Bangkok is truly the ‘Venice of the East”. Golden temples, beautiful colonial buildings, and bustling open markets can be seen along the city’s vast network of natural and man-made canals. While an array of fabulous restaurants, modern shopping malls and spectacular cultural attractions all add to the sights and sounds that are unique to Bangkok. In part, Bangkok’s special appeal comes from the gracious Thai people with their charisma, generosity and open friendliness, helping shape Thailand’s reputation as the Land of Smiles.
