This is Bangkok !

A small selection of photos that I think shows what Bangkok is : a never sleeping city always very disparate where modernity and tradition, rich people and beggars, spirituality and frivolity, concrete streets and small canals, luxury and simplicity come together in a quite harmonious blend.

Obviously, the choice among my hundreds pictures made in the Thai capital city shows only a small part of what Bangkok is. Those who already know the city will probably have many more images coming in their minds and those who do not know Bangkok already may be, I hope, more eager to discover Bangkok and travel in Thailand.

Because coming here is exotic and life is exciting and it will teach you a lot about materialism, patience, living the moment and the small simple joys of life…
