Bangkok

A Place of Fascination
by
Humming with nightlife and fervour, Bangkok is my second home, an escape from my rat-race life. Luxury malls compete with a sea of boutiques and markets, where I can treat myself without overspending. It’s always abuzz with energy and action – an ideal place for Next Gen and global travellers.
This is a city of extremes with action on every corner: Marvel at the gleaming temples, catch a tuk tuk along the bustling Chinatown or take a longtail boat through floating markets. Food is another Bangkok highlight, from local dishes served at humble street stalls to haute cuisine at romantic rooftop restaurants.
Wherever you venture, the smells of jasmine and grilled street food will remind you of where you are. And no visit to Bangkok would be complete without a glimpse of its famous nightlife – from cabarets to exotic red-light districts, Bangkok never ceases to amaze…
 
 
 
GETTING THERE
 
THAI Smile, Thai Airways’ new budget airline flies domestic routes as well as Bangkok-Macau, but it does not fly out of Don Mueang. It is based at Suvarnabhumi so bear that in mind if you are thinking of moving from an AirAsia or Nok flight (which use Don Mueang) to a THAI Smile one. 
 
 
WHERE TO STAY
 
Aloft Bangkok at Sukhumvit 
An easy breezy adventure awaits you in Thailand’s hippest hotspot!
The hotel is just steps from the best shopping, nightlife, and dining destinations, and a quick 5-minute stroll to Nana BTS Skytrain and MRT Subway stations for easy access to Bangkok’s biggest attractions.
 
 
WHERE TO EAT
 
Joe Louis Gourmet Thai Cuisine and Bar – The restaurant is a unique, exotic dining experience of modern Thai cuisine, located in the middle of the Asiatique shopping complex, close to the Calypso theatre.
Talad Rot Fai Srinakarin – Located at Kamphaeng Phet near Chatuchak Weekend Market, this night market has its own character- all about retro and vintage. It attracts all age groups and is a popular hangout area for friends and families.
 
 
WHAT TO DO
 
Once only popular among wholesalers and traders, Chatuchak Weekend Market has reached a landmark status as a must-visit place for tourists. Its sheer size and diverse collections of merchandise will bring any seasoned shoppers to their knees – this is where you can literally shop ‘till you drop’.If you love Thai massages, then you have to visit Body Tune at Park Plaza Sukhumvit, very close to BTS station. It will truly help tune your body, mind and spirit.
