Bangkok Holidays

A holiday in Bangkok is one of the most exciting things you will experience in your lifetime! The capital and largest city in Thailand, Bangkok is a cosmopolitan melting pot which enthrals at every turn. Vast and sprawling, Bangkok is fast moving and colourful with a population of over 11 million people!

Bangkok holidays are tailor-made for sightseeing as the city has wondrous temples or Wats, ancient traditional buildings, great modern architecture, street markets, fascinating palaces, and risque nightlife. A city that does not rest, Bangkok is full of lively, upbeat energy.

The Chao Phraya river runs through the city and bisects various areas in what sometimes appear like a concrete jungle. Sukhumvit Road is a long stretch where you can find upmarket restaurants, glitzy clubs, and nightlife venues. The area of "Old Bangkok" is home to the stunning Grand Palace and Wat Pho. Then, take a ferry across the river to see Wat Arun. Siam Square has a lot of high end hotels and sophisticated shopping malls where the futuristic Skytrain intersects.

Exploration of a few of the hundreds of temples is a must on any Bangkok holiday where reclining Buddhas and Emerald Buddhas and the gentle saffron-robed monks form the delightfully unique flavour of this marvellous city. Another must on the travel itinerary with any Bangkok holiday is a floating market on the water. Long canoe-like boats are paddled by women who peddle their wares or cook and serve steaming bowls of noodles.
