BANGKOK
THE CITY OF ANGELS
Thailand's capital and gateway city is BANGKOK. Founded
in 1782 by King Rama I and located on the banks of
the Chao Phraya River, a few kilometres upstream from
its outflow into the Gulf of Siam,Bangkok sprawls
across a flat plain. It is the capital in every sense
of the word. It is where the Royal Family resides,
it is also the seat of government and administration,
and it is the focal point for virtually all major
industrial, commercial and financial activities. It
is the country's main port and home to one tenth of
the Kingdom's population.
"Krung Thep" translates as "city of
Angles" and is the first in the whole string
of illustrious titles that properly define the place
and, incidentally, earn a listing in the Guinness
Book of Records as the world's longest place name.
To the Thais, Bangkok is always Krung Thep, the spiritual
and symbolics and as well as the physical heart of
the nation. Initial impressions are of a modern, dynamic
metropolis bustling with businesses. The skyline is
dominated by thrusting highrise buildings, luxury
hotels, department stores and shopping malls. |
