Bangkok and Beyond

A few days in Thailand don't allow you either to head towards the northern regions to discover Thai culture, or to go down to Phuket to relax on the most beautiful beaches of the Indian Ocean. So we decided to make some short excursions in Bangkok and its surroundings, visiting not only the royal palace and the most famous temples in the city, but also the floating market and the Rose Garden (with its typical Thai shows), and to push on as far as the Kanchanaburi region to travel the River Kwai by motorboat, visit its museum and the war cemetery, and make a small detour to the tiger temple.
