2. Guide map of Siam Museum

Everyone is recommending popular attractions, so I recommend a smaller museum! This museum is the Siam Museum, an interactive history museum near the Grand Palace.

Those who have seen the little thing of first love will never forget the place where a photo exhibition was held with the theme of Old A Liang. Here it is.

Siam Museum is located near Daejeon Pier, not far from the Grand Palace and the Reclining Buddha Temple. The main museum is a neoclassical building, built in Rama in the 6th century. Goose-yellow exterior walls and slightly European-style buildings stand out in the scorching sun.

The Siam Museum, formerly known as the Thai Ministry of Commerce, has been transformed into an interactive history museum. In order to help the Thai people understand their national and ethnic orientation, this museum has changed the monotonous way of displaying exhibits in the past history museum, and instead used a variety of high-tech, multimedia and interactive games to present Thailand's past, present and future. From ancient times, to the competition between Thai dynasties, and then to the introduction of modern western culture into Thailand, this museum shows the life and beliefs of modern Thais.

You need to buy a ticket on the first floor to enter the museum, adult 100 baht. When you buy a ticket, you will get a huge guidebook with a plan of the whole museum, a guide and various exquisite exhibits. Although most of them are in Thai and some English, you can take them back as souvenirs!

There is a Chinese translator next to the ticket office. You can change your passport for free and return it after the visit. The order of visiting the museum is to go to the third floor first and then to the second floor. The first floor is mainly a ticket office and a coffee shop. The exhibition halls are numbered with Arabic numerals, and you can enter different exhibition halls. Just press the corresponding serial number on the digital translator to listen to the detailed introduction of each exhibition hall, which is very convenient.

The exhibition hall on the third floor mainly introduces the history of Thailand, including the country, religion and king. These three parts are also the three most important aspects of life in Thailand.

This multimedia exhibition hall vividly shows the whole history of Thailand with a device I have never seen before (static pictures can be displayed or not, and you are strongly recommended to see them! )

There is also an important exhibition hall on the third floor, called Taiwei. The main exhibit in this exhibition hall is the throne of the king. The whole throne is golden, decorated with all kinds of precious stones, very gorgeous. Because, in the eyes of Thais, the king is like Indra of Mount Sumi, the center of the whole universe.

At the entrance of the exhibition hall on the second floor is a huge statue of the fat goddess. There are some interesting items on display around the goddess, such as DuDu driver's vest, seasoning jar, bagged coke and even instant noodles. These items can only be seen in Thailand, where people still use life frequently.

For example, the seasoning jar below, I had breakfast at a stall near the hotel that morning, and the same thing was on the table.

Seasoning pot

Plastic portable coffee cup

All kinds of instant noodles

After reading the theme of religion, we found that we always thought that Thailand was a country with pure Buddhist beliefs. In fact, what Thais believe in is not pure Indian Buddhism, but a fusion of local animism and Brahmanism in Thailand.

Compared with the National Museum, Grand Palace and other popular attractions, Siam Museum can be regarded as an unpopular attraction. During the visit, we didn't-I didn't meet any foreigners, mostly Thai locals, not many people. So we can listen to the explanation quietly, and at the same time, we can patiently look at every exhibit and play every interactive game.

Museum appearance

If you travel to Bangkok, you must not miss this small museum. Don't choose to close on Monday!

Hello, I'm-I'm glad to answer your questions.

1. Douste Zoo This is Bangkok Zoo. The ticket seems to be 100 baht, and there are many animals that can't be seen in China, such as tapirs. You can also get close to giraffes, hippos, cows, sheep and horses and touch the giraffe's head! Just like the safari park in China.

2. The floating market Anpawa, less than two hours' drive from Bangkok, is recognized by travelers as the most interesting floating market, better than those famous night markets in Bangkok. There is also a Meigong Railway Market next to Anwar. You can also go shopping together.

3. seafood! A crab with paws as big as my hand in Siam only needs 200 yuan RMB! It is one third of the domestic price, which is highly recommended.

4. Food, of course, many snacks and foods should also be recommended. You can go to Taiwan Province People's Tourism Forum. There are many posts recommending authentic Bangkok cuisine. For example, there was a famous pig, who robbed rice for only 10, and we both ate 40 yuan until we died.

5. Various temples and magnificent palaces. I once saw an Indian temple in Bangkok. It's beautiful. I have never been to a paid temple or a grand palace. Too free. There are temples everywhere in Bangkok. It's not necessary.

6. There are many bars near the mountain road, where foreign tourists gather. In addition, there are many bars in Xilong.

7. Songkran Festival Bangkok is very suitable for Songkran Festival, because the weather here is hot and there are many people, so it is not easy to get sick. Know that many people pour ice water! The water-sprinkling festival lasts from April 13 to April 15.

8. Museums There are many museums in Bangkok, and the facilities are quite good. I have been to Siam Museum, and I can get a good understanding of the history of Thailand.

I hope it helps you!

Day 1 3. Guide map of Siam Museum

, visit Siem Reap. Then go to Angkor Wat the next day; Visit the temple on the third day and return in the afternoon.

Five-day tour of Siem Reap and Phnom Penh

I went to Siem Reap and Angkor Wat two days ago to feel the cultural heritage of Angkor, and then flew to the capital Phnom Penh on the third day. Phnom Penh is also called Paris of the East. In Phnom Penh, you can visit the Palace and the National Museum. If you like natural scenery, you can visit Wangu Lake. In addition, WatPhnom and Wunalong Temple are also places to consider. On the fifth day, you can consider returning.

Five-day tour of Siem Reap, Sihanoukville and Gaolong Island

Two days ago, I went to Siem Reap and Angkor Wat. On the third day, I went to Sihanoukville, Gaolong Island and Gaolong Salem Island. Sihanoukville has Sokka Beach, Independence Beach and Victory Beach, all of which are good. Gaolong Island is a place with few people and beautiful scenery. Its development is not very good, so it retains more of its natural charm and its consumption is relatively low. Very recommended place. Return on the fifth day.

Seven-day tour

If you travel for seven days, you can have a panoramic view of Siem Reap, Angkor Wat, Phnom Penh and Sihanoukville.

Introduction of main scenic spots

1. Angkor Wat

In Cambodia, more people come to see Angkor Wat, which is located 5.5 kilometers north of Siem Reap and is the largest temple in the world. Of course, it may take at least four or five days to see the temples here one by one. So we basically look at some major parts of the scenic spots to feel the historical charm of Angkor Wat.

Better places are Angkor Wat, Bayang Temple, Tapulun Temple, Chajiao Temple, and you can also see the Women's Palace, the Royal Bathroom, Longpanchi, the Mussel Valley and other places.

According to the different days of the tour, the ticket price of Angkor Wat is different, with a one-day ticket of 37 dollars and a three-day ticket of 62 dollars.

You can go early in the morning or rent a car, because there will be dust on the road, which may be convenient and clean. The architecture of Angkor Wat is divided into buildings, small buildings and outer buildings. If it is an outside building, it is also recommended to charter a car.

2. Phnom Penh

As the capital of Cambodia, it is also a place worth visiting. In the city center, you can visit the Royal Palace in Phnom Penh and some memorial halls, including the National Museum.

There are many memorial halls in memory of the victims of the disaster. If you think you are a person who likes natural scenery, you may not need to go to these memorial halls.

3. Sihanoukville

You can visit the beach here. Sihanoukville is a good port city in Cambodia, and you can also taste cheap seafood.

In addition, many people read some comments on the Internet, only to find that Gaolong Island and Gao Long Salem Island are also good places. Not many people go to China, but there are many tourists from Europe and America.

There are fewer people in Gaoshaleng Island, and the beach will be cleaner. There are also some holiday homes on the island, and the price of $50 may be worth it for many people.

Precautions for American tourism in Cambodia

1. visa

There are two forms, one is electronic signature, the other is landing visa, valid for 30 days.

Phnom Penh Airport, Siem Reap Airport, Zhan Yan, Pobe and Bavette ports accept electronic signatures. E-visa requires you to fill in relevant information online in advance, but after entering Cambodia, you don't have to wait in line like a visa on arrival, which is more convenient. The reference fee for electronic signature is $37.

Electronic application website: https://www.evisa.gov.kh/

Visa on arrival is also possible. Suitable for temporary business trips, or business trips in an emergency. Of course, the visa on arrival needs to be queued, but it won't take long to get it. You need to provide a 4x6cm photo (white background) and a round-trip air ticket, which costs 30 dollars. In fact, it is not much different from the cost of electronic signature.

2. Currency

Besides visas, another issue that needs our attention is currency. Cambodia can use US dollars and Cambodian riel, and the frequency of using US dollars may be higher. Another thing to note is that you need to bring more cash, and you can't swipe your card in many places.

3. Network

Good telecom operators in Cambodia are smart and can buy at the airport or online in advance.

4. Language

Mainly English and Khmer.

5. Best travel time

The best time to travel in Cambodia is from 65438+February to 65438+1October. Relax a little, and it will be 1 1 in April. However, in April, the weather may be hot, which may be a bit unsuitable for travel. February 65438-February 65438+1October, the climate is comfortable and there is not much rain. It's good to go in the meantime.

transport

There are many places in China that can fly directly to Phnom Penh. For example, Guangzhou, Shanghai, Shenzhen and Hong Kong can fly directly to Phnom Penh, while Beijing and Chongqing need to change planes. The time from Shanghai to Phnom Penh is about 4 hours.

Between domestic cities in Cambodia, you can also choose to fly. Besides Phnom Penh, Siem Reap is also a popular tourist city. It takes about 40 minutes to fly from Phnom Penh to Siem Reap, and you can also visit Angkor Wat.

Step 7 live

There are many hotels and homestays in Phnom Penh and Siem Reap, and there are many choices. The price of B&B is around RMB in 200 yuan, so you can live in a similar place.

8. Delicious food

There are many delicious foods in Cambodia, including Amoke, fish in sour soup, Khmer curry, sweet and sour Khmer beef salad, pork chop rice, Cambodian hot pot and so on.

8. Folklore is based on religion.

97% people in Cambodia believe in Buddhism, of which 2% believe in Islam and a few believe in Christianity. Public security is relatively good in most parts of the country. In addition, when traveling and using languages, we should also pay attention to ethnic and religious beliefs to avoid unnecessary disputes.

4. Siem Reap Travel Raiders Free Travel Raiders

At present, the longest in the world is a pair of ivory from eastern Congo (excluding early history). Its right tooth is 3.5 meters long, its left tooth is 3.35 meters long and its weight is 133 kg.

The ivory originally belonged to King Fu You of Ethiopia. Later, the king gave him to a European political official and soon auctioned him in London. Roland Ward Co., Ltd. purchased this pair of ivory and presented it to the National Animal Head and Horn Collection Association of new york Association on 1907.

A pair of ivory collected by Siam National Museum in Bangkok is the best of Asian species, with the left and right teeth length of 3.00 meters and 2.74 meters respectively.

5. Siam Museum Thailand Museum

I like Krabi very much and want to go again. We went to Krabi and went straight to Randa Island. Because the last trip was tight, I chose to go to the island directly, get off the plane at Krabi, and booked the bus to the island directly on Taobao. About an hour later, I arrived at Randa Island.

When we arrived at the hotel, we rented a motorcycle directly in front of the hotel. The first thing to do is to eat. Because we were so hungry, we drove a rented motorcycle and went to a restaurant nearby with a better environment and a seaside. In the morning, we will go swimming at the seaside, because the water in Landa Island is cleaner than that in Krabi, which is why we choose to go to the island directly.

We have another day at sea. You can book directly at the front desk of the hotel or at Taobao boss. The car will pick you up directly at the entrance of the hotel, which is very convenient. The car will pick us up in the morning, and then we will go snorkeling in the nearby waters by spaceship and have dinner. Swimming is very interesting and the water is very clear and beautiful.

For the next few days, we just went swimming, sunbathed and sat in the hotel restaurant for breakfast every day. Anyway, did you have a leisurely holiday? I think this is a good place to spend a holiday at home.

If you go to Bangkok for a self-help tour, I suggest you sign up for a one-day tour, because in this case, you can be accompanied. Also, I can help you go to Bangkok and punch in several scenic spots a day. After all, if you go by yourself, even if you take a taxi or take a bus, I think it is very expensive. If my husband and I go to Bangkok in the morning, we can choose freely. I didn't go to many scenic spots because I didn't. We went to the Four Faces Buddha and saw the Grand Palace. Went to the art market and punched in at the train night market.

Then this year, my son and I got married and had children. Many people who like menstruation miss their mothers. So this year, we just came back from road trip. Bangkok is famous for traffic jams, so we arranged most of our trips in Pattaya and Bangkok. We just punched in the old city 72 and the water market, but we won't go unless there is something else, because the time is a little tight this time.

If we go to Krabi, it was our trip a few years ago, so the photos look a little lost, so here are only my photos in Pattaya and Bangkok.
