Perception of Thailand

The two things that come to my mind about Thailand are definitely the Buddhist temples and monks as well as its flea markets. All year round, this largest urban city in Thailand attracts people from all over the world seeking for breath-taking beaches and authentic Thai cuisines. In recent years, Bangkok has successfully established its position as a favourite shopping destination in Southeast Asia. Known as the Shopping Paradise, millions of people from neighbouring countries are attracted to Bangkok for a short getaway enjoying bargain shopping at local flea markets such as Chatuchak market or luxury shopping at its major shopping malls such as Siam Paragon, Peninsula and Oriental Plaza. Other than the shopaholics, many religious people are also attracted to the beautiful Buddhist temples in the country.
