[Bangkok] 4 days of the classic course

2024/6/13-6/16

Day 1
Departed at 9:15 on AirAsia from Narita 🛫
I think we arrived at the destination around 15:00?

💕Hotel: Aloft Bangkok Sukhumvit 11
📍Address: 35 Soi Sukhumvit 11, Khlong Toei Nuea, Watthana, Bangkok 10110 Thailand
💰Price: 40,500 points for 3 nights
※I honestly regret using my points here lol

After checking in
To the Platinum Fashion Mall I wanted to go to!
We headed there by motorbike taxi.

It's so big that you can't go back, so if you see any clothes you want, I recommend you make an immediate decision on the spot.
By the way! Be careful because only cash is accepted⚠️

I was hungry, so I ate at the food court in Platinum Shopping Mall and called it a day.

Day 2
I got up early in the morning and headed to a certain place~🏝️

Yes! My favorite remote island
💡Koh Lan💡

It's been 10 years since I last visited Bangkok, so I didn't know much about the traffic situation, so I pre-registered for all the shuttle boat tours.

I took plenty of motion sickness medicine

After 20-30 minutes of being shaken by the violently swaying speed jet

I arrived at Tawaen Pier from Pattaya

Oh, I also did parasailing and snorkeling on the way🤿

The first thing I did after arriving was eat
💕Store name: Mare Beachbar&Restaurant Kohlarn
📍Address: 195 Bang Lamung District, Chon Buri 20150 Thailand
💰Average price: Includes day trip to Koh Lan

I was excited to play on the beach afterwards, but...

I got exhausted from the heat, so I lay down on the beach and spent 2 hours drinking a bottle of Smirnoff, and before I knew it, it was time to go home lol

Then, I had some trouble on the way back. Thailand's biggest traffic jams

On the way back to Sukhumvit

The shuttle car got hit from behind🚗

Since we were going through a tour company

I asked them to arrange a taxi for us

I got safely back to the hotel by taxi.

(I was worried because the driver tried to get me to talk to a customer who was speaking English over the phone even though I didn't understand or speak English)

I was exhausted from the heat so I slept a little

Tonight I went to the night market🌉

💕: Jodh Fairs Night Market

📍Address: 15 Rama IX Rd, Huai Khwang, Bangkok 10310 Thailand

💰Average price: Cash only (forgot)

I can't eat spicy food so I ordered "non-spicy"

And here I had trouble again.

The heat was so bad I couldn't eat my food lol

I got takeout and headed home quietly

It was too spicy.

Day 3
I was planning to meet up with a Japanese friend who was arriving in the afternoon🥰

However, I was exhausted from the heat and almost died, so I spent the morning relaxing at the hotel.

We met up and went to the rooftop bar we wanted to go to🍸

💕: Akara Sky Hanuman Bangkok

📍Address: 548 One City Centre, 58fl.-61fl, Phloen Chit Rd, Lumphini, Pathum Wan, Bangkok 10330 Thailand

💰Price: 2 drinks and 2 food items for about 3-5,000 yen

Everything is so cute〜〜🥰

To eat Kara's

Moo Gat.

(I just checked and it was closed)

Finally, I went home for a massage.

Because the next day...

Day 4
The day to go to Pink Ganesha and Wat Paknam, photogenic spots!

This is also a long way to go on your own, so I booked a tour in advance.

It's so hot! The temperature felt like 40 degrees 🥵

Finished in the morning, ate dinner, returned to the hotel, changed to late check-out, took a shower, and headed to the airport ✈️

What I learned this time was
🔥 Be sure to take precautions against the heat!

It would be a good idea to bring some powdered Pocari with you.
In fact, if I hadn't brought any powdered Pocari, it would have been over.

It was a relaxed solo trip, so next time I'd like to go around some stylish cafes and restaurants and do some shopping.
