Thailand is particularly magical country and offers a host of tourist attractions that millions frequent it each year. In this article I’ll give some of the places I got them in - 2 visits in Thailand. I allow myself to give their explanations of Thailand as the general history, demographics and so economics.
Bangkok
Bangkok today widely is considered to be one of the most dynamic and colourful cities in Asia. Its history is no less a colourful transformation from a sleepy village to a fast-paced 21st century mega-city, with a modern city skyline. Bangkok has considerable cultural and historical significance, from the early days of the “Rattanakosin Era” to its expansion in the nineteenth century. Bangkok’s evolution into the current regional hub of Asian came about while preserving the city’s unique soul and character, with its landmarks of temples and palaces that remain relatively unchanged over the years.
The Temple of the Emerald Buddha, located in
a separate complex within the compound of the
Grand Palace, is Thailand’s holiest shrine. Officially
named Wat Phra Si Rattanasatsadaram, the temple complex was modelled on the temples of the Sukhothai and Ayuttaya eras. Even though small in size, the Emerald Buddha is considered one of the most important icons for Thai people. The sacred Buddha was fi rst brought to Thonburi, currently the west side of Bangkok, by King Taksin the Great. In 1784, King Rama I moved the statue to the current location in Bangkok. It should be pointed out that the Emerald Buddha is in reality carved from a large piece of green jade. The word in Thai for emerald means “green colour”.
The International Airport of Thailand is here; almost always you begin your trip and end it in the capital of Thailand - Bangkok. This is a great volume dimensions and although he has been thorough cleaning in recent years, though very far from cities in India for example. Many floors mix together Dimensions Antique temples, markets vulgar people. Despite the very short Bangkok, I realized it was already one of the most fascinating cities in the world despite the heat most of the year.
Bangkok is a city full of tasty experiences and food sensations. Apart from
renowned Thai cuisine with its blend of spicy, sour, sweet and salty, there
are also national dishes from almost every country to be found. Dining
options are as unpredictable as some of the dishes. Great value food courts,
riverside bar-restaurants, Thai style dining in teak pavilions, air-conditioned fine dining, or brand fast food chains – Bangkok offers a total food experience.

This checklist will help to ensure that your virtual tour has a professional look and represents your
hotel well. Remember this photo will be a complete 360 degrees of the area that you are
photographing, so a long blank wall will be exactly that–a long blank wall. Carefully consider what the
camera lens will see. A good way to get an accurate idea of this is to stand in the middle of the area
you are shooting and slowly turn around in a complete circle. Observe the room and consider what
the finished product will look like. This type of photography is not meant to have people in the photo
area. Consider that each photo is like a movie set, pay attention to the details and have all of the sets
ready before the photographer arrives.
Have the curtains open and be sure they hang evenly
Consider what the camera will photograph outside of any windows in you photo area
Remove all waste cans from a guest room or public space
When shooting the lobby remove luggage carts and newspaper stands
Do not shoot the exterior of your hotel if part of the view is a parking lot or an area you cannot
control
Turn on all of the lights in the area you are shooting
Consider adding flowers or green plants to enhance the color contrasts in your photos
When shooting the breakfast area remove highchairs, be sure that the buffet is fully stocked
If photographing a restaurant remove waste cans, highchairs, tray stands and carefully detail the
service areas
Choose areas that will have a high visual impact
Block rooms the night before so they will be ready for the photographer
Plan to halt traffic through the lobby, restaurant or other public areas during the photo shoot
Check to see that all art work is hanging evenly
Pay special attention to clutter on and around the front desk area
Although this is not a brochure shoot it still very effective to have the meeting room fully set
Also, don’t hesitate to place a computer, briefcase or other business items in the guest room.
