A young Thai man watches the sunrise as our train approaches the capital of Thailand: Krung Thep (กรุงเทพ), which roughly translates to 'City of Angels' many Thais that don't live in Bangkok only know it by the Thai name which is actually the longest name for a place in the Guiness Book of World Records, Krung Thep Mahanakhon Amon Rattanakosin Mahinthara Ayuthaya Mahadilok Phop Noppharat Ratchathani Burirom Udomratchaniwet Mahasathan Amon Piman Awatan Sathit Sakkathattiya Witsanukam Prasit. Most Thais learn this name with the help of a famous song made to help Thais remember the full name of their biggest and most important city.
