A brief introduction to Bangkok
Ornate palaces, ancient temples, rich Buddhist heritage, and lively night markets await you in Thailand’s vibrant capital city.
To experience Bangkok’s fascinating culture, the Grand Palace is a must-visit as it has been the official residence of the king for the last 250 years. We also recommend visiting some of the many Buddhist temples situated throughout the city as they are a sight to behold and feature fascinating golden patterns and intricate designs. Some of the most popular temples include the Temple of the Emerald Buddha, Wat Arun, and Wat Saket.
Shopping lovers will also appreciate the many retail options that can be found in Bangkok. Be sure to visit luxury shopping malls such as Siam Paragon, centralwOrld, and ICONSIAM, along with the independent stalls on Shilongjun Road that sell authentic trinkets and souvenirs.
For a taste of Bangkok’s delicious cuisine, explore the street food available on Yaowarat Road, and sample dishes such as crab omelette and ‘tom yum’ (hot and sour) soup.
