Glorious food, magnificent temples, and exhilarating tuk tuk rides.

Every weekend in Bangkok this large night market takes place outside of the world mall. From the fourth floor of the mall parking garage, we were able to get a stunning vantage point of the market below. We could even feel the spices as we breathed in the air from above. | Bangkok in Thailand

 | Bangkok in Thailand
Capital of 🇹🇭 Thailand with a population of around 5.7 million people.

Bangkok is a city of contrasts. The frenetic energy of the city is juxtaposed with the tranquility of the temples and the serenity of the canals. The city is a shoppers’ paradise, with malls and markets selling everything from designer clothes to exotic fruits. The nightlife is legendary, with bars and clubs catering to all tastes. But Bangkok is more than just a city of entertainment. It is also a city of culture, with a wealth of temples and museums. The people are warm and friendly, and the food is some of the best in the world. Bangkok is a city that should not be missed.

What people say about Bangkok

I am from Ho Chi Minh City where the food scene is great. However, I found Bangkok food scene is one big step above it. You can find many different types of cuisines in Bangkok: from local Thai food to Vietnamese, Singaporean, Chinese, Japanese, Italian, French, American, Mediterranean and much much more; and you can get good foods from street food vendors, food courts in shopping malls, local markets and dining restaurants. What I like to do in Bangkok are to visit temples, local markets, try different restaurants and get a great Thai massage after a long day in the sun. Like many big cities nearby, it is not very convenient for walking on foot in Bangkok; however, it is easy to explore Bangkok thanks to the smooth Metro system. Overall: great food, lively city, good public transportation and sunny the whole year-round. I would love to go to Bangkok a few times per year if I lived in Southeast Asia.

I have been to Bangkok twice and have a positive but complicated relationship with the city so far. I love exploring the city in the back of a tuk-tuk! Often on the way to eat something delicious at a local market or a simple place on the street. The food is some of the best in the world, especially if one enjoys street food. I also enjoy the beautiful temples, the river taxis, the city's energy, and the painful massages. I struggle a bit with how much is adapted for tourists even though it is such a massive city. I understand that Bangkok is one of the most visited cities in the world, but I found too many places catering to tourists, and I can't handle places like Khao San Road where local gangsters serve cheap beer to tourists in some weird mix of the worst of the East and West. I would really like to spend a week or two in Bangkok to properly get to know the city, and perhaps most of all its street food.
