All about Bangkok
When to Visit
The best time to visit Bangkok is from November to February, during the cool season, when the weather is dry and comfortable for outdoor activities. March to May is the hot season, with soaring temperatures, making it ideal for indoor attractions and evening outings. The rainy season, from June to October, brings heavy showers but also fewer crowds and lush greenery. If you’re visiting in November, don’t miss the magical Loy Krathong Festival.
Getting Around
Bangkok’s efficient transport system makes getting around easy. The BTS Skytrain and MRT subway are ideal for avoiding traffic and connecting major areas. Taxis, tuk-tuks, and motorbike taxis are widely available for short trips, but always agree on the fare beforehand. Ride-hailing apps like Grab offer convenience. Ferries on the Chao Phraya River provide scenic and affordable transportation. Walking is best for exploring areas like Chinatown or Khao San Road.
Traveler Tips
When visiting Bangkok, dress modestly when exploring temples, covering your shoulders and knees, and remove shoes before entering. Carry cash for street food and markets, but credit cards are accepted at malls and hotels. Stay hydrated and wear light clothing to cope with the tropical heat. Try iconic dishes like pad Thai, green curry, and mango sticky rice from street vendors. Beware of scams, especially involving tuk-tuks or overly friendly strangers offering tours. For the best shopping experience, visit Chatuchak Market or MBK Center. Finally, plan your itinerary to include a mix of cultural sites, modern attractions, and authentic local experiences.
