A beautiful Lumpini Park of Bangkok Thailand

                    

A beautiful green lung within a concrete jungle of a busy city nearby MRT Lumphini Station and Si Lom Station Bangkok. I bought an MRT traveler card that cost 120/-Thai bath. My intention is going around and searching for what Bangkok has to offer rather than the commercial shopping districts or those places that crowded with people with special needs or interests.

I came to know this place mainly by the name of "Lumbini"at the Shukhumvit MRT station and its sound similarly to the birthplace of the Lord Buddha in Nepal. Lumpini Park is a multi-purpose park. Many activities are provided for citizens and tourists. The park is a green area. There are a lot of trees, beautiful flowers, large lakes, and various types of animals.

There are not many tourists today and surprisingly the park is full of welcoming energy, with its natural beauty, fresh and clean air and most importantly is surrounded by many trees. I was amazed that I had encountered of a "surprised" visitor , the monitor Lizard.

Lumpini Park was created in the 1920s by King Rama VI on royal property.This place was a museum, where many products and natural resources were shown, then after World War 1 , it was rebuilt into the first park in Bangkok. A statue of the king stands at the southwestern entrance to the park. It was named after Lumbini, the birthplace of the Buddha in Nepal,and at the time of its creation stood on the outskirts of the city.

An amazing Bangkok Thailand tour

My very first visit to Bangkok Thailand and with many pleasant surprises beginning from the moment when I arrived at the Airport on December 26, 2014. Due to a busy travel scheduled, I will update more news of visiting  an amazing Bangkok Thailand when I have more free time.

Hinduism widely influences in Thailand

Vishnu The Hindu God

Samudra Manthan is one of the many attractions of Suvarnabhumi Airport Bangkok Thailand. In Thailand is nearly 94%-95% Theravada Buddhist, but surprisingly that's strongly influenced by Hinduism and it is noticeably almost in every corner of Thailand are particularly in Bangkok. 

This is my first visit to Bangkok and the first representation of Thai's culture will be the iconic statue of Samudra Manthan or Churning of the Ocean of Milk.

This iconic statue is one of the best known episodes in the Hindu mythology. Samudra Manthan or Churning of the ocean depicted in the bas-relief show Vishnu in the center of his turtle Named Avatar Kurma and below are the demons or the Asura ( on the left) and Devas (on the right). 

The Devas ( On the right hand) 

The churning of the ocean of milk was an elaborate process.Mount Mandara was used as the churning rod, and Vasuki, the king of serpents or the Naga, who abides on Shiva's neck, became the churning rope. 

The demons demanded to hold the head of the snake, while the gods taking advice from Vishnu, agreed to hold its tail. 

                     The Demons Asuras (On the left)

As a result the demons were poisoned by fumes emitted by Vasuki. Despite this, the gods and demons pulled back and forth on the snake's body alternately, causing the mountain to rotate, which in turn churned the ocean. 

However, once the mountain was placed on the ocean, it began to sink. Vishnu, in the form of a turtle kurma, came to their rescue and supported the mountain on his back.
