Sometimes we think this is venice of Thailand . There is the one area that we will invite you to visit Bangpoo ( บางปู )

Bangpoo – the one popular sightseeing in Samutprakarn . For Thai Language “Bang” mean city or town and “Poo” mean Crab ,so the meaning of Bangpoo is city of crab or area of crab .Because Bangpoo has a long beach along Thai gulf with a plenty of natural wetland ,mangrove forest and small fish & crab .But it’s a mud beach no golden sand .

And today Bangpoo is the famous sightseeing that most family appoint for lunch and dinner ,it’s good view atmosphere and sunset. The popular sightseeing that we recommend you to visit is Quatermaster General’s Department of Royal Thai Army restaurant .

Do you know what is a favorite seagull food ?

It’s strange ,……..the seagull at Bangpoo like ………….“  a  fried skin pork “ ,only 10 baht / small pack.

;-P

At the end of this pier is Quatermaster General’s Department of Royal Thai Army restaurant that you can meet good test ,fresh seafood to serve travelers for satisfied meal .Not only a restaurant on Sunday because there will be held a special 70’s event for dancing in big ballroom of Sala Sukjai .There will have music with a big band and dancing in 70’s event style – back to the past again .Bangpoo Resort has Bungalow for tourists who want to stay over nights.

It may be difficult to pronunciation but try it again slow “KI-EW“ .Yes “KIEW“ is green .We will say “SI-KIEW” mean Green Color .There are a plenty green land in Thailand.Because Thailand is a lot of plants to grow both of vegetable ,fruits ,etc.You will fresh when go to see big green land.

Yellow :we say “Leung” .

This is the one of color that  difficult to say .”SI-LEUNG“ is the popular color in THAILAND .You can see many people wear a yellow T-shirt , dress .Because we love and respect our KING . This year is the anniversay 80th birthday ,we all celebrate for our king .
