You must see the Bangkok floating market
Bangkok is an awesome city to see. We will talk about Bangkok attractions and especially the floating market Bangkok. Lumpinee Boxing Stadium is a great place to head to if you want a fun night out in Bangkok. The passionate fans who come to watch Muay Thai fights make for an intoxicating atmosphere. Run by the Royal Thai Army, the arena holds contests every Tuesday, Friday and Saturday night. Because winning is very prestigious the fights are fiercely contested. The tightly packed seats are close to the ring. Lumpinee is one of the only places where gambling is permitted, so the fans are even more passionate as they have money riding on the fight.
Sheer luck (or lack thereof) makes this attraction special. During the 1950s, the East Asiatic Company purchased the land around the temple. A condition of the sale was the removal of a plaster statue of Buddha, but the statue proved too heavy for the crane being used. The cable parted and the figure was dropped, being left overnight where it fell. It happened to be in the rainy season, and when next morning some monks walked past, they noticed a glint of gold shining through the plaster. The coating was removed, revealing a 3.5 m Buddha cast from 5.5 tons of solid gold. All attempts to trace the origin of this priceless statue have so far failed, but it is assumed to date from the Sukhothai period, when marauding invaders threatened the country and its treasures, and it became common practice to conceal valuable Buddha figures beneath a coating of plaster. No one knows how it came to Bangkok, but here it stands available for the admiration of visitors from all over the world.
