Mini Siam : Thailand in mini format

AppId is over the quota
If you are in a car heading to Pattaya, once you get to Naklua, try to look to your left outside the window. You will see two giants with big teeth holding a mace. And above him you will see the sight Mini Siam. Yes, that is what I will tell you about today. But know you may still wonder what the heck is that giant, right? It's a character in the epic Ramakian, which I think has very high cultural value and should be preserved to the future generation. Thai kids these days are not interested in such things anymore. Though it's in the Thai book that every Thai student has to learn, but they just learn for the exam then forget all about it. Let's come back to the topic, if you want to know more about the Ramakian, I will write an article about it when I have time.
Mini Siam or Mueng Jum long, this is what Thai people call, is a re-creation of famous buildings or tourist attractions in Thailand in mini format, like Wat Phra Kaew, the most famous temple in Thailand, or even structures from the past, like Ayutthaya in its full before destroyed by Burma. Thailand's attractions aren't the only things you will get to see here, but there are famous places or structures from all over the world, like the France's Eifel tower or The Opera House in Australia. Some of you may have seen these in real already, but when I was a kid, I got so excited each time my mother brought me here. What I want to say is that if you bring children with you, they could have their fun here.
And if you go there in the evening, there is a thai dancing show from 18 - 21 pm. Now don't think about the Agogo Dancing you see in the bars here in Pattaya, that's not it. It's the traditional dancing, which was taught from generation to generation. You won't see it elsewhere in this world, so if you are already here, you shouldn't miss this opportunity or else you will regret it.
How to get there is not difficult, because Mini Siam is at the Sukhumvit Road, which is to main Road from Bangkok. The admission fee is 300 Baht or about 10 dollars, which isn't much in comparison to what you will get to see. And kids get a discount, but don't remember anymore how much.
Oh and the last time I was there, which wasn't long ago, there is a market beside Mini Siam. What they sell there was really cheap, because it's a "Klong Tom Market", originally it's a market for second hand product, but nowadays it's known as a market for cheap things like clothes, toys or tools. Beside that you can buy something to eat here, but don't expect service like in a restaurant XD. There are fast foods like Pad Thai or grilled meatballs, which is one of my favorite things to eat. But be careful, if you can't eat spicy food, then don't take the sauce, but if you want to try, it's up to you, it's your tongue that will get numb afterwards not mine XD
