Bangkok is the capital and most important city in Thailand, with a population of over 10 million people. It is the only cosmopolitan city in a country of small towns and villages and is Thailand’s cultural and commercial centre. Thanks to its growing economic development and massive popularity as an international tourist destination, it has become one of Southeast Asia's most influential and modern cities.
Bangkok - a vibrant city of diverse colors.
Located on the banks of the country's main river, Chao Phraya, the city relied on a wide system of canals - khlong in Thai - for transport between the 16th and 19th centuries, leading to its nickname as the Venice of the East.
If you decide to visit Bangkok, make sure not to miss the Grand Palace and the major Buddhist temples of Wat Phra Kaew, Wat Pho and Wat Arun, also Jim Thompson House, Bangkok National Museum and Taling Chan Floating Market are worth to be seen. Bangkok is also an outstanding destination for foodie travellers, since street-side food stalls and restaurants are well present throughout the city, especially in Yaowarat.
Though Bangkok is a year-round destination, the best time to visit Bangkok weather-wise is from November to February. The weather is not-so-hot and mostly sunny, which is very suitable for sightseeing. You will find big discounts if you travel between June and October due to the rainy season. It is usually the cheapest time of year to go to Bangkok. If you want to experience Thailand's top festivals, then come in April or November, which are the months for Thai New Year (Songkran Festival) and Loy Krathong respectively. In the middle and end of the year, Bangkok, the shopping paradise, offers attractive discounts at major shopping malls.
