place, and book a window seat in advance.
🔹 King Power Duty-Free Shop: 🛍️ Many salespeople at the counters can speak a sentence or two of Chinese. When I went there, there was also a promotion where you could receive a 200 baht voucher, and certain products had an 85% discount.
🔹 Chinatown: It's really crowded, and there are rats running around on the streets. If it's not for the sake of a movie sentiment, it's really not necessary to come here, and you have to be careful of pickpockets.

The most famous four face Buddha in Thailand! Located in One of Bangkok’s Busiest Intersections.
Like the original Hindu Brahma, the Buddha at Erawan Shrine has four faces. Facing the shrine’s entrance, the front face represents career and life. Continuing clockwise, the second is symbolic of relationship and family, the third is for wealth, and the last for wisdom and health. Locals believe that walking around the figure anti-clockwise is only recommended for those who partake in illegal businesses.
There are rules to worship the Buddha. However, whether you are religious, I strongly recommend you to visit and witness this tiny but crowd area.

Temples that I always visit whenever i go Bangkok🙏👍
Before visiting the Four-faced Buddha in Bangkok, you must read this first
1⃣ Remove your shoes and socks to connect with the earth
2⃣ Make the same wish on all four sides. Although the four sides represent different fortunes, when making a wish, make sure to only make one. For example, if you wish for wealth, say on the health side that under the condition of ensuring my health, enhance my fortune to my wealth.
3⃣ Don't be too vague when making a wish, such as hoping to make a fortune this year. Be specific to a thing or a person, such as hoping that my salary can be increased to 20k this year or hoping to be promoted to department manager.
4⃣ Inform when you will fulfill your vow after the wish is fulfilled (usually you must come within a year)
-
The one holding the rosary is health
The one holding the scepter is career
The one holding the gold brick is wealth
The one holding the mirror is love and interpersonal relationships
-
When fulfilling a vow, be sure to buy an even number~ Be sure to fulfill the vow before making a new wish
