News, flights and what to do on vacation in Bangkok

Bangkok, the vibrant capital of the Thailand, is a city that enchants and captivates visitors from all over the world. Located in the heart of the country, Bangkok is a pulsating metropolis that harmoniously blends tradition and modernity. With a population of more than 10 million of inhabitants, this cosmopolitan city is a melting pot of cultures, religions and culinary tastes, offering a unique experience to anyone who visits.

Bangkok's top five tourist attractions are a fascinating mix of history, spirituality and entertainment. For example, the Temple of the Emerald Buddha, o Wat Phra Kaew, is an architectural marvel and is considered the most sacred in Thailand. The Grand Royal Palace is a complex of magnificent buildings that was the residence of Thai kings, offering a glimpse of the country's grandeur and historical wealth. The Wat Arun, o Temple of Dawn, is a majestic structure located on the banks of the river Chao Phraya, famous for its panoramic view of the city. Khao San Road is instead the pulsating center of nightlife, with its lively markets, inexpensive restaurants and lively bars that attract young travelers. Finally, the floating markets offer a unique shopping and cultural experience, allowing visitors to browse food, craft and souvenir stalls along the city's canals.

To get to bustling Bangkok, you can land at two international airports. The main one is theBangkok Suvarnabhumi International Airport (BKK), located about 25 kilometers east of the city center, which handles most international and domestic flights. L'Bangkok Don Mueang International Airport (DMK), located instead in north of downtown Bangkok, is a popular option for domestic flights and some low-cost international routes.
