Bangkok, Thailands überschäumende Hauptstadt: vergoldete Tempel und Königspaläste am Fluss, dazu Streetfood, Märkte und Wolkenkratzer.

Der Große Palast und der Wat Phra Kaew, Heimat des verehrten Smaragdbuddhas, glitzern auf der alten königlichen Insel Rattanakosin. Nebenan beherbergt der Wat Pho einen riesigen liegenden Buddha und eine berühmte Schule für Thai-Massage, und jenseits des Chao Phraya leuchten die mit Porzellan besetzten Türme des Wat Arun bei Sonnenuntergang.
