Travel Guide to Bangkok

Introduction

Bangkok is one of the most visited cities in the world, and with good reason. The city is full of rich history and culture, beautiful temples, delicious food and a vibrant nightlife scene. It’s also very easy to get around Bangkok on a budget. You don’t need to rent a car or take an expensive tour—just use public transportation, eat at local restaurants and stay in affordable hostels!

What to Do in Bangkok

The Grand Palace is a must-see for any visitor to Bangkok. It’s a complex of buildings that has been the residence of Thai royalty since 1782, and it’s absolutely breathtaking. The palace grounds are well-maintained, with lush gardens and beautiful fountains throughout the complex. You can also visit the Wat Pho temple within its walls–it’s home to one of Thailand’s most famous statues: Reclining Buddha.

The Wat Arun temple is another popular attraction in Bangkok; this Buddhist temple sits on an island in Chao Phraya River and offers spectacular views from its steeply sloping roofs that jut out over water below them (hence why it’s called “Temple of Dawn”). Visitors can climb up onto these roofs for even better views! If you’re looking for something less touristy than those two spots but still want some culture while exploring Thailand, check out Jim Thompson House Museum or Golden Buddha Temple –both offer beautiful architecture plus interesting history lessons about their respective religions’ origins.*

Where to Stay in Bangkok

If you’re looking for a beachfront hotel and want to be near the action, consider staying in one of Bangkok’s many beach resorts. Hua Hin is a popular option with its beaches and golf courses, while Pattaya offers more nightlife options.

Sukhumvit Road runs through central Bangkok and is home to many hotels that offer good value for money, such as The Peninsula Hotel or Dusit Thani Hotel & Residences Bangkok (both reviewed below).

If you prefer staying in Chinatown or Sukhumvit area but don’t want to pay too much money on accommodation then try these options: The White House Boutique Hotel & Spa (reviewed below), Nana by BTS station – also known as Soi 4 – which has budget hostels like Khaosan International Hostel & Guesthouse, who have beds starting from 400 Baht per night; however if you’re traveling with children then it might not be suitable due to noisy traffic outside at night time so if this isn’t an issue then go ahead!

Where to Eat in Bangkok

If you’re looking for a place to eat in Bangkok, the options are endless. From local food to street food and everything in between, there is something for every taste. Here are some recommendations:

• Local Restaurants: If you want authentic Thai cuisine, look no further than these restaurants! They serve up delicious dishes that will remind you of home while giving you an authentic experience of Thai culture.
• Street Food: Street food is popular around the world because it’s cheap and delicious! If you’re looking for something quick but don’t have time to sit down at one of those fancy sit-down restaurants (and don’t mind eating off plastic plates), take advantage of all that Bangkok has to offer by trying some street food during your stay here! You may even find yourself craving some after returning home from vacation–I know I do!

How to Get Around Bangkok

Bangkok is a sprawling city, and it’s easy to get lost in the crowds. Luckily, there are several ways to get around Bangkok so you can explore its sights and sounds with ease.

The BTS Skytrain is one of the most convenient ways for tourists to get around Bangkok. It’s also known as the City Air Terminal Train or CAT, which stands for “city air terminal.” This elevated railway system runs from Suvarnabhumi Airport into central Bangkok and stops at many major stations along the way. The BTS Skytrain operates from 6am until midnight every day except Monday (when it closes at 11pm). You can buy tickets on board or at any ticket office near any station where there is an escalator leading up into this sleek white subway car that travels high above street level through busy intersections with its doors opening automatically when approaching them during rush hour traffic jams so passengers can easily enter without having someone holding onto their shoulder while they climb onto two feet high platforms while trying not slip off because they’re wearing flip flops instead of sneakers…
