The Chao Phraya River is the largest river in Thailand, running through the whole territory of Thailand from north to south, it is the "mother river" of Thailand, originating in the Shan State Plateau in northwest Thailand, flowing to the flat areas in the south, forming the Chao Phraya River Delta, and finally flowing into Bangkok Bay, with a total length of 1,352 kilometers and a basin area of 170,000 square kilometers, Bangkok, the capital of Thailand, is located at the mouth of the Chao Phraya River.

When it comes to the largest river in Thailand, Mr. Ding is still very touched.

Mr. Ding introduced to Zhou Sen: "Shangyuan is formed by the confluence of two large rivers from north to south, the Bin River and the Nan River, after the confluence of the two rivers in Nakhon Sawan, it is called the Chao Phraya River, and soon after the confluence from the right bank, the largest tributary of the Suphan Buri River, this big river is parallel to the main stream, flows into the Bangkok Bay in the south, and the main trunk of the Chao Phraya River continues to flow south, running through the southwest of Thailand, entering the Bangkok Bay near Bangkok, and flowing into the South China Sea. ”

"There are some interesting stories about the name of this big river, the Chao Phraya River is the common name of the Chao Phraya River in the Chinese, and it is called the 'Chao Phraya River' in Thai, which is the highest rank of knighthood under the Sakdina system in feudal Thailand, which is equivalent to a duke. ”

"It is the largest and longest river in Thailand, hence its name. ”

Zhou Sen nodded, "Yes, this big river is very famous, and many famous scenic spots in Thailand are also near this big river, and this big river is known as the 'Venice of the East'." ”

"As the mother river of Thailand, this big river not only provides water for the nearby residents, but also feeds the local people with drinking water, of course, this big river not only provides water for the local Thai people, but also allows people to thrive here and reproduce from generation to generation. ”

"The valley has a vast coastal plain, many tributaries in the lower reaches of the region, and a dense river network, which is the main agricultural area of Thailand, producing rice, corn, cotton, sugarcane, etc., and the main cities of Bangkok and Thonburi are located in the estuary area, which is the largest industrial and transportation center in Thailand. ”

Mr. Ding said: "The river is not only a waterway, it is a waterway, the land route is important, the waterway is also very important, and there are many merchant ships coming and going here. ”

"Let's take a look at the geographical location, each river has its own geographical location, has its own characteristic resources, some are created by nature, the creator of nature, we human beings want to create this natural environment in nature, and then build bridges artificially, build surrounding facilities, if the surrounding facilities are built well, make good use of them, it is also a great development and promotion of the economy, I think this point of Thailand's experience, or has its characteristics, but also worth studying. ”

Zhou Sen listened to Mr. Ding's explanation, and felt very interesting, this big river, Zhou Sen can also find the introduction of it through the Internet, but before looking at the introduction, just stay in the text, and did not see it with his own eyes, that feeling and experience are different, if you have the opportunity, you should go abroad to see more foreign countries, and see the natural scenery and urban construction of other countries.

The northeastern part of Thailand is a mountainous area with towering mountains, and from west to east, there are Tenglao Mountain, Thani Thawong Mountain, Kun Dan Mountain, and Luang Mountain running from north to south.

Between these mountain ranges, there are also many branches, the Bin River, the Wang River, the Yong River and the Nan River, which constitute the upper reaches of the Chao Phraya River, the four rivers Bin, Wang, Yong and Nan run through the mountains, and many valleys have developed into fertile plains due to the long-term alluvial action of the rivers, among which the famous ones are Chiang Mai, Lampang, Nanfu and other plains.

This kind of intermountain basin, due to its gentle terrain, suitable climate and convenient irrigation, has always been the center of economic development in the northern mountainous areas, with dense population and abundant products.

Looking at this big river, Zhou Sen is also very understanding, he also thinks that he should learn more geographical knowledge, when he used to go to school, he felt that history, geography and these two courses need to be memorized, memorize these place names, and then go to see the test center that needs to be tested in the exam, after coping with the exam, he feels that the rote knowledge is useless, and most of the students have long forgotten about that knowledge.

Only when you need to use it, will you feel that you didn't learn these two courses well when you were a student, Zhou Sen listened to Mr. Ding's introduction, while sighing to himself, he used to travel to Thailand with his family, but the time was limited, just went to a few scenic spots in a hurry, and he still didn't feel that he had a thorough understanding of the country of Thailand.

In the past, there were not many Chinese people who could go abroad, most of the Chinese stayed in their homeland, due to economic reasons, relatively poor, no more money to travel, go out to study, go abroad to see, Zhou Sen felt that he could have the opportunity to go to the countries along the "Belt and Road" to have a look, this opportunity is really rare, not only can in-depth field investigation, understand the local history and culture, but also comparative research, look at the advantages and resources of other countries, think about which can be worth learning and learning?

Mr. Ding introduced to Zhou Sen, "Chiang Mai, the second largest metropolis in Thailand, is located in the Chiang Mai Basin, which is the largest rice distribution center in northern Thailand. ”

"After the teak is fell, it is exiled in various rivers and concentrated in the North Prakan before it is transported south or exported, so the North Prakan is the largest teak distribution center in the Chao Phraya River. ”

"Teak, Mr. Ding, our Chinese audience is not very familiar with this wood species, can you tell us more about what teak is?" Zhou Sen asked.

"Okay, teak is known as the national treasure of Myanmar, so the price is quite expensive, also known as annatto, purple teak, blood tree, etc., is a deciduous or semi-deciduous large tree, the tree is tall, the bark is brown or gray, the branches are quadrangular, the outer skin has stellate hairs, and gray-yellow stellate hairs are more common. ”

"Mr. Ding, can teak only grow in areas with a relatively high climate?"

Teacher Ding nodded, "Yes, teak is a tropical tree species, requiring a higher temperature, vertical distribution is mostly seen in low hills and plains below 700-800 meters above sea level, can be used in medicine, but also to make high-end furniture flooring, indoor and outdoor decoration materials, teak flooring is also very common in the decoration of our Chinese family, many families like teak flooring, the color is very uniform, and durable, can withstand the weight of adults walking on it, the quality is still very good, and the reputation is also very good." ”

"Yes, the floor of our house is also made of teak flooring, the price is still acceptable, not very expensive, mid-range, very good after decoration, I am also very satisfied, this teak flooring is very practical. ”

"Yes, teak is very famous in Thailand and Myanmar, and the price is very favorable when you buy it in Thailand, I know the owner of the teak business, and I have introduced several friends to buy teak furniture and teak flooring, if you have friends who need it, I can also help introduce!"

"Hahaha, Mr. Ding is really good, very knowledgeable, very good person, very humorous, very knowledgeable, and helpful, it's really good to know you!"
