Bangkok--28 Jul--ScottAsia Communications
Thousands of smiley-faced balloons were released into the skies above Bangkok as inviting symbols of friendship to entice travellers from around the world to visit the kingdom. This spectacular and memorable event took place on the first day of the Thailand Happiness: Street Festival extravaganza in Bangkok, which was held 25-26 July.
The Thailand Happiness: Street Festival was organised by the Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT) and took place 25-26 July 2014 between 3pm and midnight in the Ratchaprasong area (Ratchadamri Road linked with Rama I Road) in the heart of Bangkok. The events covered areas from Parc Paragon, Central World Square to The Platinum Fashion Mall and was unified under the theme "Colour Your Life with Happiness". The events were the result of collaboration between different elements of the Thai administration and the business community who joined forces to invite travellers and tourists to visit "Thailand: The Land of Smiles."
