Before you start shaking that table, you should know that cambodians. burmese, laotians, vietnamese who merely crossed the border to feed are counted as tourists and they make up over more than 40% of the total figure, then next is chindia, which accounts for another over 30%... The actual figure of legit tourist is very depressing. Do your own research, see for yourself. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or a temple? Guess they come to see the madness down the roads, or the sexy girls who are not prostitutes but pingpongball artists.? There's nothing in BKK which is so beautifull i would recommend to others. There are no tourist attractions like Disney or Seaworld or good museums/shows/parks...It's too hot, dirty, overcrowded, dangerous, full of scams/traps...and the nice neighbourhoods are closed for strangers so they can only see the filthy streets, can't even walk around on the sidewalks safely. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disney or sea world?? Bangkok is so disconnected from that world I'm shocked anybody could use it in the same sentence. Bangkok is still mysterious and exotic to the west especially. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes well maybe i got used to it...tourists like to see the insects being sold, strange stuff in chinatown, copycopy goods, tuktuk's, temples, longtail boats. But it's all for young tourists, older ones prefer the beaches and stay in the resort. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Use your brain don't be lazy and look up the mastercard stats right here on TV The average tourist spends 5 days in bangkok before moving on. That's what drives bangkok to the top of the world rankings It's seems to upset the jungle boys watching their grass grow. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would you please convince the many guys in line ahead of me at CW and the guys at Big Dogs Nana to go to Seaworld. I would like to get a quick visa extension of stay and a good seat with a beer to watch the Nana professionals go to work. ???? Thank you. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
