Buddhist Lend Day

Family joined the "Buddhist Lend Day"

On Tanabata's day in Bangkok...

We have no such any celebration but we found some

event presented at Isetan Dept. so we took some pictures

for some feeling that we also participated this festival

same like in Japan (^^')

We coincidently meet each other on that day as well

because Panda-kun has the other schedule with his friend

and I also have my own schedule but in the same place

so we finally meet each other on the fixed time as same as

Tanabata's story (^^)



We have chance to visit Kanchanburi again but different places
which far away from the first time so we decided to stay a night there.

Here's Sangkraburi and Thongphaphum, the border between Thai-Myanmar

We visited a dam and it's so beautiful dam with the nice mountains



Along way to Sangkraburi, the border of Thai-Myanmar,
there's a nice view...

We didn't go inside at the Myanmar area, just only

watching at the border because we needed to process

many documents thing and also the raining all day

is so difficult to travelling.



Terrible road after raining!! Seem like nobody care
about this area at all... so sad...

This's Mon's bridge, a group of people in Thailand
stayed here and they built this wooden bridge which is
the longest wooden bridge in Thailand.

This temple is very famous and this monk has already gone away

but people respect him a lot and he built up a temple with Indian Style.

His dead body still keep in the teak wood beside his statue.

Finally, we visited Hot Spring. In Thailand also

have Natural hot spring!! we have only 15 min.

to relax our legs here. 

Ayutthaya on May 2012

First time to Ayutthaya of Panda-kun. Quite hot

but better than rainning (^^)

I want to visit Ayutthaya to see how our historical building

were broken after big flood last year but they seem to renovate

very quick also.

Inside the Royal Palace in the past

At the Wat Mahathat with the famous buddha head

Still renovating and we could see how different

between old and new one with wall and pagoda!

The destroyed of buddha statue

Temple here also was destroyed...

At the Japanese Village. Nothing here and they have no

such the presenting of the real historical stuffs to feel

the atmosphere of Japanese village.

Tuk Tuk of Ayutthaya, like a frog, isn't it?

The passing way to the town...

China Town on Feb. 2012

Finally we find out a free week to celebrate Chinese New Year
by praying god at China Town. They said that this year may not
be the very good luck to me so I better pray god at this temple
at China Town. Even we come here on the day of the lastest day
to pray god, but still have about one thousand of people come to
pray god.

After we finished our mission, we found a Chinese restaurant
with noodle and Chinese Dumpling (Tenshin). It costs only
about 180 baht for all of this set! good taste and reasonable price...

China Town Gate is the other spot that we shouldn't missing!

We walked through the opened market in China Town
and get swet till we have to find out a place to take a rest
so Panda-kun offered to see movie costs 50 baht with
2 movies!! But after we watched about 20 min. Panda-kun
found out some terrible things inside the theatre that
made us leave the theatre at the middle of the movie!
You better find out those terrible things by yourself at
China Town Theatre!! (^-^')

Panda-kun faced out that terrible emotion by trying to
have traditional Chinese face treatment by using thread
to cut and clean your face. Panda-kun said it's a bit painful
when they pull off the hairs on the face but feel good~~ (^^)
It takes about 45 min. to finish with costs of 100 baht
but made the shop person get swet (^^')

Ginger soup with tofu

Today we went to my old house area and of course that I have to take my favorite food that is tofu in ginger soup. It is good to your stomach also not only good taste :)

About 25 years later, this shop still here and the taste
still same (^^)

Kitchen Niigata

This restaurant called "Kitchen Niigata" that
Panda-kun oftenly go for eating Japanese food
every time he has home sick (^^)

This restaurant is over at Sukhumvit 26 by taking
BTS to Promphong station and walk a bit to the
Emporium Department Store side.

The reasonable price and Japanese authentic taste
will make you feel thinking about your home town (^^)
