|
The capital of Thailand Bangkok is a great place for a city break. It has everything, from culture, historic landmarks, nightlife, good food and so much more! Bangkok is the kind of destination you should visit for at least 48-72 hours, or longer if you have time. In this guide, I will share suggestions on things to do in the city, places to eat, places to stay, and how to get around for your Bangkok Trip. Towards the end, you will also find some photography and destination tips that should help you with your trip.
Things to See and Do
Bangkok is big and quite spread out. During a short city break of 48-72 hours, you will only be able to see and do so much. I recommend doing your research and deciding on what to do before your trip. If you have longer such as four or more days you could probably see most of the main attractions.
Below you will find a couple of top things to see. Head to Top Things to See and Do in Bangkok for lots more ideas.
Grand Palace
The Grand Palace should not be missed when visiting Bangkok. The Palace was established in 1782 and is the home of one of the countries most sacred monuments, the Emerald Buddha (Wat Phra Kaew). Also in the Grand Palace are throne rooms, government offices, and various museums. Visit close to the opening to avoid large queues. And remember to dress appropriately, so no short skirts/shorts, tight clothing, sandals, and sleeveless tops.
Wat Pho and the Reclining Buda
Wat Pho is a beautiful temple complex that you’ll find near the Grand Palace. Around the complex are Prang towers, Stupas, and various Buddha statues. The highlight for many will be the Reclining Buddha, which is a stunning 46 meters long gold Buddha statue lying on its side. For those visiting for a short break, I would highly recommend this temple.
Baiyoke Tower II
For those wanting some fantastic aerial views of the city head up Baiyoke Tower II. This is one of Thailand's tallest towers and at the top, you’ll find two observation decks on floors 77 and 84. To capture beautiful photographs visit at sunset to capture the best light. |
