Dude iove your channel! When i visit Bangkok in february22 lets do lunch. My treat.

[@jeffcahill5722]

I downloaded it a few days ago and headed straight to Nun's Coffee Station. Still there!

[@Thailandforever]

You made my day next Friday: Erawan museum, Ancient City and finish with Sky bar ! 😉😍🇹🇭

[@ThailandThomas]

That main room of the Erawan museum is just epic, I can just lay on the floor and stare at the celling for hours. I love this place, Chris. Great video. Thanks to you and mark for putting lhis place on the list.

[@porpaemuuntuup2912]

Erawan Museum : The same owner as The Ancient City in Samut Prakan and The Sanctuary of Truth in Pattaya

[@brianbarry6961]

Culture with a capital C! Enjoy it when you give the historical aspect to a place. Keep on rocking! 👍🏼

[@hughpowell2412]

Chris as you said spending 10 minutes a day is the my days highlight !

[@BOLDista]

Amazing place

[@WellRoundedMBS]

love them all so far

[@deband1473]

This is like a christmas calender! A new suprise each day :) nice work - cheers!

[@IdeaStudioBKK]

Glad you enjoyed this place, bro. this is one of my favorite locations just south of the city, and I love that you took the BTS. For me, this is a once in a great while location to visit. It's stunning and the art is very unique in a lot of ways. There was another youtuber (An ignorant, douchey, British guy) who complained about the art here not being very nice here... clearly earning his ignorant status. Luckily the world knows we can count on higher standards and quality from you.

[@streetfoodquest4198]

I know who you are refering to, and I agree with your assessment. hahahaha. Also, yes, Chris is the BEST in Thailand!

[@Baleur]

Fools talk a lot.. Wise men listen.

[@coryudon3350]

Love that place

[@WanderlustReports]

Great place to visit! Glad you mentioned Ancient Siam, very beautiful place that might have been on this Top 25 list too!

[@simonjacksparrow]

Beautiful

[@BobFisher.]

These videos get more and more interesting everyday.

[@skc3000]

At the other end of the BTS Green Line (Ratchayothin Station),there is a 30 storeys building named Elephant Tower (Tuk Chang). So, the BTS links the two giant elephants of Bangkok.

[@user-oc1xv1ru8x]

สวยมาก ค่ะ เป็นคนไทยแท้ๆ.ยังไม่เคยเลย.ค่ะ.ขอบคุณ.คุณที่พาชม ค่ะ

[@Stephen.Palmer_666]

What an amazing place! Excellent vid Chris!

[@RoOnTheGo]

Hi Chris, the same person whoe made TheTthree Headed Elephant made also The Sanctuary of Truth in Pattaya. I've seen more than 300 temples in Thailand, but The Sanctuary of Truth is the most amazing and still not finished

[@irenemckay6375]

I love your videos. They are showing me so many things about Bangkok I didn't know even though I have been here several times.

[@stephs1476]

I had no clue about this lol neither did my husband who is from Thailand! Definitely going to squeeze this one into our itinerary for January with family.

[@davidrimmer7422]

Maybe tomorrow is Jim Thompson House. Thanks Chris, this is a great series to follow

[@mohammadhasan3382]

My favorite youtuber as always. 👍🏻😁👍🏻

[@seankeay3000]

Another great tour… and a Kubrick!

[@patsfanb6]

Can't wait for tomorrow...

[@Wouter_apac]

Wauw....so beautiful. First time I learn about this. 🙌🏽❤️

[@RetiredWorkingForYou]

Glad it was helpful!

[@justinmcintosh6554]

That place is amazing!

[@RetiredWorkingForYou]

Super cool in there

[@danep1925]

You know, as your list grows now mine does. More places to visit next time I'm over. Awsome.

[@RoOnTheGo]

Hi Chris, it's nice that you made a film, because it's forbidden

[@jasonwilkinson3887]

Oh Lake Toba...now there's a trip I'll never forget. Another awesome trek and spot to visit. This place looks sweet.

[@RetiredWorkingForYou]

you know it brother. one of the best trips of my life!

[@ismith9826]

NICE ONE!

[@weekdaycycling]

The Chang Erawan Museum is part of the same owner as the Ancient City, Muang Boran, and Prasart Sachatham (in Pattaya). One good thing to consider is that the ticket will be discounted for expats in Thailand. I used to be there once. The interior was meticulously crafted in every detail.

[@chrisdavisunofficial]

Yet again, awesome video and another place that we will have to visit the next time we're in Bangkok. Thank you, sir!

[@RetiredWorkingForYou]

Thank YOU!

[@attlee1945]

Good going Chris- you must be knackered mate.

[@frankknudsen8879]

We are getting closer Chris.

[@ibrahimrahim8714]

Thank you for the inspiration ❤ I’ll be there next month

[@jasonwilkinson3887]

Nothing like a stroll through Khaosan.

[@sawasdeekhap]

I been there Its very beautiful and quiet

[@ProjectBangkok]

There's also a duel ticket where you get Chang Erawan and Ancient City as a cheaper bundle (Ancient City takes many hours though so keep that in mind)

[@profiterdupresent4322]

Great watch & video! Thankyou! Much appreciated. Definitely a good trip! 🌶️🌶️🇹🇭🇭🇲🍻🇭🇲🇹🇭🌶️🌶️ B man!

[@alfredoyaber8164]

[@RetiredWorkingForYou]

[@noreenneu837]

Definitely on my list for this year. Thanks for the tip about the ancient city. That was on my list as well and now know I can do them both on one trip. Also like the clear directions on how to get there…and as always like the little history lesson. Thanks Chris

[@marcjtdc]

This is absolutely incredible and mind blowing

[@JohnSolitude]

Great show as usual, not seen Erawan yet but looks pretty impressive. On the to-consider list for the next visit to BKK.

[@Dennis_Xplore]

[@RetiredWorkingForYou]

[@unclebitchie]

Cool. I remember hearing about this when it was under construction but this is my first time to see it in full. We'll have to mosey down there one of these visits...

[@D_R_Martin]

That's a pretty cool spot. I appreciate the effort it takes to do what you are doing. I hope you are able to get the much needed rest after.

[@jonsgrandal5741]

[@donchow274]

[@RetiredWorkingForYou]

Thanks for following along!

[@moxy666]

[@stoofaontour]

My man ❤

[@RetiredWorkingForYou]

Stooooooof!

[@Javy_Valen_Tain]

Hey Chris, I think number 14 will be a tour to Pattaya :D

[@mike-js1jj]

Good one. My wife and I tried going in 2008 using map quest 😂 needless to say we didn’t make it until our second try.

[@xx-uz2kz]

Whew I'm beat,. taking #14 off see u at #13

[@jomontanee]

Thank you so much Chris for showing us the public sky train to get there. Thank you Indonesians for no.15!!🙏💖

[@RetiredWorkingForYou]

of course!

[@krikat3485]

I wish I’d known about this museum when we were in Bangkok previously!

[@RetiredWorkingForYou]

It’s a goodie!

[@ShadowPandaLord]

You get a pretty cool view going by it on the BTS, but I’ve never been inside! Will get around to it one of these days.

[@bmwtraveladventure6919]

I love your channel, I'm coming to Bankok for the first time on January 22, 2024. Do you also have a video on how to rent a motorcycle?

[@laminehauke1170]

[@TheAirseaGo]

Please make a compilation of your Top 25 in a single video, after you're done with your Number 1. 😊👍

[@TRIPONTHIS]

Nice , interesting. Hell I'd give you an hour or more Chris.🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏How's the house construction going?

[@Jekena3d]

So this is at Samut prakan the acient city is.

[@MikeBenTravelstory]

Tomorrow its golden mount time 😊 ring a bell for us 🔔

[@TRIPONTHIS]

Just Spit balling Here, I'm more of a Hawaiian shirt kind of guy in hot weather . Any plans to get a short sleeve button up shirt in the merch?🙏🙏

[@swedishburrito5073]

❤️👍🍺

[@bunyakorn02]

sorry for the double pricing. We have the logic that Thai citizens already pay tax for the costs of maintaining things in our country. That's why some places allow the work permit or else to confirm that you already pay tax in Thailand to offer you the local ticket price

[@vgshwk]

Thanks Chris I’ve never liked places that do tier pricing where a foreigner pays nearly double or more than a local. Believe me I’ve done my fair share.

[@MissLoneTraveller]

Hi Samutprakarn is a province, not a district of Bangkok 😊

[@travissimpkins8840]

Been threr done that, and yes Teerock and I visted the acient city same day . I got attacked by a little barking dear.

[@JorgenD-original]

[@tedlennox4365]

You didn't show us the worlds largest Elephant Droppings @@@@@

[@paulboon1443]

Erawan soud like Elephant. And this from Hindu.

[@Romangelo]

Only in Thailand that you can see Buddha statues in a Hindu place like this... They mixed up two of the rival religions like it's nothing. Imagine having a Jesus statue in a mosque... that's what it is.

[@e-hoirossukon6581]

Thai people believe that if you get through the belly of an elephant, you will be lucky.
