About Bangkok

Bangkok, esuberante capitale della Thailandia, allinea templi dorati e palazzi reali lungo il fiume tra cibo di strada, mercati e grattacieli.

Il Grand Palace e il Wat Phra Kaew, sede del venerato Buddha di Smeraldo, scintillano sull'antica isola reale di Rattanakosin. Accanto, il Wat Pho ospita un gigantesco Buddha disteso e una famosa scuola di massaggio thailandese, e al di là del fiume Chao Phraya le guglie tempestate di porcellana del Wat Arun risplendono al tramonto.

Top-ranked sights in Bangkok: Temple of the Dawn (Wat Arun), Bangkok Chinatown (Yaowarat), Grand Palace.
