Bangkok Biz Trip 2017 - Part 2

The 2nd part of the entry will be about my visit to Wat Pho which is about 40 minutes away from Pullman G.

Wat Pho is a sprawling temple complex.  This temple is where the Reclining Buddha is located.  There's an entrance fee of 100 Baht which includes a free bottle of drinking water.  There's also a guided tour option which I strongly recommend if you're visiting Wat Pho for the first time.  

I spent a good 90 minutes or so in Wat Pho just going around, taking photos, admiring the stupas and Buddhist statues.

Thai Biz Trip 2016

It's time for a business trip again to Thailand.  The first for the year in fact.. I should expect at least 1 more trip in June when the system they will use go live.  And it will be for a much longer duration...  This time I had to visit both Bangkok and Hatyai.  The trip took 5 days and 5 nights altogether.

So the trip starts from Changi as usual, flying with Thai Airways, smooth as silk.  Thai Airways is always one of my favourite airlines to fly with whenever I go to any destination in Thailand.  I'd go on Singapore Airlines too if their fares were cheaper due to some promotions.  

I didn't bring any cameras, just using handphone camera which this time is a Sony Z5 Premium.
