Traffic in Bangkok(曼谷交通)
BTS, Skytrain, Taxis and Tuk Tuks in
Bangkok
Yes, Bangkok's traffic is notorious with good reason. It's very easy to get caught up in gridlock traffic any time of the day or night, and waste a lot of valuable time in the process. However, with excellent and modern public transport systems in place, Bangkok is surprisingly easy to navigate your way around.
The Skytrain (BTS) and underground (MRT) rail systems connect the main shopping, entertainment and business areas of the city, while river taxis and express boats can be used to explore many historic sites and attractions at the riverside. Taxis are cheap and appear on virtually every corner at almost any time. Tuk-tuks, once a big Bangkok attraction, are slowly disappearing in favour of more comfortable transport, but are still worth a ride at least once.
曼谷市的交通工具极为发达,交通网极为完善,铁路和公路都以曼谷为中心,通往全国各地。往来既方便又便宜。但市内交通相当拥挤,有“塞车世界第一”雅号。故如何避开高峰,巧妙处理“堵车”,是高效率游览曼谷的关键。
曼谷拥有遍及全市每个地区的公共汽车路线网,共有200余条路线, 空调计程车或出租汽车则数不胜数。此外,三轮笃笃车(TUK TUK),样子奇特,价格低廉(上车前记得和司机说好价钱);出租摩托车,车资较便宜,且车速快(一定记得戴好头盔,做足心理准备)。
铁路:可从曼谷抵达泰国各主要城市。曼谷全国火车总站发出往泰国北部、东北部和南部的特快列车,国际列车(如往新、马)、长途车(如往清迈)及逢星期六、日举办的旅游专线火车都可在这里查询、订位。曼谷东线火车站,每日有班车开往泰国东部;南线铁路总站,每天有慢车开往泰国南部。
长途巴士:曼谷市有东行、南行和北行3个长途汽车总站,通过发达的长途汽车路线网,可抵达国内各个城市。沿3号公路,2小时30分可抵达芭堤雅;沿4号和402号公路,7个小时可抵达普吉;沿1号和106号公路,9小时可抵达清迈。
汽车、游船出租 也可租用私家车旅游。国际知名的出租汽车公司,如Hertz和Avis,都在泰国设有办事处,提供自行驾驶或附司机服务的租车项目。可以电话租车、租船,高、中、低档都有,十分方便。
