Back to towns in Thailand
Thailand's capital. Expect Bangkok to bowl you over. This dynamic and fascinating city, will affect all your senses. The smell of wonderful food cooked on the street... The noise of the traffic which fades in the peaceful tranquility of temple grounds... The gleaming spires of the Grand Palace and the city’s many historic temples – The Emerald Buddha, Temple of Dawn and other evocative shrines, contrasting with the new glass and steel towers of business corporations and shopping malls... The famous floating markets... canal tours... and of course, the nightlife. The raunchy collection of girlie bars for which Bangkok is unjustifiably infamous, has given way to sophisticated music clubs, bars and restaurants catering to Bangkok's upwardly mobile.
While the traffic is still legendary, the introduction of the modern BTS Skytrain, has made getting around Bangkok very easy. With most of the popular areas within reach, Bangkok's capital city is definitely worth a visit...
