Only foreigners call Thailand’s capital city is Bangkok. In Thai, its real name is Krung Thep.
But, even that’s a shortened version of the city’s full name: The offical name of Bangkok is one of the longest names in the world!
Krung Thep Mahanakhon Amon Rattanakosin Mahinthara Ayuthaya Mahadilok Phop Noppharat Ratchathani Burirom. It's a tongue twister hahaha!!

Thank you for sharing this fun fact about Bangkok's full name!

Indeed, it's fascinating how language and culture can lead to such unique and intricate names!

That so nice

Another knowledge about your country hehehe

my tongue got tangled while trying to read out loud the real name of Bangkok TT

I can't say it right hahaha

I'm glad to be a foreigner, Bangkok is way easier to say/pronounce
