My travel story in Bangkok I tripped to Bangkok this summer with my family for 7 days and 9 nights. Actually, four days were the exact duration time in Bangkok and the last of days, we went to Pattaya. Our first visiting place in Bangkok was the " Grand Palace". We took BTS and got off at the Saphan Taksin station. From there, we had to take water bus such as boat or ferry running on Chaophraya river to go to the palace. According to the tour guide book for Bankok I borrowed from a library, that's one of the ways of going there. Of course, you can take taxi, especially considering the fact that Bangkok's taxi fare is fairly cheap but I don't think that's a good idea because of the heavy traffic in Bangkok. I know this because I exprienced the horrible traffic jam myself while I stayed there. I had to spend over three hours in taxi to go some place where it would take less than 30 or 40 minutes if I had taken bts or water bus instead. Water bus terminal wasn't that far from BTS station. It was only five minutes walking distance. When I got there, I spotted a tourist information desk So I went and asked about which water bus we should take to go to the palace. She only said "100 baht for a person" pointing a boat parked nearby. So we purchased four tickets for 400 baht and aboarded that boat with assissting from a man looking like a crewman. The gap between the boat and the land we stand was wide and the boat was moving a little bit precariously by water. I was instantly worried my daughter's tiny feet might fall into the gab or something. So I was thankful when he held out his hand to assisst us to aboard the boat. But to my dismay, my appreciation stopped here. Later, I found out that there was much cheaper option and it was only 15 baht per person. I could have saved a lot of money here!!!! For the more, the boat didn't depart right away and kept postponing departure whenever new customer came.
