Thailand's romanization started more than 100 years ago during King Rama VI who was educated in English boarding school for several years when he was till a prince. The system was later standardized by Royal Society of Thailand and all official road signs/places adopt this system. Roman alphabets are not confined only to English/American languages. Almost all European languages adopt Roman alphabets as their main writing system except Greece and Russia. Some non-European countries also do likewise including Vietnam, Malaysia, Singapore and Indonesia. Even though most non-European countries have their own native writing system, they still adopt romanization to help foreigners recognize and pronounce road/place names including Thailand, China (pinyin) and Japan (romaji). Westerners or those who learn English as a second language must accept the fact that those romanized words are not necessarily pronounced like English/American common pronunciation. It is easy to adapt once you know how the native pronounce it. In Thailand, "PH" is pronounced aspirated P (people) and the most well-known is "Phuket" while "P" is pronounced non-aspirated P (papa). "KH" is pronounced like "King" such as "Ramkhamhaeng" while "K" is pronounced like "Gong" such as "Krungthep". "TH" is pronounced aspirated T such as "Take" and the most well-known is "Thai" while T is pronounced non-aspirated T "one ton", the most well-known is "tuk tuk". "CH" is pronounced as "J" (jar) such as Chatuchak. It can also be pronounced as "CH" (chat) such as Chang beer.
Once again I remain impressed with you ability to educate us! Really; I sincerely mean that. Thank you 🙏
Great video. Currently in Bangkok and did a few things you suggested. This video was by far the most informative of all the ‘things to do in Bangkok’ videos
Your kind words mean alot to me and I thank you so much! The video was quite a bit of work to put together; but comments like yours make it worthwhile! 🙏🙏🙏. Tonight I will upload how to visit Wat Saket and Jim Thompson by water taxi- hope you check out👍. Please forward to friends or share on social media 🙏🙏🙏
Cambodia also Best destination to visit
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 (Hindu/Buddhist giant deity) Guardians at the entrance of the temple.
Because of your amazing contribution to this post; I will forever be reminded about the origin of Thai massage as it relates to these temples! You have inspired me to search for these tablets on my next week temple visit. Thanks again for your sincere contribution to this video. Your dedication and knowledge is truly appreciated 🙏🙏🙏
I absolutely appreciate you for sharing all of the beautiful places in Bangkok. I myself was born in Bangkok and have not been back since More than fifty years even My home towns the khlong samsam makkasan looks different
Now a days. I love and enjoyed watching and learning how Bangkok has changed so much.
I hope you can return for a visit soon the beautiful Thailand 🇹🇭! Thanks for your kind comments! I really appreciate it! 🙏🙏🙏
Bangkok is an old name since Ayutthaya was the capital of Siam. The exact history is unknown but there are several speculations. From Thai sources, it was believed that the area around the grand palace was full of Makok trees and thus when people settled there, it was called Bangmakok community. Another speculation was the Chao Phraya river at that area was so curved and bended creating a few islands, thus it was called Bangkoh (bang=community, koh=island). Later an Ayutthaya king decreed a straight canal be built to bypass the bended river section to shorten the distance. With years gone by the canal was naturally enlarged due to easier flow and became the present section of Chao Phraya river while the bended curve of the old section becomes 2 canals, Bangkoknoi and Bangkokyai on the Thonburi side. In fact, Wat Arun was originally named Wat Bangmakok before King Taksin (then Ayutthaya official) led some troops to escape the Burmese siege of Ayutthaya and arrived at Wat Bangkmakok at dawn, thus the temple was renamed Wat Arun (Temple of Dawn). With Thai tendency to shorten names when time gone by, Bangmakok was later shortened to Bangkok.
In western maps and documents, Bangkok was written in various ways such as Bancoc, Bancok, Banckok, Bankoc, Banckock, Bangok, Bancocq, Bancock. The present "Bangkok" spelling was used by French Catholic chief priest in Siam who wrote to Paris using such spelling. When King Rama IV wrote to western powers in English, "Bangkok" was the spelling he used. Since then "Bangkok" is the official "Latin" spelling of the Thai capital.
Here is the official full name of Bangkok.
Krungthep Mahanakorn Amorn Rattanakosin Mahintra Yuttaya Mahadilokpop Noparat Burirom Udom Rachnivet Mahasathan Amornpimarn Avartarnsathit Sakkatiya Witsanukamprasit
Here is my rough translation. Bangkok Metropolis, the royal capital of Ratanakosin dynasty following Ayutthaya dynasty, a grand palace resided by God King.
But most Thais just call short form as "Krungthep", land of deity.
I am impressed with your level of knowledge about Bangkok! It is ironic just last week I asked a Thai the meaning and origin of the name “Bangkok”? You have truly helped us all learn more about the city we all love so much! Thank you 🙏 so much! I am so happy and grateful to have you as a contributor to this video. 🙏🙏🙏
This is an amazing video, easy to see, easy to follow and I am taking a lot of notes for our upcoming family trip to Bangkok !
Thank you so much and greetings from Portugal 🙂
I really appreciate your kind comments! And Portugal is on my bucket list! I will bug you for travel tips 😂- hope you also check out some of my other Bangkok videos?
Bangkok has rightfully earned its reputation as the most visited city in the world. With an estimated 22.78 million visitors in 2023, it's no wonder that travelers from all corners of the globe flock to this enchanting city.
No Doubt Bangkok is enchanting!! Amazingly exciting city to enjoy! Glad you liked the video!

Thanks so much for your kind comments 🙏🙏🙏
Bangkok's Grand Palace was built in the style of Ayutthaya Grand Palace with a royal temple inside reserved only for the King and relatives to hold Buddhist ceremony. Since the temple is in the Grand Palace there is no monk living in the temple. It is only the functional temple in Thailand that has no monk resides in. Monks from temples nearby are usually invited when the King performs Buddhist ceremony. It is a tradition that any novice who passes the highest Pali Grade 9 language proficiency will be royally patronaged and ordained into monkhood in this Emerald Buddha temple. Pali is the language spoken during the Buddha's era. Buddhist Dharma was originally transmitted by Pali oral tradition (still practiced even today when monks chant Pali sutra every morning and evening) but later transcribed into Pali alphabets, similar to Sanskrit which is the main language of Hinduism. There is a nationwide exam conducted annually to assess Pali proficiency and few novices/monks pass Grade 9 language each year, normally fewer than 10. So you can imagine how hard it is.
At the Grand Palace, you can see Garudas (mythical flying deity) grab Nagas (mythical serpent-like deity living underworld). They are sworn mortal enemies in Hindu and Buddhist legends. However, both are God Vishnu's mounts. When travelling, God Vishnu mounts on Garuda. When resting in the sea, God Vishnu lays on bed transformed from Naga's body. Garuda is a sacred deity in Thailand and Indonesia. Thus Indonesia National Airlines is "Garuda" while Thailand's official emblem is Garuda which is affixed in front of official paper and shown on Royal Announcements on Thai TVs. Naga is sacred deity in Thailand and Laos as protector of the Lord Buddha. Temples in the Thailand's North and Laos often feature 2 Nagas at the front leading the steps into the temple. Standalone Naga is featured prominently along Mekong River on both sides of Thailand and Laos as well.
Here is the full name of Bangkok.

Thanks for the artist house info. I was in the area to see the giant buddha and had no idea about the artist house.

Awesome tips.
I have been to Bangkok twice and it is an amazing city. I would also add Lumphini Park and maybe go to sky deck of King Power Mahanakhon building. Also worth doing a day trip to Ayutthaya from Bangkok too. Asiatique Riverfront at night is very nice too
Thanks for your kind comments 🙏. And your input is spot on and also will be in some upcoming videos! Hope you enjoy some of my other adventures? Headed to Philippines for a few weeks

Where can we take the boat from to pass by Wat Paknam?
Thanks!
Can do a private canal tour through “hidden Bangkok”. Or just show up at the pier at Saphan Taksin and chat with the long tail boats waiting there for tourists seeking private tour
Do they have guide or if you know of a guide that could show us this tour when we visit Bangkok? Well done Vlog!❤
I am only familiar with this tour guide at JJ Adventures who I know does sincere quality travel guide planning www.jj-adventures.online/contact-4
you nailed it Mate! I've been to Bangkok many times and I knew most of the places you mentioned but even to me there was something new to eplore. It's also great to see how a rapidly expanding public transport makes those places more accessible than in the past.
So nice to receive your kind comments! Thank you 🙏 so much! - Joe
This is beautiful. Are you still in Bangkok?
Glad you enjoyed! I just returned back to Bangkok from Palawan Philippines 🇵🇭
I am in Bangkok. Looking a guide
Thank you for the info. Can you see Wat Paknam Phasi Charoen from Chao Phraya River ferry?
I am not sure you can see Wat Paknam from Chao Phraya? I am certain you can see with a canal tour near the Artist house
pls share what the BTS map you used in video - it is so informative 😊
Glad you enjoy! You can Google Bangkok BTS map.
I tried but I couldn’t find any with the detailed info as found as the one used in the video - perhaps you can share the weblink - thanks
Please be safe
Bangkok is a very safe city! 👌👍
As for going to Mahanakhon Building, unfortunately you cannot go up to the rooftop to admire the view due to the weather. There is also a skywalk up there where you can take photos from a bird's eye view.
I was on the skywalk just today… fully open

Hi Joe .. just wondering if you could recommend a hotel to stay in Bangkok as we are going on a cruise and have an overnight so maybe easier to spend the night dental rush back to the cruise port, would love to do what you recommended in this video .. thanks, Kieran
Ironically my first night in Bangkok was exactly same! A one nighter while on a cruise ship back in 2017- check out this video- it will cure your request 👍th-cam.com/video/tcoEWPnr7U0/w-d-xo.htmlsi=ALDPJ6eAuzZ5wYVq
Hello! I'm actually going to visit Thailand soon. I was actually hoping to eventually move and live there eventually if I liked it. If you don't mind me asking, do you have citizenship in Thailand? If so, what did you do to earn it, what might you suggest that I do when working towards acquiring citizenship, myself? Also, thank you for this video!!
I am not a visa expert, but I can tell you I don’t know of any expats who got citizenship. Rather get long term visas- if you are over 50 you can apply for retirement visa. Or purchase an Elite visa at any age. There are other channels that focus on visas- glad you enjoy the video 🙏
wow i remembered i only payed 20 bht for a visit to wat saket. but it has been a while ago
Thai people still enjoy free as they should👍. And Foreigners pay 100thb which is a bargain! Wow! 20thb 😳. Must have been a while ago😂
PLEASE ....explain ...about safety ....in hotel , and in street , thanks
Safety? Not sure I completely understand? But if it helps, Bangkok is the safest city crimewise I have ever lived in. The most dangerous thing I face everyday is uneven sidewalks 😂. - Joe

Somebody told me to try an authentic "soapy massage" as a must do in Bangkok. Any thoughts or recommendations?
😂. I dunno 🤷♂️, But in Bangkok your vibe will find your tribe! - We have many many really good professional Thai massage at amazingly inexpensive prices! “Soapy” sounds like what you might find at Nana or Soi Cowboy area😂. Good luck!
Wat Pho is Thailand's first university.

Which is the exact location shown at 3:21 in this video.

Hello 👋
