  • The Kings palace is probably the most beautiful site in Bangkok. When you go, remember it is a holy site. Proper dress is required. If you are wearing flip-flops, you will have to rent shoes. If you have no sleeves on a blouse or shirt, you will be required to rent a shirt. There just happens to be a thriving shirt, shoe rental service at the entrance to the King's Palace!

     Thanks for a brilliant warning/tip. We are going to Thailand in Nov 09 and I have printed out your blog and will take it with us. We got conned very badly in Hong Hong and don't want to repeat the experience. Joy

     If you wish an even cheaper transfer to BKK center get the 154 bus to Victory Monument from the ground floor, left end of terminal, 20 TBH.

     Hi Ray, Arrive Bangkok 12th Feb, will check out hotels and thanks for new airport info.

     Taxis now will charge a fixed fee to any unknowing farang who sits in a cab. They say they do not use the meter any more and make the fee a fixed 400 baht or more when the meter fare will be about 150 baht plus the airport fee of 50 baht.
