Bangkok Bangkok

Tuk-tuks breeze past grocery-laden locals amid the gong of a temple bell. Thailand's capital is a teeming, cosmopolitan city, but within the bustle dwells a hidden calm. Born from the eternal serenity of a million Buddha statues, the grace of a traditional dancer, or even the cadence of a busy marketplace, it is an intrinsic tranquility distinctive to this dazzling land. "The City of Angels," comprises a matchless beauty, not only in its exquisite landscape abloom with frangipani, or its architecture of golden temple spires, but also in its people. Observe for a moment and witness the elegance of a formal Thai greeting. The "wai" is one of the world's most gracious signs of respect.
