March 9 – Medium

  There’s a lot to do in beautiful Bangkok, Thailand’s largest city. In the morning, make your way to a floating market. There, people sell things from boats! Next, go to the Grand Palace. Thai kings lived here for 150 years. Enjoy walking around the palace grounds and learning about its history. At night, walk around the busy streets of Bangkok. Taste some of the delicious local dishes.
