Famous Tourist Spots to Visit in Bangkok, Thailand

Spread the love

Last Christmas , thanks to a budget airline for their seat sales, we were able to booked ourselves to Bangkok, Thailand. I was super excited since I’ve heard so many good things about this country.
I love planning our trips and checking on whats out there to see and so we did some researching of the places we wanted to visit. We stayed at Silom area and checked in at Glow Hotel. Liked this place a lot since it’s very central and walking distance to the train station. We didn’t take any taxi at all. We walked and hopped on the sky train all the time.
Alright, these are the place we visited during our 5 day stay in Bangkok. First is the Grand Palace. It is a huge place, very grand and so beautiful. Please be reminded that wearing shorts are not allowed. Dress code must be followed but don’t worry, you can rent one inside. Next to Grand Palace is Wat Pho where you can see the reclining Buddha. Next, are their Night Markets.
A walk around Silom area will surely be a haven for night markets. If you are not afraid of heights,try visiting Baiyoke Sky Hotel. It is the tallest building in Thailand. There are also shopping malls that you can explore by train and offer big discounts. Let’s also not forget Thai Cuisine as it’s one of the best I’ve tasted so far. I love the curries and the Chicken satay. When visiting the city make sure you stay over the weekend because a CHATUCHAK MARKET IS A MUST! It’s a huge weekend flea market and this is perfect for bargain shopping. Our trip was short but full of fun. The night life is also very active. No dull moments in Bangkok!
Bangkok, Thailand is a beautiful city and a country as a whole. And I would love to visit this country again very soon!
