Travel Information
Explore Bangkok, one of Asia’s busiest cities whose bustling nightlife, endless shopping opportunities and exotic cuisine are attractions to many tourists around the world. Take a tour of its various temples and sites that make up Thailand’s rich history and culture.
Attractions Tour one of the most historical spots in Thailand, the Grand Palace—the official residence of the Kings of Thailand since the 18th century. Built to contain the center of government, the Grand Palace has been expanded through the years and has added the Temple of the Emerald Buddha (the private place of worship of the monarchy), the Royal Institute of Thailand and the Office of the Private Secretary to the King.
The Floating Market, also known as Damnoen Saduak is around an hour’s drive away from Bangkok, depending on the traffic conditions. In here you will find merchants on long, flat boats, selling everything from fresh produce, noodles, handicrafts, spices, fruits and even meals.
The Chao Phraya River Tour will take you back to Thailand’s Golden Age, as you marvel at the grand architecture of the temples that line the river bank. These temples represent thousands of years of Thailand’s rich history. Bangkok is definitely one of Asia’s many bargain shopping meccas.
Pratunam and Suan Loum are must-see attractions because of their bargain and tiangge-type of shopping.
