新素材 人文地理 Bangkok has become the No.1 destination in the world for tourists. According to a recent survey carried out by an important company, more tourists are choosing to visit the capital of Thailand than New York City and London. The reason for this recent rise in visitors is the increasing number of wealthy people living in the Asian region. Perhaps the popularity of Bangkok is no surprise since it has a rich history and there are many things for tourists to see and do.
There are many wats(佛寺) in Bangkok. In fact, you could probably spend a whole two - week vacation trying to discover all the beautiful wats in the city. Wat Arun is one of the most visited wats in Bangkok. It has a tall central tower covered by porcelain. When the sun rises in the morning, a beautiful and amazing effect is created and seeing it is an unforgettable experience for most visitors. The interior(内部) of the building is just exciting, too. Beautifully painted murals(壁画) line the walls and wonderful ceramics are on display.
The floating markets are another tourist hot spot in Bangkok. These are makeshift markets where people sell things from their boats on the river to shoppers on the street. Vendors might peddle anything, from old trinkets(廉价小饰品) to delicious food. Tourists can also take a boat to travel and follow the markets around the city.
Travellers who get tired of the constant noise and crowds can also get outside the city to experience the beautiful countryside. Hua Hin is a resort that sits along the ocean to the south of the capital. It has a tropical climate throughout the year and offers a peaceful spot to relax and go for a dip in the ocean.
