Bangkok, Thailand
Hi, there, my dear Steemians,
This is my entry #3 to this week edition of Photochain STREET SHOTS contest, by @runicar.
Photos: This is Thailand (Bangkok and Chiang Mai)! Thailand is much more than Bangkok and Chiang Mai, but when we talk about these two cities, we must say they are totally different one from the other:
Bangkok, the huge capital, is as if it were a lot of different cities within a single one. It’s huge! I've been there four times until now and it seems I am in a different "Bangkok" each time I travel to there, depending on the area I'm staying.
It's a vibrant and modern capital that doesn't stop to grow! It’s amazing! Full of new and original architecture and trendy places to visit, along with the monumental temples I’ve been showing you from time to time here in Steemit: the Grand Palace, Wat Arun, Wat Pho or the reclined Buddha temple…
Chiang Mai is smaller, with a human-dimension size, and it seems that, when you walk, the history of the places and the (more than 200!) temples walk along with you. And, despite that, has the trendiest restaurants, coffee shops and all kind of shops you can find in a single city! It’s classic, but modern, simple but also sophisticated!
That's not in vain that many and many foreigners choose Chiang Mai to live after retirement, and the city is on the first places in the ranking of the best cities to live for retired people. It's cheap, culturally amazing, with great events all over the year and full of style... perfect for an awesome lifestyle!
However, in what takes to street photos, both cities can offer you, in the same proportion, the best moments to capture. As these 3 ones below :))!
Hope you enjoy the photos! Let me know in the comments which one you like best!
As my friend @tattoodjay says in his #wednesdaywalk challenge "I am not strict on these rules and hence why they are called guidelines" I hope he doesn't mind this my #wednesdaywalk today was as big as from the North to the South of Thailand and still accepts this post as my entry to this week challenge, as I guess I will have to work till very late in the afternoon and will not walk to anywhere else but driving straight home. Will you, Jay?
Have a wonderful Tuesday, my friends, steem on!
Thanks to all!
