Thailand's guide to solo travel notes for solo travel in Thailand

Thailand is a foreign tourist attraction that many people will choose now, and it is particularly popular with Chinese people this year. After reading so many raiders, Bian Xiao really wants to visit Thailand, which is very exotic and interesting. Next, Bian Xiao will tell you how to play alone in Thailand.

On the evening of 28th, we made an appointment with the tour leader to meet at Pudong Airport. It was about 1 local time in Bangkok, and Thailand was one hour behind China. Then the local guide took us to the hotel. Because I slept late and the first day was late, everyone had a good breakfast in the hotel and set off in unison. The whole group1* * 21person, and 6 people including me flew from Shanghai. Two couples, one of whom is nearly 60 years old, called my uncle and aunt, and their daughter booked it for them. The other couple is about 40 years old. I call them sister and brother. Other 15 people all flew in from Nanjing. One of my sisters and I are building an apartment. There are seven of them, six men and one woman. The boss took them out. Coincidentally, they are my hometown.

The weather in Bangkok is very good these days. More than 30 degrees at noon, slightly lower in the morning and evening, but also more than 20 degrees. The tour guide informed everyone in advance that on the first day of going to the Grand Palace and the Jade Buddha Temple, you should wear clothes with sleeves and girls' skirts should be knee-high. The sun is really bright at noon, but there are many tourists visiting the Grand Palace. Almost all of them are from China. . .

Every time we go to a building, the tour guide will introduce you first, and some of them are not allowed to take pictures. Then they will say that we will meet at the designated place at a certain time, and then everyone will spread out and move freely. The six of us had agreed to appoint Xiao Xianrou as the team leader (1992), but there were so many people that we got separated. In the end, it was just me and the little fresh meat. I don't know since when people always make fun of us. . . The queen's clothes are displayed in the Grand Palace, and the Jade Buddha Temple mainly looks at their buildings. Although it was built many years ago, it still feels magnificent, especially the murals on the wall.

After the land tour, we visited the Chao phraya River by boat. The boatman put a wreath on everyone and of course gave a tip. Thailand, like western countries, is a tipping country, and the accommodation fee is 20 baht per night. The exchange rate between RMB and Thai baht is about 1:5. Before I went, I made an appointment with China Bank to exchange RMB of around 1000. I can change it in Thailand, but it may not be cost-effective. Anyway, I'll go back to the bank to change it after I use it. Visiting the Grand Palace before was too hot to be fully integrated. On the boat, blowing the sea breeze, I feel that life is too beautiful and all my troubles have been forgotten.

After the parade, the next activity is to go to the theater to watch the shemale performance for 45 minutes. Thai shemale is famous all over the world. Some people say that Thailand comes for nothing without looking at the shemale, just like it is not a true man who can't reach the Great Wall. The tour guide said that this is only a little to satisfy everyone's curiosity first, and there will be more wonderful shemale performances in the next few days. As soon as we got on the bus that morning, he left us homework to think about whether the shemale is a man or a woman, whether we can get married, and whether to go to the men's room or the women's room. I have to say, the performance was wonderful, but it's a pity that I didn't take a clear picture in the back. I also learned from my friends that transvestites are men, but those transvestites are really beautiful and their bodies really don't mean anything.

At the end of the shemale show, the tour guide said that everyone had worked hard all day, and then they would take you to experience authentic thai massage. It's been an hour. Never experienced it. I'm a little curious. As early as when we went out, the tour guide told us that Thailand was called the handsome old mother, the beautiful woman was called Shuijingjing or Shuilingling, and the aunt was called Wang Shui. It was a water sprite who massaged me. Because of the skirt I was wearing that day, she gave me a pair of big shorts to put on first. Thank me for my yoga, otherwise I will feel too much. She can be very strong sometimes, and I'm a little ticklish. I have been holding back when I press my feet, so although I am relaxed, I am actually very nervous during the whole massage process. But it's really comfortable after pressing, especially when pressing the neck and shoulder neck behind, so I want to sleep. After the massage, I gave a tip of 50 baht. SPA in Thailand is also famous. The tour guide said it was not included. They can help contact about 400 RMB, which is still cheaper than domestic ones and very authentic. My sister said she wanted to experience it. I think it's a little expensive. In the end, because few people are willing to do it, they will go away.

After dinner, there are three buffets a day. I have expected that I will gain a lot of weight these days. Before I came, my friend said Thai fruit was delicious, but I may not be used to rice. I was asked to bring several packets of instant noodles and pickles. As a result, I brought them back as they were. The buffet in Thailand is similar to that in China, but the fried taste is a little worse.

After dinner, I went to Siam Theatre to enjoy a wonderful performance, mainly about Thai art and culture. The theater is very big, and the performance lasts about 80 minutes. Taking pictures is not allowed. This is really great. The introduction of the tour guide, coupled with our own observation, such a backward Thailand and such wonderful performances and stage effects can be compared with the Spring Festival Gala in China, which is incredible.

Because of the serious traffic jam in Bangkok, the tour guide asked everyone to gather early the next day, and then we took a bus to the Treasure Garden in Thailand, where all kinds of fashionable jewelry were launched. What impressed me most after a few days was that no matter where you go, the staff will introduce you first. So is the Treasure Garden. First of all, we watched a video to introduce how all kinds of gems were mined and finally turned into sapphires and rubies we see now. After enjoying it, I went to the jewelry counter. It is really unimaginable to see so many kinds of gems at once, with prices ranging from several hundred to tens of thousands and millions. There are really many people buying them on the spot. I just want to say that there are so many rich people. The six of us are just looking.

Next, visit the leather products exhibition hall. The bags here are all made of crocodile skin or pearl fish skin. Of course, they are expensive. A belt costs 3-4 K. I don't know how long it will take to reach this consumption level. Although we can't afford it, we can still get a good belt and wallet, although I don't know the goods either. I happened to be walking with our leader. He is a handsome young man. He encouraged me to buy a belt for my family. Then he took out his wallet and said it was 4K, made of crocodile skin. I said that I seem to earn a lot of money as a tour guide. He said, what do you expect a tour guide to do with this salary? Then I took out my mobile phone and looked at it, saying that there is a table of guests in the store now, probably just 10. What am I talking about? He said that his hotpot restaurant was reserved for his wife and brother. He hardly goes. Sometimes he will check the monitor to see if he is lazy. If he is lazy, he will call them and scold them.

Then the younger brother said that he also registered a small company to do foreign trade. Every time he takes a group out, he buys something back, and the circle of friends sells it easily, making a difference. Some can get tax rebates. People who buy big things earn more, and others have to accept your personal feelings. Moreover, he often comes out and knows what sells well and is popular, so he will buy more. I said that everything is a business opportunity in your eyes. He said he could make a lot of money in his circle. He has been in contact with others for a long time and has seen more. Their friends used to get together and find a place to drink tea and play cards. Now everyone will discuss what is better to invest in the near future and what good ways to make money together.

He graduated from Nanjing Normal University in 1984, 10 years old. A few days ago, they held a party for the 10 anniversary of their university. The wine they drank was sponsored by their classmates, a bottle of 1000 was more than 65438, and the clothes were also customized. He is just so-so. He has a house, a car, a wife, children and a hot pot restaurant in Nanjing. I'm surprised at this. I said that so-called good students like us only know how to study, get a little salary every month, pay rent and spend some money, and basically have nothing. He said that no one can count on wages now. He comes from rural Yangzhou. You see, at 10, he has everything he needs. He said that you should think more, just like when you come out to make friends and help others bring things, the toll will come back. You don't even send friends. I said that almost no one knew about my coming out, not even my parents. I have basically blocked the purchase of friends. He said you didn't need shielding. You can look at the current market situation. He also said, look at these crazy people who buy bags. Some of them are for personal use. Most of them were bought for others, almost two hours. I didn't go shopping behind, and I kept chatting with the tour guide. I have to say, this little tour guide has opened my eyes. We have been complaining that we can't make money and earn less. In fact, we have always stayed in a comfortable circle, unwilling to step out, and our vision is too narrow. We didn't think much about it either. After all, opportunities are reserved for those who are prepared.

After the visit and lunch, we set off for Pattaya. The first stop is to ride an elephant and take a carriage in Chiang Mai Town. I'm excited to think about it. Because we are two people together, I am with the little boy. Unfortunately, we are not allowed to take pictures when riding an elephant. They are specially responsible for taking photos, but each one costs 100 baht. We don't want it because it's a little expensive and the snapshot is not good. At first, I was worried that it was inconvenient to wear a skirt. As a result, I saw a chair on the elephant's back, just enough for two people to sit, and a man in front was driving the elephant to adjust the direction. I was a little scared when I first sat on it, but I got better slowly, but the elephant smelled a little, haha. We rode an elephant for a long way and finally gave our master a tip. Because it ended early, we went to the side to buy pineapples to eat, 100 baht a bag, four, because the scenic spots are a little expensive, and there are usually five or six pineapples in other places 100 baht, all peeled, so sweet and delicious. We eat a lot of pineapples these days. Generally speaking, domestic pineapples should be run in salt water first, and some silk will stick to the teeth when eating. After eating the pineapple in Thailand, I feel that the pineapple in China is really bad.

The next step is to take a carriage, and there is a sign for taking pictures at the door. Two couples together let me take a picture with the little boy. They said several times that we were a little embarrassed, so we took a few pictures. It is conceivable that everyone has been making fun of us since then. The environment in the carriage is particularly good and everyone is very happy. Next, we will watch crocodiles up close, and then watch the Songkran Festival in Thailand. There is a special place to change clothes and take a bath. I'm afraid I won't attend because my hair is wet. I am responsible for taking pictures of everyone. I've only heard of the Dai water splashing festival before, but I didn't expect it to be held in Thailand, and it's really exaggerated. Everyone takes two pots that are bigger than bowls, and whoever wants to splash them. The more people are splashed, the more popular they are. It is conceivable that the most popular is beauty. Everyone joked that they were wet.

The next stop is Du Lala Sifang Water Market, which is famous for filming Du Lala's propaganda. Beautiful scenery, winding rivers, all kinds of snacks, everything. We have more than an hour of free time, or the six of us together. Everyone buys pineapples together, and there are all kinds of snacks that can't be named. A man is holding a big coconut, which weighs several kilograms. We sat down in a shop by the river, ordered beef rice noodles and enjoyed them slowly, eating barbecue and drinking coconut. That big coconut is only 20 baht, equivalent to RMB 4, 5 yuan. I didn't know that the most nutritious part of coconut was white coconut skin until I ate it for the first time, but I didn't get too little off it. We dug with chopsticks and spoons for a long time. I am not very good at it. Both husband and wife have help, and the little boy is also very caring. He said he would help me, and he still took care of my elder sister during the whole trip, haha.

Next, take a boat to the Princess cruise ship to enjoy the shemale performance. At that time, the light was already on, and it was really beautiful to sit in a boat and look at the shore. I suddenly thought of the scene of taking a boat to Shengsi with NS colleagues two years ago. Because the cruise ship Princess was too big to dock, she had to take the guests there by boat. The tour guide has given us a vaccination, and the food on the cruise ship is average. Fortunately, our position is very good, right next to the stage. They deliberately set aside a dish, and if they want to eat something else, they ask the waiter for it, but they have to pay 20 baht. At dinner, everyone appreciated the shemale show. They were all beautifully dressed, not to mention their bodies. After the performance, you can also get a tip with the shemale. Everyone is very active and tipping is basically soft. Some transvestites are smart enough to run down to the table and ask for a tip. They will touch you with "big breasts" first, and then ask for a tip. The little boy was scared to death, not that he didn't want to tip, but I felt creepy and rushed out.

After the shemale show, there was a mango seller on the way back, and his skin was peeled off. A box of 100 baht is really super delicious. At first, I never ate mangoes, and I found the taste of mangoes unbearable. Later, I gradually began to eat a little, but I still felt strange, but the mango I ate that day was really delicious. The last program of the day, in the words of the tour guide, is an adult program, and minors can graduate after watching it. Pattaya is nicknamed "the capital of sex", where sex is allowed by the state. I won't go into details. If you go to Pattaya, enjoy yourself.

Before I went, my friend repeatedly stressed not to forget to bring my swimsuit, but I still forgot. Fortunately, my sister lent me two sets, and I tried them on just right. On the third day we went to sea. The tour guide asked everyone to change their swimsuits and slippers in advance when they went out in the morning. He borrowed a bath towel from the hotel to cover himself. First, we go to Dajinsha Island by speedboat. We can go to the seaside for free activities and participate in various charging items.

Except for the old couple, all six of us signed up for the water speedboat. At first, we didn't know why, but we just happened to be together. I didn't expect to ride a speedboat on water. It's terrible. Fortunately, we have a master with us. At first, the master drove us. We just held the handle with our hands, because the speed was too fast and the sea water sprayed on our faces. It's too salty to drink too much water, and our eyes can hardly be opened. When I was driving in the sea, I was afraid that I would fall into the water if I couldn't catch it. It's really scary, but it's also exciting The handsome guy in charge of the dinghy asked me if I could swim, and I said a little. I was thinking, if I really fall into the water, you must catch me. . . There are other projects, but I feel a little expensive and I am reluctant to give them up. After the water speedboat, we swam and splashed in the sea, and it was very comfortable to step on the fine sand. It's a pity that our mobile phones were not put in the bag to take pictures. We stayed in the water for nearly two hours that morning. This is the first time that we like water so much. We can see the blue sky when we look up, surrounded by mountains nearby, and the water is very clear. My brother and sister are so romantic. My brother took my sister to play with water, but my sister was not very good at swimming. He said it's okay. He pulled her and let her swim freely. Really, during the whole trip, because the six of us have been together, it is really enviable to see that my brothers and sisters and uncles and aunts have such good feelings. Every time I eat, especially when I do it myself, my uncle always goes to get food for my aunt. In the next two days, my brother had a sore throat and caught a cold. My sister has been holding a cup in her hand, and after a while, she let her brother drink some water. Sometimes I think I should believe in love more in my twenties. Look at them in their fifties and forties. They still travel hand in hand and take care of each other.

After coming back from the seaside, we went to another island by speedboat to shoot parachutes at our own expense. I was a little reluctant at first, and both my brother and sister and the little boy said they would attend. I'd like to, but I feel sorry for Grandpa Mao. It cost 800 baht, almost 200 RMB. Later, let's bite the bullet. It's rare to come to Thailand once, and I may not come again. It's really exciting, so we will join them. The staff tied us tightly with ropes, so let's run a few steps first. It's my turn I'm a little scared, but flying in the sky is much better. Looking down from the sky, everything is so small that it seems that other mountains are dwarfed under the sky ... sometimes it seems that they will soon depend on water. When the speedboat driver in front sees it, he will speed up and fly high again. Looking at everything in the sky, I feel another scenery. This kind of skydiving experience is too rare.

Lunch is a seafood dinner in a restaurant by the sea. After eating, go to the next destination-latex products experience hall. Thailand's rubber pillows are world-famous, but they are also a little expensive. A pillow costs 500 to 600 RMB. Visiting this place, the little boy and I felt that we had been killed. At first, the little boy said he would take a big suitcase to buy a pillow, but when he heard the price, he said forget it and buy some snacks. I thought latex pillows were already expensive, but who knows, latex mattresses are more expensive. My uncle and aunt bought a bed, which is close to 1.5W, and my brother and sister also bought a bed, which is almost 9K. For me, this consumption level is really too high. They place an order directly, send it back by express for free, and it will be received in about 20 days. I told the little boy that we should work hard to make money when we go back, otherwise we can't even afford a pillow. . . The rich boss in my hometown gives each employee two latex pillows, which is almost 1300 RMB. I envy such a boss.

It was 3 1, the last day of the year, and I went back to the hotel earlier. Everyone gets together for the New Year, just like there are activities outside the hotel. My uncle and aunt rested early for fear of noise. I, my little boy, my brother and sister, and two other boys ordered food and drink together (basically drinking, I can't drink beer, and they also scolded me for waiting to see 12 fireworks. Everyone comes from different places, and it is also fate to be able to celebrate the New Year together. I still remember that I spent the New Year in Huangshan with my friends last year. Let's chat together. Two boys, one from Yancheng and the other from northern Jiangsu. Now he has settled in Shanghai. It doesn't look like much, but he is already a small boss. In his words, he has been tossing and turning and worked abroad for a year after graduation. I opened a barbecue shop in my hometown (now I gave it to my father-in-law, and I gave it to my wife). Another little boy was born in 1996. He is too young and likes to play around. I learned from the chat that they all booked one or two days before departure, and the cost was much lower than ours. Although our price is around 3000, it's worth it. They also revealed the special package, which they will pay attention to when they want to go out to play in the future, haha. At the beginning of that day, I was actually a little dizzy. Maybe I spent too much time in the water this morning. Besides, I never like drinking. I want to go back to bed early. I can't stand them spending the New Year together. Now it seems that it is right to stay. Chatting with you, learning a lot of news, and meeting many friends, I am really happy. Especially in Bangkok or 1 1, the circle of friends has been screened by domestic friends. What shall we do? Haha. Ten minutes later, when we were walking along the beach, 12 o'clock sharp, colorful fireworks came to mind, very beautiful. At that moment, I thought it was amazing to go abroad for the New Year alone.

This morning, we visited Tess Textile Center, perhaps because we were not married. I can't imagine that a quilt costs five or six thousand yuan. After listening to the explanation of the staff, the rich boss bought two beds, and the postage was very convenient.

Then there was the human-snake war, which was quite scary. I took some photos and then deleted them. Later, someone introduced Thai snake medicine, but no one bought it.

In the afternoon, I arranged to buy it at buy buy, a famous international duty-free shop in KingPower, Thailand. Anyway, most of them are from China, and the feeling is to buy cabbage. I bought a L 'Oré al lipstick wisely, and everyone recommended it. When visiting the jewelry booth, my sister saw a Swarovski necklace, a classic cygnet, made of white platinum. She said that the domestic demand is more than 1000, and here it is only 2900 baht, almost more than 500 RMB. It's a good deal. Advise me to buy one. I thought it was a little expensive at first. She said that girls should be kind to themselves, learn to dress up and wear skirts in summer. I'm a little touched, too. It really feels good to wear it, thinking that my only necklace is still a gift. When I saw my sister wearing a necklace, I didn't even recognize the Chanel logo. I asked her jokingly how much it was. She said hers was more expensive, I didn't say it to scare me. Look at her earrings, which are also the symbol of Chanel. I didn't know until later . . I struggled and bought myself one as a New Year's gift, and my sister bought the same one for her daughter.

Basically, KingPower has all the big names, most of which are cheaper and some are more expensive than Pudong Airport. My sister introduced me a lot, including cosmetics and clothing. She said that there is a SK2 toner that is especially suitable for me to try. Seeing that the price of a bottle is more than 1000, I whispered that I really can't afford it now. She's afraid I'm embarrassed to say anything, so we'll watch something else. Passing by a shop called PUMA, I looked at the pictures next to English words like cheetahs. I asked casually what brand it was. Lions, leopards, sisters and brothers walked in front and laughed at me. My sister said it was called Puma, a sports brand similar to addidas, which was really despised that day. I can't imagine how high the consumption level of my brothers and sisters is. My sister even remembers how much clothes of the same brand cost in Shanghai, and what she will tell me. Later, I went to the snack specialty area and was dragged by my friend to buy two boxes of small boss seaweed. Others bought some mangoes, coconut candy and so on. After all, you have to buy some when you go out.

After visiting KingPower, it's dinner time. The tour guide emphasized that prawns were full at night, and the online evaluation was very high. Everyone should let go and eat. Really, that was the first time I saw the shrimp in the box. The cook grabbed everyone's plate with that big hand. Didn't say I didn't have enough to eat. It depends on whether your appetite is big enough. Besides the classic prawns, there are all kinds of fruits. (Thailand has fruit for every meal for several days. Pineapple and watermelon are essential sweetness. No cake and seafood. In short, just let go and eat them.

In the evening, we drove back to Bangkok and stayed in the hotel on the first day. A friend checked Chinatown, which is 1.8km away from the hotel. It is the location of the movie "Detective Chinatown". We agreed to go there at night. After going back to the hotel to have a rest, we will set off when the boys come back from swimming. Only four young people, me, the little boy, and two handsome guys, uncles and aunts, brothers and sisters, who had dinner together the day before, didn't go. On the first day, the tour guide told us that Thai people opened their stalls at night and almost closed them in the morning. So when we went, it happened to be lively, and there were many shops and people. Thai people basically go to 7- 1 1 to buy things, and there is one almost every few hundred meters. We did the same in those days, buying water and everything. At a 7- 1 1 in Chinatown, the little boy said that Haagen-Dazs here is cheaper than in China and wanted to buy one to try. I haven't eaten before, so I invited everyone to eat an ice cream around 30 yuan. It is delicious.

I returned to the hotel at about 1 1, and my fellow sister who lived with me was still awake. We chatted for a while. Although we lived together for a few days, we didn't rush to talk every day. They are flying to Nanjing, and the plane will take off at 4 pm the next day. Our flight to Shanghai is at midnight, so don't worry. My sister is in her forties. She asked about me and told me about her. Working in a small county, the company has a good performance this year, and the boss rewards everyone for traveling. When they came, they also undertook a large project of more than 6.5438 billion yuan. They do fire engineering, and she is an accountant. She is not too busy. My son goes to high school, and my husband works in an office, and his life is stable. Listen to her a little envy, she said it depends on everyone's choice. She has a sister who married in Taicang. At first, she was bitter and often called back to cry. Fortunately, it's all right now. I talked a lot with my sister that day. I remember my sister said that it is not easy to be a woman. It is unfair for society to have to work and take care of the family. That's how everyone gets here.

The six of us flew to Shanghai at 2 o'clock in the evening and had free activities on the last day. Due to lack of sleep a few days ago, we basically woke up naturally that day. The hotel had breakfast, checked the luggage and set off. First, I visited the fruit supermarket, had a fruit lunch, rested in the hotel lobby in the afternoon, and set off for Chinatown again around 4 o'clock, because they said they had never been there and wanted to see it. I ate all kinds of snacks in Chinatown, found a China restaurant for a long time, booked dinner, and then went back to the hotel to rest. At 9 o'clock in the evening, the tour guide came to the hotel on time and took us to the airport to meet another Shanghai tour guide.
