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.

Now a days. I love and enjoyed watching and learning how Bangkok has changed so much.

One of my most favorite Bangkok guides. It touches all the key sites for first timers and novices and with a very natural flow (instead of skipping from one site to another). Appreciate you for putting this together 😎 I’ll definitely do the 7th floor on ICONSIAM ☕️

Joe, I have just returned from Thailand, and your tips and tricks on how to explore Bangkok have been instrumental! Thanks a lot for sharing!

Bangkok is always amazing – no matter how often you visit, there’s always something new.

[brothersman]

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

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.

We were in Bangkok and watched your video before our trip and was definitely very helpful. Did so many of the recommended sights and the experience was fantastic! We were lucky to have a nice, hot and humid weather the whole time we were in Bangkok. Thanks for the tips and information provided. Your video is very helpful.

Excellent information! This is really helpful for our upcoming trip to Thailand. I like how you clearly point out where everything is on the public transportation system, and how easy it is to get to each place. I'm really excited to see that retro style market! :)
