Grand Palace
This is the archetypal Thailand tourist attraction. Going to Thailand and not visiting the Grand Palace) would be like a visit to Windsor Castle and the setting of something to have tea with the Queen (oder. The architecture is outstanding, the treasures (like the famous Emerald Buddha) breathtaking, the eerie atmosphere of "un-Western", you feel like you really arrived in Asia, as you around the Palace in the sights and walkOdors.
Wat Pho
Wat Pho is another amazing temple. This is a real working conditions temple, with a traditional medical center and massage school (you'll learn how a Thai massage can do there). I am a massive fan of Thai massage and can vouch for its effectiveness. After back pain for over 13 years, it has been completely eliminated after a Thai massage session, and has never been problems since suffered. Quite incredible. Wat Pho is a fascinating place with many nooks and cranniesand to explore some key resources such as the reclining Buddha statue.
Wat Arun
Less glamorous than the previous two wats, Wat Arun is often the sight, the emphatic on these postcards, which will see a Wat at sunrise or sunset - perhaps with a fog rolling up the Chao Phraya River. In fact, Sunrise (or more typically sunset) is enjoying the best time of the ancient splendor of the ancient Wat. The architectural details of the Wat is really amazing -take a boat ride and enjoy the view from the River.
Oriental Hotel
Some would argue that the Oriental Bangkok is the best hotel in the world. While this may have been true 10 years ago, this requirement may be less valid today, but not without considerable merit. While for most of us live in the Middle is a little over our budget, you can still enjoy the magnificence of this fine hotel with an evening there. It is highly recommended. You can sit by the riverand enjoy some drinks (and a cool breeze flow), or pamper yourself with a fabulous dinner, complete with entertainment, such as Thai dancing and music. Dinner is a traditional Thai "tables" made - where you are effectively sitting in the earth and the food is more or less on the floor - fascinating stuff.
As you go through the Oriental, do not forget to look around and take in particular - the beautiful architecture of the hotel, built in 1876, hissavored.
Baiyoke Sky Hotel
Bangkok is a pretty impressive city with many strangely shaped and very tall buildings. The highest is the Baiyoke Tower. It is an amazing building and you can not help them on the trip by taxi from the airport notice to downtown Bangkok. The Sky Hotel has a café and a bar at the top, you can use abroad. There is live entertainment, good food and the view can not be beaten.
Mahboonkrong Shopping Centre (MBK)
MBK is a veryfamous shopping center in Bangkok and the law. It's an amazing "Aladdin's Cave" of products. Electrical Engineering, T-shirts, cameras, DVDs, CDs, souvenirs, cafes, watches, mobile phones ... they can all be found in MBK and many more. There is also an entire floor dedicated to restaurants ... everything from Thai to Japanese to Western and everything in between.
Besides being a great venue for shopping, MTC has also observed a great place for people. Just find a coffee shop, grab an icedTea and relax!
Jim Thompson's House
Jim Thompson is a well known figure in Thailand, not least because of his mysterious disappearance while walking in the Cameron Highlands of Malaysia. Conspiracy theories abound and the involvement of the CIA, is rumored. What is known that Jim Thompson to re-generate the Thai silk market and credited to a very successful and wealthy businessman is in the process. Jim Thompson was also an avid collector of Thai cultureArtifacts seen still in his house, which is open to the public. The house is the traditional Thai style of the house.
The house is a museum and is one of the most interesting places in Bangkok in my opinion. Architecture and design of the house is amazing and the interiors and breathtaking.
This is an absolute must-see venue.
China Town
It is a very important influence of China in Thailand - many are Chinese Thais were fromImmigrants. As such, Bangkok has a huge Chinatown, much larger and more spectacular, that either the Chinatowns of San Francisco or London in my opinion.
It is a great place to eat - there are so many restaurants and takeaways from this the best thing to do, only now and find a place as you choose the look. There are also many vendors on the streets, and you can buy all kinds of souvenirs. I like the purchase of much Chinese-style products such as mirrors,Lanterns and religious objects.
Make sure you take your camera - there will be many photo opportunities.
Dusit Park
Sometimes it's nice to offer away from the hustle and bustle of life in Bangkok and Dusit Park a beautiful and relaxing atmosphere. There are a lot in the park, and is the beautiful gardens there are several local museums, including the King Bhumibol photography museums, antique fabric and silk museum and the rank and Portrait Museum. Youare much more interesting than they sound! The pavilion on the lake is also possible escape.
Floating Market
The Damnoen Saduak Floating Market is the best of the floating markets. It is located about 60 miles outside of Bangkok, it is a bit of a trek, but worth it, since most of the nearby floating markets in Bangkok are just tourist traps and unpleasant places to visit. This market has retained something of its original character. It is possible to get organized toursfrom Bangkok to go there if you want, you can make your own way there.
