Don't take a bus or taxi when commuting to get off work, it's even more congested than Taipei.

Thailand is a great place for travel. Bangkok offers subways, air trains, buses, taxis and tuk-tuks, so it’s not lost to Taipei at all, and the comfort and convenience of the MRT make it easier for travelers to plan their itineraries. flexibility.When I always wanted to immigrate to Thailand, the rush hour conditions often extinguished this enthusiasm.

※ Taxi, bus
Taking a bus in Taipei is very common, but you need to be mentally prepared to take a bus in Bangkok, because their bus system is not as easy to check as in Taipei, and some buses do not have air-conditioning. I believe it is for those of us who are used to air-conditioning. Taipei vulgar, it's really hot and sweaty!

However, taxis provide convenience to passengers to a certain extent.Don't worry about running into a ripped off taxi in Bangkok (Correction, in February 2010, I encountered a suspected player who jumped the watch and asked me to make a very expensive fare of 2 baht!) It is true that they will be very honest to jump the meter billing If you call a car from a restaurant, you can also ask the service staff to inform the transporter where you are going. It will be more secure.

Some of the generals are not very familiar with English. It might be better to give him a map (English only). It is recommended that you bring a map with addresses and place names in Thai. It is very easy to use when taking a taxi.

All taxis have their own licenses, and the fare is not very expensive, so we will ask the transporter to stop looking for it, which is an extra tip.
(The PS driver himself is more handsome!)

There are also buses in Bangkok with doors open, and passengers don’t seem to worry about falling.

※ Tuk Tuk
Southeast Asian countries will have this kind of transportation. The front end is a small motorcycle, and the rear seat is modified to satisfy the curiosity of tourists visiting the local city. It is fun to take a tuk-tuk in Bangkok, but you should avoid it. During the commute to get off work, so as not to be blackened by the bus when you return to the hotel.

Don't take it too late. After all, I have heard of tourists being ripped off. Basically, tuk-tuk fare is more than 100 baht is expensive, because taxis don't have this price!Don't be a fool~

Tuk-tuk will also provide the driver’s license. Many people in Bangkok’s tourist night market will ask you "Would you like to see the Sexy Show?", or if you want to go to the floating market, and provide relevant photos and information on the car.There are also many motorcycles parked on the roadside in downtown Bangkok. I heard from friends that those are similar to tuk-tuks and taxis. Most of them are Thai people. In order to get to a short distance, the price is about 50 baht at a time, which is convenient for people in a hurry. (I often see girls in Bangkok wearing miniskirts, riding sideways on a motorcycle on the side of the road to catch up to work.)

The first time I took a tuk-tuk, I felt my heart and courage flew out. Because it was a little late at night, there was no car, so the driver got up and speeded up, and gave me a tail flick. Let Wendy and I really worry about where they will be robbed, and also think about not bargaining @@ if they knew it. Fortunately, we went to the hotel safely...

I personally think that taking a tuk-tuk in Thailand is a fun experience. In the past few years, I have found that the tuk-tuk is getting newer and newer. It is actually very reliable to sit up. Therefore, we often choose to take the tuk-tuk after shopping in the night market. Tuk-tuk back to the hotel, the novelty of transportation that is different from that of other cities, will be memorable.

In Chiang Mai, you can ask for a price of 20 baht per person, and we + the driver total 6 people in a tuk-tuk for that trip.
(It is recommended that Bangkok should not be so crowded, it is quite dangerous ~ there are more cars here.)
