Visit Bangkok: Get Started

There’s a lot more to Bangkok than just it’s Buddhist history and architecture. Walk and shop at Chatuchak Market or go to the Damnoen Saduak district, home to one of Thailand’s most visited floating markets. After you’ve picked up delicious goodies from local food vendors, take a leisurely stroll at the multi-functional Lumpini Park before venturing out on a tour of the city.
