BANGKOK, THAILAND (2023) | 10 BEST Things To Do In & Around Bangkok (+ Travel Tips!)

In this video, we highlight 10 of the best things to do in and around Bangkok for your first or second visit:

10. Try the street food
A dish generally costs between 1 to $3 and ranges from barbecued chicken and steamed dumplings, to Pad Thai and tasty mango sticky rice.

9. Admire the Grand Palace
The Grand Palace is Bangkok’s most impressive and popular tourist attraction. Established in 1782, this complex was the royal residence for generations.

8. See the reclining Buddha at Wat Pho
Known as one of Bangkok’s oldest temples, this place has a rich history and is home to an impressive Reclining Buddha.

7. Visit a floating market
The most popular floating market is Damnoen Saduak, which is about a 1.5 hour drive from the city center of Bangkok.

6. Take a stroll in Lumpini park
This big green oasis offers several lawn areas, paved walking paths, trees, playgrounds, and an artificial lake.

5. Get a view over Bangkok
We visited the Mahanakhon building, home to Bangkok’s highest observation deck, which provides spectacular views of the city and river.

4. Explore lesser-known Buddhist Temples
With roots steeped in centuries-old history and Buddhist culture, you can find hundreds of temples in Bangkok. It’s worth visiting a few in the Banglamphu area (Golden Mount & Loha Prasat) with a local guide.

3. Experience Khao San Road
Khao San Road is a vibrant street, packed with hostels, food vendors, clothing stalls, bars, restaurants, and travelers from every corner of the globe.

2. Shop at Chatuchak Weekend Market
On Saturday and Sunday from 9 am to 6 pm

1. Watch the sunset over the Chao Phraya River & Wat Arun
From one of the rooftop bars (Eagle’s Nest or The Deck Restaurant), you can watch the sun set over Wat Arun.

Thank for this great video. My family and I just left Thailand and were able to capture the sites and tours on this video. We also added Koh Samui to our itinerary and visited the elephant sanctuary and Angthong National Marine Park. We had a wonderful time as this was some of my family members first visit. Highly recommend. 😊
