Bangkok Favorite Tips by xaver
Bangkok Favorites: 604 reviews and 756 photos
walking
Favorite thing: After a full day of walking around temples taking your shoes on and off, then walking to another temple and then to the chinese area and then to a market, the only fondest memory you can ask for is a very good massage!Make sure to book it in your hotel or to take information about where to find a good one, when you get back from the excursions!
Grand Palace
Favorite thing: Visit the Grand palace, with its gardens.
To go there you should not wear short shirts or pants.Anyway if you do not have long shirts or pants, they can rent you some clothes to cover you up.
Fondest memory: Grand palace is in the centre of the city, but you would not say that because it is full gardens and colours
Rose Garden
Favorite thing: Go to Rose garden, it is about 100 kilometers from Bangkok and it is a trip sold more or less in any agency in Bangkok.
This is the tour where you are also brought to a floating market, ofcourse that is not the sunday Bangkok one, but if you visit Bangkok during the week days, it can become a good alternative.
Gran Palace
Favorite thing: Grand palace is always full of tourists, so you could have find a quite big que to enter, AND even more odd, the que of people interested in taking a picture ALL at the same subject!
Budda
Favorite thing: Budda Budda Budda Budda Budda Budda Budda Budda Budda Budda Budda Budda Budda!!!
You will find all kind of Budda statues in any kind of position during your trip in Thailand so, if you do not have a very deep interest, try to chose the temples and the Buddas you want to visit, before going.
Ayutaya
Favorite thing: Ayutaya, an ancient city not far from Bangkok.
The city is not so far from Bangkok you can go and get back in a day trip, ask your hotel or any agency to arrange an excursion there, it's very popular and very easy to reach.
