Don't drink the tap water: Drink bottled water
  • Tip Rating:
  • Be sure to drink only bottled water and to use bottled water for brushing your teeth. I goofed on the second part a couple of times and am still here, but it's still good advice:)
    .
    Also don't order anything with ice in it outside the main hotels and restaurants where they have taken appropriate precautions with their water.

    Warnings Or Dangers: Don't touch the elephant!!!
  • Tip Rating:
  • This sign at The Grand Palace is rather clear as long as one understands the red line through a depicted action as recommending that you NOT do it :) Anyway -- it was one of the more entertaining signs I saw while I was there!

     Absolute nonsense! The tap water is safe to drink and has been since 2002

     Great page about this wonderful and busy city! I specially love the Lotos-Pic in your "Local Customs" section.

     Enjoyed your BKK tips, especially the Golden Temple. It is a magnificent compound - ain't it?
