Tourism


Bangkok is an important cultural and economic center of Thailand. The city has a unique energy. Despite the hustle and bustle of the city, there is something special in it that gives a sense of calmness.

Getting around the city is convenient by taxi, motor rickshaws (tuk-tuk), or buses. You can also take a fascinating journey along the Chao Phraya River on motor boats or cruise boats.

For those who wish to learn more about the history of the city and country, Bangkok offers the most informative sightseeing tours, analogues which are not found in all of Thailand.

As night falls, the city literally comes to life. Nightly Thai restaurants with national dance performances, many bars, clubs and other entertainment venues will not leave you indifferent.

Shopping is an integral part of your holiday in Bangkok. You can shop here both in the city's vast wholesale markets (Bobi and Pratunam) and in the huge shopping centers located in the Pratunam area and Silom, Sukumvit and Rachada streets.

Travel Tips


Bangkok's roads are easy to get confused. Some of them have several names, and some are simply numbered.

If you are planning to travel on your own, then remember that the branches from the main roads are called"soi" (alleys or alleys). Each lane has its own number. In this case, even numbers of soi are on one side of the street, and odd numbers are on the opposite. When composing an address, the soi number and house number are always indicated.

You can buy a map of Thailand and instructions for it in most hotels in the city.
