There is actually 2 Bangkok's - the 'old' Bangkok, where a large proportion of the city's temples and palaces and its Chinese and Indian districts are found, and the 'new' Bangkok which comprises of the business, tourist and sprawling residential districts, is 'new' Bangkok.
Bangkok is currently home to 7.6 million residents |
