Wow, I thought it was a Hollywood movie. Thailand may not be superior to other countries in terms of the beauty of its tourist attractions. But it is better than other countries because it has 'Thai people' who are smiling and friendly. Land of smiles.
Thai people are lovely! Some of the nicest people we've encountered in the world. And the country has stunningly beautiful spots that feel like paradise.
Bangkok is certainly an experience. I can take it in small doses, much as I used to work in London, but after a while there is only so much hustle and bustle I can stand. I agree that the Street Food culture in Thailand is exceptional and I don't know of any other place in the world that comes close. It's interesting and quite telling of the Thai culture, that the food vendors, often each specialise in one type of food, and do it well. It means they aren't really competing against each other, all cooking the same thing, whereas in my home town here in the UK (takeouts not street food granted), there must be a dozen or so pizza places, a dozen Chinese restaurants, a dozen Kebab/burger shops, and so many of the menus are the same, and the food... if you want something decent, you really do have to look hard and know what to order. It's quite a lottery. In contrast, I can't remember having a bad experience from a Thai street food vendor. Quick story, one a few of my trips to Phuket I met the same small group of Americans from Aspen, two of which actually owned several restaurants and so knew their stuff. One night I took a few of them to my favourite food place, which was down a small alley just off Bangla Rd, lined with street food vendors, each with their own seating and tables. The menu was extensive. Hundreds of dishes, many different styles and of course the ubiquitous display of seafood on display on ice, oysters, red snapper, giant prawns, lobster and so on. Having placed out order, one of them popped over to where the chef was preparing the order. He came back and was absolutely astounded saying that everything was being prepped from scratch, nothing pre made, and was blown away. They are very skilled and the food is always top notch. Btw in terms of Thailand and sex tourism, it really is mainly constrained within a few of the really tourist areas, such as Soi Cowboy, Nana, in Bangkok, and places like Pattaya, and Patong, but in reality the rest of the country is very different. Also, and this makes perfect sense when you consider it, that the main consumers of sex are Thais themselves. I applaud your openness in not shying away from the topic and even going to see a show. Things are very different than they used to be 10-15 years ago. The police did crack down significantly on places like Nana. Not to say that it doesn't still go on, but it is significantly reduced.
I think you’re painting a bit of a romantic image of Thailand. As for street food, the whole of SE Asia, be it Malaysia, Singapore, Vietnam, Cambodia, Myanmar, the whole region is streetfood paradise. Bangkok may have the name, as it is the most visited city in the world, but you’ll find it everywhere in SE Asia. And the sex tourism hasn’t diminished at all. It’s everywhere, like you state especially in the mentioned areas, and it’s a thriving business like always and forever. It’s just a fact and part of life in Bangkok’s tourism.
Thanks for your thoughtful response! We appreciate you watching and sharing your stories and feedback. Bangkok is a beautiful, vibrant, and complex place. We love it and can't wait to go back - especially to eat.
😍Bangkok = Chaotic but lively and colorful.🎉 😘Chiang Mai and North Part = Slow life and relaxed atmosphere. ☺I love both places.😻Thank you for sharing, I really liked your video!👍
Excellence in travel videography right here!! Likeability of the presenter is 10/10 I have been to Bangkok 4 times and for some reason this video made it seem like I am going somewhere newer and more exciting when I return there in January. Well done!!👏
Awesome video vlog. The city really comes to life. Their markets are amazing at night. That dish had an awesome lot of cheese with it!!! Thanks for sharing.
@@DotsonaMap it’s a brilliant base for travelling around. Unfortunately I still need to work so I work a month in the Middle East then have a month off in Thailand. It’s a lot better than spending my month off in the cold, wet UK 😂
The production value on this is outstanding. Bravo.....Bravo. Subscribed and this is my first video I have seen. Want to move to Thailand, but I will watch whatever you make.
It's great to hear about your experiences and observations in Thailand, particularly regarding its street food culture, which is indeed exceptional and unique. The specialization of food vendors in Thailand, each excelling in a specific type of cuisine, is a testament to the diversity and quality of the offerings. This approach ensures that you get a consistently high-quality meal regardless of where you choose to eat, making it a much different experience from the more competitive and often repetitive restaurant scene in the UK. Your story about taking Americans to your favorite food place in Phuket highlights the dedication and skill of Thai street food vendors. The fact that they prepare everything from scratch is a testament to their commitment to providing excellent, fresh, and delicious food. You also mentioned the issue of sex tourism in certain tourist areas in Thailand, like Bangkok, Pattaya, and Patong, and the changes that have occurred over the years with police crackdowns and reduced activity. It's important to acknowledge that the situation in Thailand varies widely, and not all areas are affected in the same way. Your insight into the broader context is valuable. Overall, it's clear that you've had a diverse and enriching experience in Thailand, appreciating both its culinary delights and acknowledging the complexities of certain aspects of its tourism industry. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and experiences.
You did a great job of introducing Bangkok and all it has to offer. I have lived here for 15 years now and there is always something new or changing to see. You talked about the sex scene with seemingly no agenda or bias so when I say it was well done, I am not being condescending. Most modern people of your age produce terrible click-bait material and your disarming presentation style, photography and editing are clearly the result of hard work and professionalism. I wish you all the views you deserve for this excellent video.
It’s funny to see a Thailand newbie experiencing it for the first time in what seams like real time almost. 🇹🇭🌶❤️loved the zing ‘why can’t we have nice things in the US Too’ 😂
I was the same when I went to Nepal earlier in the year. I now moan to all my Nepali Gurkha friends why can’t we have the same street food and amazing local food places they have in Nepal 😂👍🇳🇵🇬🇧 Give me South East Asia any day
@@bigradwolf5001 I’m not sure maybe weather or population related on the east coast, but the Thais in California are trying to start up street food culture in Thai town LA. There are a few videos on TH-cam to check out.
Awesome! I very rarely subscribe instantly after watching a video, but I did this time! Love your authenticity, the editing and camerawork shows that they're made a lot of effort, would have loved to see more interviews with Thai people though if possible. But I understand without a translator it's really hard.
The very beautiful lady warrior Ayeon absolutely 💯 loves to go to the resorts an hotels of the great tasty snacks an very fine restaurant 😋 foods of the city, Bangkok Thailand 🇹🇭 a very wonderful place to eat and visit.😋 My great information for today. Have a great fabulous wonderful day.😀
Wow...8 minutes in and I feel like I am watching: the Food Channel meets the Travel Channel, but it is even better than that! Excellent narrating and scenographic video production. ✴✴✴✴✴
Its one of my favourite cities after Tokyo and Taipei, totally agree with you about the street food. Every time Im about to leave Asia for Australia I nearly cry knowing everything will be closed at 8 max.
Thai people love to eat day and night they created night markets to meet the demands. Now it's become touristy places most of labours are from Burma, Laos, Combodia and foods are a little bit taste different than original but still good. Thank you for the nice VDO ❤❤❤
Wat Pho is an old temple south of the Grand Palace. It is also known as the Temple of the Reclining Buddha rebuilt by King Rama III in 1832. The King also decreed that traditional Thai massage and traditional medicine be inscribed on stone tablets to disseminate the knowledge to the general public. The famous Thai spa and massage are believed to originate from such stone inscription. King Rama III was also known as Merchant Prince because when he was still a prince he conducted trade with China and asked the ship captain to bring back stone sculptures such as Chinese deities, mythical beasts as stabilizing balance in the ship's belly. These stone sculptures are now commonly seen at Wat Pho, Wat Arun and the Grand Palace. When President Obama had only one day to tour a Thai temple, US Embassy recommended this temple due to its unique architecture, history and beautiful reclining Buddha. Note all three famous temples: Wat Phra Kaew in the Grand Palace, Wat Pho and Wat Arun, there are two Yaksa Guardians (Hindu/Buddhist giant deity) at the entrance of the temple. Wat Pho's reclining Buddha is not the largest in Thailand. It's the largest in Bangkok or you can say it's the largest enclosed reclining Buddha in Thailand. There are larger reclining Buddhas but they are outdoor, facing elements.
You're shocked by the openness of the "sex trade", but I guess you haven't seen the videos of Seattle, Portland, LA and so many other American cities where block after block (often MILES) of hookers line the streets. It's far more common than you know in the west, you just haven't seen it. At least in Thailand it's all contained in a far smaller area.
Great job, guys! Super cinematic and beautiful video. We never managed to go to a ping pong show while we were there. How was it?! Hahaha. We went to a pretty cool ladyboy show in a proper theatre when we were there! Fun times. 😂
Another great vid 👍 If the hustle & bustle of Bangkok gets too much, check out Lumpini Park. Right near Silom MRT. Huge, peaceful garden with lakes. Can hardly see a single building despite being in the middle of BKK, & it's FULL of dragons! Up to 5 or 6 foot long water monitors
Yes, tuk tuk name comes from its exhaust sound in the old days. Thailand's famous tuk tuk was based on Japanese micro pickup equipped with 2-stroke engine with less than 500cc. It was modified by Thai mechanics to be a utility vehicle, cheap to run, cheap to maintain. In the old days, you could see vendors go to wet market and bought a lot of ingredients and piled them into tuk tuk to their vending site to set up a food stall. Since it was equipped with 2 engines, the exhaust sounds like "tuk tuk". Over the years, the engine is now 4-stroke and run on a small LPG gas tank instead of petrol due to 3 times cheaper price of LPG. So modern tuk tuk no longer sounds like "tuk tuk", but the name sticks. There are even some electric tuk tuks, but still few in number.
Neon light, smell of great food, beautiful country, old tradition, nice culture, kind people. ❤❤❤❤❤ as you said only Thailand.
Don't forget the 2 main things US does not have that this has the go hand-in-hand -- beach weather
And alot of Hot sexy chicks❤
It’s not what you think, live there Long enough and you’ll see
@@johntay3831 what's your experience like?
@@heellickerno one forced you to eat unhealthy food bro jus say you cant bag a thai girl and leave
It's not a video made by ordinary tourists. It's like a professionally made documentary. Everything is perfect.
Thank you for visiting us, Thailand.
You have no idea, all they did was the tourist things.
thais are demanding.
I’ve lived here for 12 years, it’s my favorite city in SEA. I like how balanced your video was in showing what Bangkok has to offer. Nicely done.
I LOVED that staring sequence with the statue that was brilliant!!
We love it too! Was fun to film haha
Nice video! I love Bangkok so much! Can’t wait to visit again soon!
It's the best! So much to see and do.

there is also street pharmacists who will be happy to sell some viagra so you can get some fun also))
thanks for the comment you insoired me to visit thailand thanks and im going to make a video and copy your comment word for wordd thanks
That's why you live in the Wongamat beach. Relaxing retirement beach lifestyle. Bangkok is just for touring every now and then.

CM slow ?? I lived in a city with 5 million people, CM beats it as it beats BKK
Wongamat = Slow, relaxed, great beach lifestyle AND still close to lively and colorful world.
Chaing mai is so much better than dirty Bangkok and 40% cheaper

Greeting from Bangkok, Thank you for sharing my city ❤❤
Thank you so much to promote my country ; your welcome.
I think this is my year for Thailand. Planning and arranging things.
You're shocked by the openness of the "sex trade", but I guess you haven't seen the videos of Seattle, Portland, LA and so many other American cities where block after block (often MILES) of hookers line the streets. It's far more common than you know in the west, you just haven't seen it. At least in Thailand it's all contained in a far smaller area.
Exactly. Them western tourists usually don’t talk about their own vices. Some are honest enough, but not many.
Very Anthony Bourdain like intro 🤣that's not a bad thing, love it!
Will definitely take that as a compliment! Haha
Nice VDO and also beautiful presentator....
Bangkok is full with vibrant and colourful street food 😍
very well done, i like your style
Great job, guys! Super cinematic and beautiful video.
We never managed to go to a ping pong show while we were there. How was it?! Hahaha.
We went to a pretty cool ladyboy show in a proper theatre when we were there! Fun times. 😂
Thank you!!! We wanted to do that too but sadly didn't have time. Thailand and its myriad forms of entertainment haha.
I agree, The night time street food eaten on plastic tables and stools is magic. And a beer from the ice box.
Wow great vlog
Another great vid 👍 If the hustle & bustle of Bangkok gets too much, check out Lumpini Park. Right near Silom MRT. Huge, peaceful garden with lakes. Can hardly see a single building despite being in the middle of BKK, & it's FULL of dragons! Up to 5 or 6 foot long water monitors
I’ve never been to that nightlife area. But tourists love to go there. It seems like that street was created for tourists
Nice content ♥
