    For anyone pronounce it for me? :) Kinda pity the taxi drivers in Thailand especially they have to wait 10 minutes at least for their destination to be correctly pronounced completely. Now I know why Bangkok road traffic was one of the worse in the world.....they take enough time telling each other where to go to. :)

    "Not surprisingly, only a handful of Thais can remember such a mouthful, although the abbreviated translation of the whole is a relatively brief Jewelled city of the god Indra. However, most Thais simply refer to it as Krung Thep, City Angels."

    So yeah, none of them actually call it that on a daily basis.
