Definition of krung thep mahanakhon amon rattanakosin mahinthara ayuthaya mahadilok phop nopph in English English dictionary

The full, ceremonial name of Bangkok, the capital of Thailand

The name Bangkok comes from Bang Makok, meaning ‘Place of Olive Plums'; however, the full official title of the capital is ‘Krungthep mahanakhon amon rattanakosin mahintara ayuthaya mahadilok popnopparat ratchathani burirom udomratchaniwet mahasathan amonpiman avatansathit sakkathattiya visnukamprasit’. This is quite a mouthful, and most Thais abbreviate it to Krung Thep (City of Angels)!.
