Bangkok: What to see in the surroundings?

What our travelers think about their stay

Bangkok is the capital of Thailand, the hub of the country and a cosmopolitan melting pot, where modern life blends with tradition.

My suggestion

Use the subway where possible; avoid the overly expensive tuk tuks and make sure the meter's on if you take a cab. Getting around Bangkok is easy but it can take time.

Bangkok is the capital of Thailand. Once a small commercial town on the banks of the Chao Phraya river, nowadays the town has more than 8 million inhabitants, and is the symbol of the country's economic development.

My suggestion

Bangkok has an incredible number of temples, each more impressive than the last, but my favorite of all is Wat Pho, which is considered one of the oldest temples in the city and is also the biggest.

Thailand's capital offers a joyful mixture of both out-and-out modernity and history.

My suggestion

Use the buses (cheap and a genuine transport service!) and the subway (clean and high-tech!) rather than the Bangkok tuk-tuks. which are famous for ripping off tourists.

The magic of Pha Taem, north of Khong Chiam

The Khong Chiam region is still largely unaffected by tourism and, for those willing to explore it, offers spectacular scenery and the promise of peaceful days spent well away from the noise and chaos of the urban environment. With its waterfalls, cliffs and rock paintings, Pha Taem is the kind of place you simply never tire of exploring.
