Bangkok, Thailand Travel Guide
Temples, street food and river life
Why visit Bangkok
The Grand Palace, Wat Arun and the floating markets of the Chao Phraya delta make Bangkok Southeast Asia’s gateway. Street food is the draw — pad thai from a wok at midnight, green curry from a riverside stall — and the city’s canal boats beat the traffic. Bangkok is also the launch pad for beach trips south and Chiang Mai north.
