Longest place name in the world

"Krung Thep Mahanakhon Amon Rattanakosin Mahinthara Yuthaya Mahadilok Phop Noppharat Ratchathani Burirom Udomratchaniwet Mahasathan Amon Piman Awatan Sathit Sakkathattiya Witsanukam Prasi"

is the longest place name in the world. Its not in english though.


"Taumatawhakatangihangakoauauotamateaturipukakapikimaungahoronukupokaiwhenuakitanatahul"
is the longest place name in the world in english :)

I forgot 10% of the word while reading from left to right :P
Not sure how the people living there remember the word or they would just say "long name place" :P
