Bangkok suggestions???

Quote from zedDoubleNaught:

3 most fun temples in BKK:

Wat Prakaew (pra - KOW) -- easy to get to by taxi, can spend about 1 hour looking around, lots of sculptures and architecture to look at.

Wat Arun (a - ROON) -- across the river, can spend about 20-30 minutes, very tall. Most fun is taking a river taxi across the Chao Praya to get there, because then you will see a lot of normal Bangkok life as you go. And boats are always pleasant and relaxing.

Wat Pho (Poe) -- somewhere around Wat Prakaew, center of Thai traditional massage. Pretty cool -- you sit in an open room with a bunch of oteher people getting massage. Can spend over 1 hour if you get a massage. But note -- some people find Thai massage uncomfortable to painful (I don't like it much).




Was your cock in a mental hospital while you were visiting these temples?

They were the only places left not yet added to the "Can't Go There Again After Last Night" list. There's also Dusit Zoo on Ratchwithi, but when I go to leave the staff usually try to keep me from getting out ...
 
Quote from Optional:

Off to Bangkok for business and taking my younger brother with me.
He is single and I'm not. Humph!

Any suggestions as to a few tourist sites to visit? We are there only 4 days.

Also, restaurants, clubs, massage (sexy and soapy and just regular) would be appreciated.

We are staying at a Ritzy hotel but we want to avoid getting stuck there. Money isn't an object but as always I like a bargain.

Thanks!



4 days and the seed will be planted poy-manently. Nobody else might ever know, but YOU will and you'll go back home and wonder what changed all of a sudden ... what went wrong?

see 3rd post from top, Page 44 (or 7 of 7) in link below. If your dinosaur back home looks like anyone except for the last one, you will have hit the inflection point. But will you change anything? Not a fckin prayer. Life will go on but with a hazed view of the abyss you revel in and assume is your stable datum.

Goodluck pal. You should have just stayed home. :)

Sounds like you're one of the usual dopey-ass clowns who just head straight for the red light district, thereby blocking out 99% of the rest of the population. Another idiot, nothing new, nothng startling, same-o, same-o.

Since you're a trader try to up your sights in a heartbeat by doing this ....

go to the Worawat building on Silom Road, 4th floor or others above and go visit with well educated asian traders and the knockout females that work for the brokerage there. If you're a coward you'll know it instantly for you'll do an about turn and charge out of the building with your cock in a shrunken state from overwhump.

Just go back in and talk to someone you fancy. They are traders too and the single ones are all ready to date and what's more, they speak english and know the city well and you'll see some upscale places with real thai culture and never need to set foot in the red light districts.

Go get 'em, retard.
 
Quote from colonelangus:

regarding restaurants, clubs and massage, depends upon where you are staying, like are we talking "ritzy" on the chao phraya (oriental, peninsula, shangri-la), or silom area or along the sukhumvit-phloen chit line?

would check out previously mentioned mahanaga, have been there quite a few times. not inexpensive in a relative sense but tasty food in a funky ambience. similarly good food and price at baan khanitha, they have branches on sathorn and sukhumvit 23, would opt for the sukhumvit 23 one as it is a nice soi, lots of trees and which also has a slew of the rubber matress massage joints, maybe 200 yards down from sukhumvit.
another funky place i haven't been to in a while is http://www.bedsupperclub.com/bangkok/en/ which has a club attached and is on sukhumvit soi 11. Qbar is right around the corner, which is also an ok, rather upscale club.
for the girlie bar/clubs, there is the one at nana hotel at suk. soi 4 or there are several lively joints on patpong soi 1 and 2, most all of them not getting going until after 10 if not midnight.
for a good seafood joint, check out khrua nay baan on lang suan near lumphini park. caveat; do not let the tuk-tuk drivers take you to their recommended seafood place as it is way overpriced (commissions for them). there are also a few good legit massage parlors on lang suan (i.e.no happy ending), valaikorn being one of them, massage number 5 another.
one other restaurant worth a trip is called Just One(no points for the name;-), if not raining as they have a great outdoors ambience and equally delicious food and is right at the corner of soi ngam duphli and sathorn soi 1. soi ngam duphli is across rama 4 by walking bridge from lumphini muay thai stadium. if you get to just one and it starts to rain on you, up sathorn soi 1 about 50 yards is a pricey, shi shi restaurant called Pandanus, worth a trip.
ok, gotta get on the day here.
enjoy:D
you can PM me if you want more info.

Thanks Angus! Anyone got anything else?

absogoshdarnedlutely chockablock full of useful info, ye are, brother D:D
me knows the building well as 'tis a couple o' blocks down from where i go to get the shit kicked out of my hubris riddled ass by a 250 pound bodybuilding muay thai accomplished Auzzie (near silom soi 13). not difficult' cause 90 pound thai girls kick harder than i do but hey, when in rome, or the land of bangin' or as they say, "boomboom"ing cock...

anyway, i had no idea there were traders in Worawat, though it isn't surprising, nice building. are they daytrading their own accounts or just stockbrokers swingin' with other people's money?
i used to know a thai stockbroker that lived in the same apartment building as well as a farang that worked for a boiler room outift on Asoke that would cold call unsuspecting Kiwis and Auzzies whose fleece had grown long and ever so soft...Luckily, he got out before they all got arrested. upon return, will be sure to make it up to the 4th floor to see what they have going on.

as you are up in chiang mai, you ever run into marc faber or happen upon his crazy house on the river? seems as if you could have fun chatting with the old fella.

later bro
