This picture was taken outside Central World Plaza, which is a shopping mall. There are also other smaller shopping malls around the are and at the end of the street is the largest 'Si Bin Hood' which is known to be very 'sia' (meaning any wish made will come true) but one would have to come back and thank the 'Si Bin Hood'. I don't know how true it is but if my wish does come true, I will definitely come back.
Not knowing much about Thailand, I am surprised to find out that Bangkok is so much more advanced compared to KL. It shows how much we are still lacking behind. It is also very internationalized as there are lots of Western food chain franchises and shopping malls with branded clothes. There are also lots of people and cars everywhere. This is so unlike shopping malls in Penang, which are such an eye-sore. There are hardly any shops left open, especially in Prangin Mall and Komtar.
I don't think I can ever drive in Bangkok. They drive so close that you can literally roll down the window and touch the car next to you. You would have to squeeze in to get into a lane or else you'll be stucked there forever. The jam is also very bad that it can take 5 times longer to get to a place during peak times. We took cab to get to places and they are very cheap. They don't charge extra for 4 people either.
