A Portuguese Surprise in Bangkok! Santa Cruz Church and more!
A Portuguese Surprise in Bangkok! Santa Cruz Church and more!
Everybody associates Bangkok with its magnificent Buddhist temples, but along the Chao Phraya River in the heart of Bangkok are a series of beautiful Catholic churches.
Most of them going back hundreds of years when European countries were first making contact with Thailand, or the Kingdom of Siam as it was called then.
Portugal was the first European nation to make contact with the Kingdom, in 1511 in what was then the capital city: Ayutthaya. Portuguese became dominant foreign traders, and established a presence there.
Until today the community around the church is proud of their heritage and besides the church there is a Catholic school, a museum dedicated to their history and there is even a Portuguese delicacy that is still baked in the traditional way at several bakeries in the area!
The so called farang kudeejeen is a sweet dessert from an old Portuguese recipe passed down from generation to generation and still made till this day by Thai bakeries who mix the flours, duck eggs, sugar, raisins and other preserved fruits into the dough which -after rising- is then baked above a traditional charcoal fire.
This is done everyday in the little local houses all around the Santa Cruz church.
If you want to see, smell and taste these delicious pastries as well as be amazed by what else this city has to offer in hidden treasures and unforgettable experiences, please join us on one of our tours and See the Real Bangkok with Co van Kessel Bangkok Tours!

Looking for an authentic and unique adventure? Co van Kessel bike tours and boat tours provides a refreshing alternative to the tired tourist experience. We do not battle the crowds at clichéd destinations promoted in guide books, but turn your attention to quaint local communities and charming excursions into the fascinating lifestyle and culture of real Thai people. Every day is different and every tour is a surprise as we focus not on destinations, but lose ourselves in the enchantment of the journey itself.
Co van Kessel, an innovative and adventurous Dutchman, pioneered bicycle tours in Bangkok more than 30 years ago. As a longtime resident and self-professed lover of Bangkok, he understood very well the picture of accelerated urban development (gridlocked traffic, concrete towers, and choking pollution) that has plagued the recent image of the city. He also had a hunch that this was not what Bangkok or Thailand was all about.
What we do
Our mission at Co van Kessel Bangkok Tours is to provide our guests with a singularly unique travel experience in Thailand. All our tours use Co’s extensive topographical knowledge of the greater Bangkok area as well as his keen eye for the interesting to take you where nobody else can or will.
We aim not to bore you with talk, but to immerse you in an experience where your individual fascinations emerge.
Bicycles, boats, and our feet become the tools we use to gain access to the previously inaccessible, behind-the-scenes lifestyle of the Thai. Here the roots of an ancient culture will become evident in a way you never could have imagined.

Ruins of the ancient Thai-Kingdom (Temples of Ayutthaya)
In this video I did a day-trip to the city of Ayutthaya to check out some temple-ruins. I'm really stoked on the drone-shots I got at some of the places.

THAILAND: PORTUGUESE PRESIDENT SAMPAIO VISIT
English/Nat
Portuguese President Jorge Sampaio was stricken with fever and a severely sore throat on Tuesday, forcing him to postpone a historic trip to his country's former colony, East Timor, for up to three months.
Sampaio had planned to arrive in East Timor on Tuesday and meet with leaders including Jose Alexandre Xanana Gusmao, the charismatic former rebel chief expected to become his country's first president.
The visit should have capped a dramatic Asian sojourn where Sampaio turned over Portugal's last colony, the tiny gambling enclave of Macau, to China, and would have been the first Portuguese leader to visit East Timor as it leaves behind a quarter-century of brutal Indonesian rule.
A presidential spokesman said that doctors had advised Sampaio to cancel his appointments for the next eight to 10 days, the first being his planned audience with Thai King Bhumibol Adulyadej.
The president is now expected to return to Lisbon later Tuesday.
Links were cut between Portugal with East Timor a quarter of a century ago, following Jakarta's invasion of the former Portuguese colony, but the Portuguese president has said he expects to re-establish diplomatic relations with Indonesia very soon.
In August the people of East Timor voted overwhelmingly for independence in a UN-organised poll, before enduring weeks of violence by pro-Indonesia militia.
Portugal's President Jorge Sampaio spoke during a stopover on Monday night in Bangkok, Thailand.
He had been due to leave for East Timor, formerly a Portuguese province, On Tuesday.
He offered an olive branch, saying his country was determined to shepherd in good relations between East Timor and its Asian neighbours.
His remarks were made a day after Portugal's red and green flag came down in Macau and was replaced by a red communist Chinese banner, ending 442 years of colonial rule in the region.
Despite handing back the enclave, his moves to restore diplomatic ties with Jakarta are seen as Portugal's desire to continue to influence events in the region.
President Sampaio suggested that, as peace is gradually restored to the region, ravaged by war earlier this year, his task will be a more realistic one.
SOUNDBITE: (English)
It's clear that there is a good climate between our foreign ministers. There has been a significant change in Indonesia. We have always thought that East Timor has to have good relations with its neighbours, so the stumbling block which was very sad and very dramatic which made it impossible for Portugal to have a relationship with Indonesia has come to an end fortunately. So the conditions are beginning to be created for this restoring of relations, and I wouldn't be surprised if you hear something about that in the very near future.
SUPERCAPTION: Jorge Sampaio, Portuguese President
The President was in Thailand to offer thanks for its role in the peacekeeping force, currently in East Timor.
The role of the Portuguese in Asian history has long been a significant one.
They were the first Europeans to control parts of Asia and they are now the last to leave, after the French pulled out of Indochina, the Dutch quit Indonesia and the British gave up colonies including India, Pakistan, Malaysia and Singapore.
