Corner View – Typical Souvenir from Thailand.

Welcome to Corner View for this week.

Thanks again to Jane for such an awesome idea.  Really – this is such a cool way to travel the world.

So this weeks theme is:  “A Typical Souvenir” from your corner, inspired by Epe. 

This was difficult.  So very difficult because Thailand is such a Tourist destination and well there is just so much offered as “typical” souvenirs.

Although I live here as an expat I consider myself  a tourist.  I get all wide eyed and excited when I visit the craft markets, or the side streets and all those touristy places that tourists head too. 

I have many pictures of beautiful stuff one would buy as souvenirs but I have only chosen  those as “typical”.

Things that when you see them will be evidence that you’ve been to Thailand.

elephants – notice their not white!!

Bencharong – Five colored porcelain.  These come in many different sizes and colors.

Monks (although I think these are specific to Burma- the color).  They crossed the border! 

  Buddha's palm and hanuman masks

a reclining Buddha

And even more Buddha’s and Monks. Different styles and poses.

So there you have it.  A few typical souvenirs from the Land of Smiles.

Happy travelling as you visit other Corner View bloggers.  Updated list of links is at Jane’s sidebar.
