Best weekend market ever! The Chatuchak Market in Bangkok

We have seen a couple of weekend Markets but none beats the Chatuchak Market in Bangkok! It is just humongous!!! you can find anything there! clothes, shoes, strange foods, animals, art and the list goes on and on and on!!! 


We have to say we were overwhelmed by the size of this market! We probably only saw 50% of the market! 



We didn´t get a map of the market... but it might be worth it! 





There was this section fully of trendy shops! Juana could easily spent a couple of hours there! 





There was a lot as well of second hand shops like this t-shirt place,





A very colorful seller,





Super cute little monks,





some interesting snacks,




here you could get a drink and a show :)



You can get as well some fresh sea food,



yummy desserts!!! 


cuteness overloaddddddddddddd,



you could get your costume made flip flops,




Sightseeing in Bangkok!

A must see in Bangkok is the Grand Palace! Is truly majestic, 







It is just impressive the size of some of their statues! and the colorful details!





Next sight! Impressive Temple of the Reclining Buddha!





Not only is the reclining Buddha impressive but the temple surrounding it is quite amazing,





The way to end the day! Having dinner and seeing an incredible sunset and the Wat Arun temple! 





yummy dinner,




After a long bus trip we finally arrive in BANGKOK!

From Siem Reap in Cambodia e took a bus to Bangkok! This trip took ages! specially crossing the border... there was soooo many tourists and the imigration officials took their time double checking everything in the passport! But we made it! We left around 8AM and arrived around 9PM! :P 

Here is how packet our bus was!



After crossing the Thai border we were transferred to this micro mini bus.. that had a very interesting banner ehehehhehe, 





We arrived!!!! and we had the best room ever waiting for us :)))





To top it up we had some yummy welcome Thai sweets :) 





Time to explore Bangkok!!! The first thing that strikes you is all the colors!! second one.... SO MANY shopping Malls!!! 





There is even car stands inside the shopping malls!!! and we thought we had seen it all!





Antonio looking very puzzled at this humongous plan of the Platinum shopping mall,





That is the way to shop in Bangkok! take a trolley with you :)))





I have to say that Bangkok was a shopping temptation!!!!!! (Juana)





Sandals madness!!!



We went to check out the the infamous backpackers area in Bangkok:  khao san road we were very glad we didn´t book a place there!!!





You could get there your student card and even your Oxford diploma! all in one place :P
