my left hand side Chao Phraya River, the mother river of Thailand This is where I am now a legendary hotel in Bangkok, Thailand Very historical More than 140 years called Mandarin Oriental But locals in Thailand are more accustomed to calling it Oriental Hotel This hotel is amazing Not only has a long history It has been rated as one of the top ten hotels in the world by many magazines Such a good hotel Let's finish this breakfast Experience what it's like to live here In fact, what this hotel originally looked like it's this two-story building behind me Don't look at this building, even though it's very small But it created many firsts in Thailand For example, the first hotel with an elevator The first hotel to have electricity Why was it the first hotel to receive electricity? It's just because there is no electricity, how to use the elevator? because of electricity so it is also the first hotel that can light up light bulbs At that time, only the Thai royal family had electric light And then there are, for example, the first ones to lay carpets Be the first to post wallpapers etc. Many firsts The key is that the most interesting thing about this hotel is it crosses the chao praya river A part here and a part there Look, turn around It just so happens that this boat is their ferry boat if you need to go to the gym, Thai restaurant and hydrotherapy spa everyone must take this boat sawadika Please be careful with it Take a boat from the hotel opposite, this is a shopping mall Shopping is also very convenient This hotel is also a gourmet hotel If you are a foodie You're right to live here Because this hotel has many restaurants For example, Chinese restaurant, Japanese food and Thai food Michelin-level French cuisine There are also Italian dishes and so on No matter which country you are from Coming here will always suit your appetite Another thing to say This hotel is also the first in Thailand The original jazz bar It’s been more than 70 years now So just pick one out It’s all full of history Although this hotel is very luxurious But it doesn’t occupy a very large area There are mainly two buildings One this building and one this building Another thing to say If you just got off the plane The cars we arrange to pick you up at the airport are all BMW 7 series This elevator is the first elevator in Bangkok Of course, they have all been renovated now But this space can be seen to be extremely small This is where the first elevator is In the past, it should have been like a sliding door It's like a rolling shutter that pulls back and forth Get out of this ancient elevator There are many photos in this gallery Introducing the history of this hotel this is worth a look This is what it looked like before 1887 Then continue to renovate and expand This is what it looks like now It's all about the hotel's history There are many celebrities staying in this hotel For example, politicians from various countries President of the United States, President of France, President of Italy Needless to say this There are also celebrities like Audrey Hepburn And our Chinese Leslie Cheung Leslie Cheung especially loves coming to this hotel And Michael Jackson Michael Jackson was here too This photo focuses on They are political leaders and political celebrities from all over the world All have been here For example, just point to someone This is Nixon Why do so many celebrities come to this hotel?
