Bangkok

Refined, authentic Thai cuisine.

Honest, delicious Thai dishes in an unpretentious neighborhood restaurant.

Classic Thai street dining (plastic chair theory).

A peaceful open-air coffee stop in Queen Sirikit Park.

Cool spot (literally) with specialty coffee brews.

Underground lounge with regular live music.

Sleek rooftop club above the city skyline.

Nightclub with great crowds and late-night DJ sets.

Defining landmark of Bangkok; a complex of royal halls and temples.

Preserved traditional house surrounded by a garden, honoring the American silk merchant Jim Thompson.

Mountain get-away about a 3-hour drive from Bangkok, great for nature walks, waterfalls and elephant spotting.
