Bangkok (กรุงเทพมหานคร) is the capital and largest city of Thailand, and its political, economic, trade, transportation, cultural, scientific, and educational center. Thailand is known as the "Land of the Yellow Robes," with over 90% of its population practicing Buddhism; therefore, Bangkok is considered the "Buddhist Capital," and the headquarters of the World Fellowship of Buddhists is located in Bangkok.
Bangkok, located on the east bank of the Chao Phraya River, boasts the world's highest concentration of Buddhist temples, with over 400 temples of varying sizes. Strolling through the city, every step reveals a new vista: majestic pagodas, red-roofed temples, and the distinctive Thai-style fish-ridge roofs in red, green, and yellow hues, exuding a mystical oriental charm. Among Bangkok's many temples, the Temple of the Emerald Buddha, the Temple of the Reclining Buddha, and the Temple of the Golden Buddha are the most famous, considered Thailand's three national treasures.
The Thais call Bangkok "Krung Thep," meaning "City of Angels, Magnificent City, Eternal City of Gems, Indra's Indestructible City, the world's magnificent capital endowed with nine jewels, City of Joy, filled with majestic palaces symbolizing the heavenly abode of the incarnate god of rule, a city given by Indra and built by Vishnu." Bangkok's original name carries the beautiful dreams and glorious history of its time of construction.
Today, Bangkok is not only steeped in ancient history but also deeply favored by fashion. When you come to Bangkok, you will surely be captivated by its ubiquitous vibrancy and lively atmosphere.
