Bangkok - An Ideal Tourist Destination
Bangkok is the capital of Thailand and is also known as the "city of angels". Very few are aware that Bangkok began as a small trading centre and port community.
While Bangkok signifies many things to many people, it is considered a shopping haven for most! Siam Square is central Bangkok's famous shopping district, which has several large malls and side shops storing both local and international brands. Shopping in Bangkok is thrilling because you seem to be able to find whatever you want. The hustle of the street markets is what grabs your attention though. Here, you will get anything from gorgeous antiques to the latest mobile phones and designer jewellery. It is advisable to polish your bargaining skills, as it is something that will be of good use while street shopping!
Bangkok is listed among the top 20 tourist hotspots in the world, with a majority of the foreign tourists arriving in Bangkok. There's more to Bangkok than meets the eye, where there is a confluence of ancient art history and modern high-rises. Beautifully designed temples are all over Bangkok with Wat Phra Kaew and Wat Pho being the two most fantastic. Other famous tourist destinations within Bangkok are the national museum, Temple Mount, the Grand Palace, the Dusit Hall and the Zoo.
Apart from 24 hour shopping and crowded tourist sites, Bangkok also offers a lot more. As a tourist visiting Bangkok, you can arrange for a guide or join a tour so that you are guided around the other attractive tourist sites. Two of the famous tourist sites are Sukhumvit road and Khao San Road.
Another famous place to visit while in Bangkok is the Floating Market. It is a must-see, as you sit in long tail boats as they guide you through all their wares. The floating market is worth all the noise and the chaos and is a one hour's drive southwest of Bangkok. Other places to visit are the Koh Kret, which is a small island on the Chao Phraya River and takes you away from the busy central Bangkok.
Those visiting Bangkok often visit a place known as Pattaya. It is one of the nearest seaside cities located close to Bangkok, which at the same time is also famous for its hedonistic nightlife! Also, it is close enough to go for an overnight stay

In my opinion every person in life should be best friends. They will support and help and understand you in difficult times. And thankfully I have таеие friends, Arai and Kuandyk. Since we're in the same class we spend a lot of time together. We Arai very similar. Not for their appearance and character. She is very kind and sympathetic. Very positive. Will always help in difficult minute and support. And even Arai loves to sing as I do. She has a nice voice. I think that friendship is the most important thing - trust and honesty. And Arai has all those qualities. I can always nah rely on and trust. And she's very smart and beautiful. The Arai expressive and big eyes, wavy dark hair. She is of medium height. And Kuandyk a very positive and cheerful. He is very kind and helpful. Kuandyk can always help. And when you have a mood he always cheer. it is very similar to Mignon from the cartoon "Despicable me". Kinder Kuandyk I don't see it.

Ураган Катрина.
29 августа, 2005 года, на город Новый Орлеан обрушился один из самых мощных ураганов, который когда либо видели. Ураган назвали Катрина. Когда ураган обрушился на город, немного людей были в помещениях, пока остальные люди были вне, что бы понаблюдать за происходящим. Многие жители покинули город, уехав на и без того загруженных дорогах.
Что такое Ураганы?
Ураганы это штормы с высокой скоростью ветра и сильным дождем. Они образуютсы над Атлантикой и Тихим океаном, когда штормы появляются на теплым океаном. Когда они находятся на земле они могут разрушать здания.
Как пострадал Новый Орлеан?
Город не был защищен? На этот вопрост ответит каждый. Дамбы - это натуральные или искусственные стены, которые останавливают реки во время наводнения или шторма, такие как Миссисипи, проект был обдуман. Но этот проект не был построен перед настоящим ураганом. Новый Орлеан не мог ничего поделать со скоростью ветра 200 км/ч. Сотни и тысячи домов были затоплены, многие здания были разрушены или изменена их конструкция. Тысячи людей погибли и остались бездомными. Это было самое большое бедствие за последние года.
Факт!
Имена, даваемые ураганам сменяют каждые 6 лет. Когда ураган очень развитый, Всемирная Метеорологическа Организация может остановить использование этого имени и сменить его на другое. Это произошло с Катриной.
Как перестроился город?
Новый Орлеан известен джазом и чувством юмора. После урагана Катрина, люди вместе начали перестраивать город. Перестройка разрушенных здание не была простой задачей. Это заняло много времени и много тяжелой работы. Дома и школы были перестроены. И работа продолжалась. Никто не знак когда это закончиться.
