15 days in Bangkok Itinerary

Enjoy cultural, historical, and culinary exploration during your holiday in Bangkok, the capital of Thailand and the most populous city in the country.

Get out of town with these interesting Bangkok side-trips: Dong Phayayen-Khao Yai Forest Complex (in Saraburi), Ayutthaya (Wat Ratchaburana (Temple of the Royal Restoration), Wat Maha That, &more) and Ancient City (in Samut Prakan). There's still lots to do: contemplate the long history of The Grand Palace, indulge in some personalized pampering at some of the best spas, take in the architecture and atmosphere at Temple Of Dawn (Wat Arun), and buy something for everyone on your list at MBK Center (Ma Boon Khrong Center).
