When traveling to Saudi Arabia for umrah, the pilgrims will pay a visit to Medina and stay there for a few days. However, visiting Medina is not obligatory. But, no moslems would skip a chance to visit the city of our beloved Prophet Muhammad Shallallahu ‘alaihi Wa Sallam. This is the city where Prophet Muhammad Shallallahu ‘alaihi Wa Sallam lived after hijra from Mecca.
Three years ago (July 2013), I went to Bangkok. It was my first time going there, and I couldn’t say it was a vacation. Liverpool FC had a tour in Bangkok, my friends and I caught them there. We stayed at Plaza Athenee Hotel, the same hotel where the players stayed. Well, at that time I still run a groupie’s life.
Of course, I’d also like to see Bangkok as a tourist. But unfortunately, I only have a limited time left because of those LFC things. It’s not possible for me to visit the famous Grand Palace or the temples like Wat Po and Wat Arun. I decided to feel the life of this Thailand’s capital from its famous river, Chao Phraya.
