About Bangkok

Bangkok, capitale exubérante de la Thaïlande, aligne temples dorés et palais royaux le long du fleuve, entre cuisine de rue, marchés et gratte-ciel.

Le Grand Palais et le Wat Phra Kaew, qui abrite le vénéré Bouddha d'émeraude, étincellent sur l'ancienne île royale de Rattanakosin. À côté, le Wat Pho abrite un bouddha couché géant et une célèbre école de massage thaïlandais, et de l'autre côté du fleuve Chao Phraya, les flèches incrustées de porcelaine du Wat Arun brillent au coucher du soleil.
