Experience the best of Bangkok
Bangkok is Thailand's exuberant capital, where gilded temples and royal palaces line the river amid street-food stalls, markets and skyscrapers.

The Grand Palace and Wat Phra Kaew, home of the revered Emerald Buddha, glitter on the old royal island of Rattanakosin. Next door, Wat Pho shelters a giant reclining Buddha and a famous school of Thai massage, and across the Chao Phraya River the porcelain-studded spires of Wat Arun glow at sunset.
River boats and longtail boats along the canals of Thonburi reveal an older city of stilt houses and temples. Chinatown's Yaowarat Road turns into a feast of street food after dark, and the Chatuchak Weekend Market sprawls across thousands of stalls. Lumphini Park offers green space among the towers, rooftop bars give dizzying views over the skyline, and floating markets such as Damnoen Saduak and the old capital of Ayutthaya are classic day trips.
Thai cooking is the city's great joy: pad thai, tom yum, green curry, boat noodles, mango sticky rice and grilled meats on skewers. The cool season from November to February is the most comfortable, and Songkran, the Thai new year in mid-April, turns streets such as Silom into a citywide water fight at the hottest time of year.
