Ok cool, be sure to prepare some sort of protection for your camera. Most of the folks playing with water during songkran aren't very attentive to what you have with you (like cameras, etc). I dun think they will stop you from taking photos though There was only one occasion when they restricted photography from high vantage points, that was during the red shirt protest. Now there aren't any bans that I know of.

yup, i going to standby rain covers for my cam ;p

Lovely Set of pictures.
I too have been traveling to & fro BKK for work for the past 1 year plus.
I would say this set of picture brought in another perspective of Thailand that i have yet to explore or seen.

Your photos and narrative gives additional insight to each locale. I found myself look slower over each of them and reading the text.

Thanks for sharing :thumbsup:

Lumphini Park - Also known as "Suan Lumphini", where "Suan" simply means "Park" in Thai. This is a place where both locals and expatriates like to hang out for activities in the evening. People go there for the either jogging or joining in to the mass aerobics & line dances. The park was closed during the Red Shirt protest period where it was used as a protest site. After the riots have cleared, the park has been restored to it previous state.

Wat Phra Kaew - Wat Phra Kaew, (Full name: Wat Phra Si Rattana Satsadaram) is more commonly known as "The Temple of the Emerald Buddha" is considered the most prestigious and sacred buddhist temple in Thailand. The main building is the central ubosoth, which houses the statue of Emerald Buddha. The legendary history of this Buddha image is traced to India, five centuries after the Lord Buddha attained Nirvana, till it was finally enshrined in Bangkok at the Wat Phra Kaew temple in 1782 during Rama I's reign.

Saphan Phut - Saphan Phut is not one of the major markets where most of the tourists go. The prices are cheaper and the market is really more for the local Thai people. Well known as a flower wholesale market, you'd find the place extremely crowded on the eves of any major buddhist festivals. Besides flowers, you'd find clothings, accessories and decorative items at relatively cheap prices sold there at the night market.
