For many, vacationing in Thailand is associated not only with magnificent beaches and green islands but also with a phenomenal variety of things to do in Bangkok – the capital of the kingdom. It is one of the few large cities in a country of small settlements and villages - a cultural and trade centre of Thailand. A bustling, populous metropolis with temples, factories, shops and houses lining the roads and canals is also a popular tourist destination, known for its abundance of cultural attractions and vibrant nightlife: the clubs and bars in Bangkok entertain every taste.

The city is situated in the delta of the Chao Phraya River, approximately 25 miles (40 kilometres) from the Gulf of Siam. Formerly divided into two municipalities – Krung Thep on the eastern bank and Thonburi on the west – connected by several bridges. In 1971, these two municipalities were merged into a province with a unified municipal government. In 1972, the city and the two surrounding provinces merged into a single administrative unit called Krung Thep Maha Nakhon.
Property in Thailand is in demand among both foreign investors and expatriates looking to relocate permanently. The most popular real estate in Bangkok among expats is concentrated near Sukhumvit Road and the elevated metro. There is a quarter known as “Little Japan,” where Japanese immigrants predominate, as well as a couple of areas known as “Arab Street” due to the large number of immigrants from the Middle East. Exclusive complexes, where wealthy expatriates and affluent Thai residents usually live, are also located in this area.
The Silom and Sathorn districts serve major businesses as well as the tourism and nightlife industry. They house the city’s largest financial centres and law firms. Here, tall office buildings and fashionable hotels dominate, rather than typical residential complexes in Bangkok.
Families typically move to the southern district of Bang Na or the eastern part – Bang Kapi. Bang Na is approximately 20 kilometres from the city centre and is conveniently located near the international airport. The area is not lacking in everyday conveniences, with the Central Plaza shopping mecca and the British school Patana located here.
Bang Kapi, located along Ramkhamhaeng Road, is convenient due to its relative proximity to the Khlong Saen Saep Express Boat water transport service. It can take you to the city centre faster than a bus or taxi. Ramkhamhaeng University is also nearby, which is convenient for students.
It is also recommended to consider Nonthaburi, a territory within the metropolitan area. It is divided into several sub-districts called “amphoes.” Among them, Pak Kret is particularly popular among foreigners. It hosts a renowned international school.
The average price for property for sale in Bangkok is THB 6.4 million (USD 182,500). Over the past year, the cost has increased by 20.6%. The average price per square meter for housing is THB 128,500 (USD 3,650).
If you want to rent apartments in Thailand, the kingdom’s capital can be an excellent choice for a vibrant life in a dynamic metropolis. On average, prices can be described as follows:
- THB 36,000 (USD 1,000) and above – luxury apartments with three rooms and more
- From THB 21,000 to 35,000 (USD 600-1,000) – apartments with one- to two-bedrooms and an excellent location
- From THB 11,000 to 20,000 (USD 300-550) – apartments with one bedroom
- From THB 5,000 to 10,000 (USD 150-280) – studio apartment
Please note that these are average prices. They can be significantly higher if the complex has additional amenities, designer renovation in the residence or services provided.
Siam Square is considered to be the heart of the commercial district, with some of the largest shopping malls in Bangkok located here, including Siam Center, Siam Paragon, and CentralWorld. The open-air boulevard allows for shopping among hundreds of fashionable boutiques, market stalls and cosy cafes.
Siam Center is the most popular part of Siam Square with shops in Bangkok. Here, you can find dozens of sections for Thai designers as well as international fashion brands. Half the pleasure of shopping is simply exploring the location: LEDs, TV screens and stairs that light up in the dark are widely used here.
Siam Paragon is another popular spot in Siam Square for affluent visitors. This luxurious mega-mall of glass and steel has over 250 shops, one of the largest aquariums in Southeast Asia, a cinema with 16 halls and numerous exquisite cafes and restaurants.
CentralWorld has almost everything for entertainment: from boutiques of branded clothing to the SF World Cinema theatre with 15 halls. Here, you will find high-tech gadgets, bookstores, pavilions with designer furniture and imported products as well as over 100 restaurants and even an ice rink.
Platinum Fashion Mall is a shopping centre specialising in retail and wholesale clothing and accessories. In this six-storey complex, there is everything for those who love to dress beautifully and stylishly.
Markets in Bangkok are good places for not only buying things cheaper but also for getting to know the country’s culture. If you want to get closer to the city, it is worth visiting the largest market in the kingdom, Chatuchak. Its area covers 14 acres, with 15,000 shops and stalls.
Food in Bangkok is a real art. Fantastic dishes can be found in street food stalls as well as in premium restaurants awarded a Michelin star. To experience the true taste of Thailand, you should explore both avenues.
It’s impossible to stroll through the streets without encountering a tiny cart or food stall, regardless of the time of day. After dark, head to food markets like Chinatown, Silom, Soi Rangnam, Samyan, On Nut, and Talat Phlu to try local delicacies. Here, you can buy the world-famous pad Thai noodles and tom yum goong (spicy shrimp soup). Other dishes worth trying include tom kha (coconut curry), pad see ew (fried noodles with soy sauce), and pad ka prao (meat with basil, chilli, and garlic).
80/20 is a restaurant in Bangkok with a modern Thai-style menu, suitable for casual gatherings and special occasions. Aksorn is an establishment with authentic cuisine, awarded a Michelin star, for exquisite dinners with friends and family. 100 Mahaseth is a cafe in Bangkok offering traditional Thai cuisine.
The city also has establishments with dishes from different countries. For example, Watthana is a wine bar with Italian cuisine. The place has established itself as a venue for romantic dates. Gaa is a cafe that offers innovative Indian cuisine with Thai ingredients.
Kindergartens and schools in Bangkok can offer quality education for your children.
Amnuay Silpa is a kindergarten in Bangkok for children who are proficient in the basics of several languages. Nist International School is an international school offering a primary program. Saint Andrews School is an international institution with education based on the British program. Heathfield is an international school with a nursery and kindergarten, following an English-language curriculum. Ekamai is an international school for young children with a Montessori curriculum.
People visit Thailand not only for tourism but also for specialised treatment. Hospitals in Bangkok offer quality medical services in many fields. The best medical clinics in Bangkok include:
- MAXi – cosmetic surgery clinic;
- Yanhee Hospital;
- International Clinic MedConsult;
- Samitivej Sukhumvit Hospital;
- La Grace Clinic;
- DGB Clinic;
- Siripong Plastic Surgery;
- Aimeris Clinic;
- Vii Aesthetic Clinic.
Skytrain is an excellent choice for moving between busy areas, especially along Sukhumvit Road, where traffic often comes to a standstill. This above-ground metro is the most convenient public transport in Bangkok.
The metro is a bit slower than the above-ground train, but this mode of transport is also useful. Over 400,000 passengers use the rapid trains daily to avoid traffic jams on highways. Currently, the metro has two lines: blue (the busiest) and purple.
For a stay in Bangkok, you can choose one of these hotels:
- The Peninsula Bangkok – suitable even for the most demanding guests
- The Standard, Bangkok Mahanakhon – offers a variety of nightlife option
- Mandarin Oriental Bangkok – local cuisine will delight gourmands
- The Siam – ideal for couples
- Shangri-La Bangkok – family-friendly hotel with a good children’s program
- Shanghai Mansion – budget but a quality hotel with good service
- Capella Bangkok – conveniently located near major tourist destinations
- Kimpton Maa-Lai Bangkok – provides excellent service
There are no beaches in Bangkok. However, this doesn’t mean you have to choose between the capital and a seaside villa in Thailand. Fortunately, pristine beaches are located near the metropolis.
In the city of Chonburi, which is practically a suburb of the capital of Thailand, there is a beautiful beach with white sand that stretches for kilometres. What’s even more pleasant is that you can reach Suvarnabhumi International Airport from here in less than an hour. There are plenty of beachside cafes and restaurants, making it a great place to spend a day by the sea.
Ko Chang is the best of the islands that can be reached by land in a few hours. Here, you will find forest-covered areas with waterfalls, bays lined with beautiful beaches and numerous coastal hotels for any budget. The journey is not short, but it’s worth it. To get here, you will need to drive five hours to the ferry port, and then take a 45-minute sea journey—and you are there.
A few hours’ drive from the capital, there are beaches free from tourists, such as Bang Pu in the western province of Prachuap Khiri Khan. There are several hotels here, and the mountains, protected as a national park, are filled with the songs of more than 355 different bird species. The place is just over a three-hour drive by car or, more conveniently, a four-hour train ride through Hua Hin.
Khao San Road is undoubtedly one of the most well-known sights in Bangkok, where locals and foreign guests gather to spend a vibrant night in numerous nightclubs.
No gallery can compete with River City Bangkok, a five-storey building housing 80 venues, from art exhibitions to antique boutiques. Among the outstanding shops is Tang Contemporary Art, featuring artworks from China and Southeast Asia, as well as the vast RCB Galleria River City gallery, which always hosts large-scale exhibitions.
The Museum of Siam is an interactive platform located in the former Ministry of Commerce building, combining play and learning. Here, through digital interactive stands, you will learn about the history of Thailand and the uniqueness of its people.
The Grand Palace is the main attraction in Bangkok. The building used to serve as the royal residence, and now it is a famous historical complex popular with tourists. The Temple of the Reclining Buddha, or Wat Pho, is located next to the Grand Palace and is another well-known location. Here, a 46-metre Buddha statue is installed, attracting pilgrims and travellers from around the world.
