Bangkok, Ayutthaya (english)
andi19987, 04:20h
Now I've spent nearly a week travelling and therefore I'm writing my first blog entry.
The first days in Bangkok were interesting but a bit exhausting because I had to get used to the temperature difference of 30 degrees in comparison to the current German weather. At least the city wasn't as bad as Chinese cities with regard to traffic and people huzzling around the streets. It is smaller than the smallest Chinese city I've seen, though.
In Bangkok I have seen a big golden statue of a lying Buddha and a stupa. Then I continued to Ayutthaya, 2 hours in the North, where I have seen some Khmer temples (looking like those you're associating with Cambodia probably) as well as some elephants walking across the street. Furthermore, in a smalller city nearby, I had the chance to get in touch with some rhesus monkeys hanging around on the temple grounds.
Now I am waiting for my check in after having taken a night bus to Chang Mai, quite in the North of the country.
