There are hundreds of things to see and do in Bangkok. Most of this site's 500 or so pages are devoted to covering some of them. So, which ones should you see? Come to that, where should you stay and where should you eat? In this section I have collected a few lists of what I consider the best of Bangkok, that is, beyond the obvious things you'll find in any guidebook. Explore these pages to find the best hotel, restaurant, sights and shops.
- Hotels
- There are well over a thousand hotels in Bangkok. Which ones are the best?
- Restaurants
- Looking for the best Thai food? Or where to find a good cookie? Then check out my lists of the best of Bangkok restaurants from my travel journal.
- Sights
- There are certainly a lot of things to see and do in Bangkok. Of course, there are some “must-see” places such as the Grand Palace, but there's so much more than that, and some are often overlooked.
- Shopping
- Shopping is almost an obsession with Bangkok residents, and the city is overflowing with malls and markets. Which ones are worth a visit?
