Asia and the truth was another world, in all poles. To begin with - I was very sweaty. Even Shoed sneakers and put it in a suitcase jacket did not help. Did not help and shorts Kroksi! It's very, very hot. About the same as a cold in Moscow. Local life is different from ours very much. Look - the same sky, grass, asphalt, concrete and cars. A little deeper - and you see that even the usual things we are used differently. Today - prefabricated story about how I was getting to Thailand via Hong Kong, and as a bit of a walk around Bangkok.
1. Circuitous route through China was chosen for a reason. On the way back I will have a long transfer to Gonkoge, and I can walk around the city. There for a long time I want. 2. Hong Kong Airport is lovely about it can compose songs! Everywhere there is free high speed internet, so I inherit in Instagrame . Ten hours from Moscow to Hong Kong, two - transplant, and then another three to Bangkok, the aircraft, which flies to Singapore and make a short stop in Thailand. Almost overslept. Go to passport control, and then discrimination: the line for local citizens (which is fine), all for the Asians, and one (of course, the longest) for all others. But all is not so terrible and is traversed in 15 minutes. No questions asked, slap a stamp and put the date of departure, for the Russians - within 30 days. And stapler figachat piece of the migration card to the page of the passport. Heat felt very strongly. Although air conditioners work, once it is clear what will happen in the street. So wait in line is not so sad. 3. How to get from the airport to the hotel? You can go by taxi, say - cheap. But once I decided to deal with the local life, by taxi - it's unsportsmanlike. Went to the hotel by train. Straight from the airport goes something like our UFA, but costs 30 rubles and makes stops. I bought a chip that, when you enter the station must not omit, and attach. When leaving a token is "eaten up" by the turnstile. 4. The train is beautiful! He walks down the street, where the temperature is 35. And inside is cool. The doors to the cab driver did not lock. And the cars have outlets! 5. Go all four stations, but humus very long, from the airport to the hotel about 30 minutes. But it turned out faster than a taxi, and at least 10 times cheaper. 6. The first thing that catches your eye - excellent roads, modern subway stations and so on. It seems they are fully copied all the achievements of Europe. No, not all. Lift station was, but did not work, and when I came out of the subway and saw a hotel right opposite the station, there was no pedestrian crossing. We had to cross a big trunk. Saved by a passing freight train, blocking the road for drivers. The local cross the road anywhere, go ahead, putting his hand forward. Misses the only way. 7. Here is the first reservation for a hotel. Chose it for one reason - close to the subway. Perhaps you could find for the money something more decent, but did not want to hammer head navigation issues in the early hours on Thai soil.So, the hotel Nasa Vegas. Nothing to do with the aerospace industry, as well as to Las Vegas. 8. The girl at the front desk for a long time trying to find my reservation, even asking her number. It is clear, yet the hotel a lot, I stood in line to get me settled. As a result, regular check-in took 40 minutes. Honestly, if they did not remove the money from my card before arrival - maybe I would have gone to look for something else. 9. In fact, not all that bad. Here's room.Small, with old furniture. But there konditsiner, mini bar with Coca-Cola for 40 rubles. And most importantly - the price is 600 rubles per day. 10. In nmere pretty clean, but something in the evening beginning to stink. Not rule out that me live prostitutes, who are trained in that room-pits. 11. The fact that prostitutes are popular here, clearly hinted two packs of condoms, lovingly laid in the mini-bar. Cost of packaging - 90 rubles, if you are interested. 12.Washed, and finally dressed in shorts, I went for a walk around the city. 13. Line Skytrain. Trains run at intervals of 15-20 minutes. At the station, hot, and, of course, no air conditioning. But there are fans. Who do not. Train traffic also drive on the left. Despite modern trains and stations on each platform is a man in form and with a whistle. Whistles regularly to send it to warn people that they are too close to the edge of the platform. It also repels flies whistle. I think, in fact, these people see to it that all the time to enter the train, and no one got caught doors. 14. The cost of a trip on the subway - twenty rubles.You can pay with coins, pieces of paper cards. Remember this gesture with his hands folded hands. It is made a little bow one's head, thus saying "thank you." Thais are very nice when farang (it is we, the Europeans) attach importance to their customs. 15. Passion for all sorts of gadgets and incomprehensible pieces Thais clearly poznaimstvovali the Japanese. The city has a card of the "Rabbit", which you can fill up and get all sorts of discounts on clothing, coffee, even for a burger at McDonald's. With discounts themselves are free, as I understand it, you just pass by and fill up "rabbit." 16. Bangkok train window like that a million times seen in the pictures. I do not know why, but I would have immediately said, "Asia", seeing this picture. 17. Bangkok old city, but he ruthlessly rid of slums and all the old housing. It's like a quarter of five-story building was demolished, but there is no built luxury housing with a house "at the mercy" of former residents hruschovok and normal modern neighborhood where they were thought to all the details. Utopia? But the Thais as it did not prevent build huge multi-storey car parks around? 18. Went to the Thai Trade Center. Just like us, but more than show off, architectural finds and mini-exhibitions. 19. I bought a sim card. No documents do not ask, you can freely buy prepaid tariffs. Bought for 500 rubles Simcoe local minutes and unlimited internet for a month. 20. Go out on the street - and from Moscow never left. The same plugs in the middle of the day, but go all to the left side of the road. 21. And the number of motorcycles is that Muscovites only nightmares can dream. 22. Above each intersection - the camera. They do not need to send fines by mail, and that the police have seen, where they formed a serious traffic jam and went to adjust the plug. 23. Bangkok - the city is not only a multi-storey, multi-level and. The street floor "decoupling" subway line, the pedestrian gallery ... 24. Yes, the pedestrian walkway - a wonderful invention! In the center of the city, they connect together the various shopping centers, subway stations, and other important facilities. A person does not go on the road with car traffic, it to another level. It's safe! 25. True, the Asian car somewhere while still fails. Pedestrian Crossings "zebra" in general very small, and if there is, the individual traffic lights are not regulated. Drivers are not in a hurry to pass, they have to climb under the wheels with outstretched hand. 26. At first I thought that the houses should train. 27. In Thailand, all love the King. His portraits adorn office buildings, shops, just stand on the street. I love the King.And you love him, even if not yet know. This portrait hangs in the city police department, and, in passing, I asked a passerby if you can take a picture of a police station and a portrait? "Should" - threw a man. 28. Sometimes the streets are Buddhist shrines, and you can see how people take their shoes off and pray. It turns out that their religion is also a tradition to put the candle. 29. The coolest form of transportation in Bangkok - here are the boats. It will be necessary for them to drive. 30. 31. Sometimes I very much think that the "Cherkizon" moved it to Bangkok! Half the city is a solid market for clothes! 32.Moreover, it is unclear whether these markets are local, or for tourists. Duffel consumer goods is very cheap and available on every corner. In shopping malls is also a well-known brands. Just like us. 33. Is that the market does not hesitate to say, sew the clothes here, around the corner, and network boutiques - shy. 34. Even in the market there is a Buddhist area. 35. The tallest building in Thailand. I even climbed up on it and show you what views are there. 36. Held here on every street - dark multitudes. Somehow, in some countries so happened that the old wires are not thrown away, are not removed, but simply pull new. Lamp street lighting in this case - energy saving. 37. Now about the food. I have the whole day went hungry! And not because there is no food in Bangkok, quite the opposite. There is a huge selection of European food, a lot of restaurants, McDonald's, Burger King and so on. But I decided that I would eat the local food. A local food - it's such shops on the street. 38. 39. Until I realized that you can have, but it is not. Accept that the European body, and that rejects. So I only shop pictures. 40. Zhukov did not notice, but that's been such a strange eggs on skewers. What is this? They are raw? 41. In general, the appearance of the food looks unappetizing, so I have a chance to lose weight. 42. On the street without seeing another apparent prostitute. Two knocked into my room, but I do not open. Young girls sitting on the roadside and offer Thai massage. Inexpensive, 200 rubles an hour, but they say that this should be careful, if you press the wrong way, people may die. And I did not know where the men, and where women. Here is this girl Adam's apple or not? It seems there is ... 43. The most interesting thing, of course, in the doorways! And I'm going there tomorrow! 44. Thai people are very kind and usually farang not hurt. 45. Look at the friendly eyes of these guys! They just asked me to eat a strange food, but I refused. 46. In short, Asia is very cool, I'm impressed, and we have everything here is good to learn and share with you. 47. 48. Now the fun part. What you have been waiting for! How I spent the first night's stay?I share with you all the expenses! Total, from the moment of arrival in Bangkok - 1900 rubles. Among them: - 550 rubles per night at the hotel, - 300 rubles for a ticket to the observation deck, - 500 rubles for a SIM card, - 90 rubles for the taxi, and 40 rubles worth the trip on a moped, and 50 - by car. Mokikov to go faster, but worse. On an ordinary taxis standing in traffic, but there is no chance of falling off. - 259 rubles was spent in a card reader. Because its forgotten in Moscow. Hence the cost of a taxi, had to go look for the evening. - 131 rubles on the water. In this heat you drink, like an elephant. When will the car of the journey, it will be necessary to look for a mini-refrigerator. - 70 rubles to the metro and the "express train." It's certainly not the end, you can spend a lot more, and may be less. Let us see what will be spending more. But I'm interested to compare this hotel to the fact that I will have a few days - for 250 rubles :) And now - an advertising minute! This trip is a wonderful sponsors, such as site search tickets Aviasales.ru - that's where I found the perfect ticket with a connection in Hong Kong at a great price. All fly! :) There are also hotel sponsor, the site aggregator for Price Comparison -hotellook.ru It ran just yesterday, everything is new, with the heat, with the heat! Do not even doubt that there will be discounts and competitions.
