13. Have a drink at the Banyan Tree Hotel and enjoy the panoramic view of the city. This is also were the guys from the movie “The Hangover 2” hung out!
14. Save some of your appetite to stroll around and eat in Chinatown. It’ll make you feel like you’re in China!
15. Follow the king Rama V’s footsteps back to Vimanmek Mansion.
16. Enter the National Museum of Bangkok to travel through the country’s history, culture and traditions.
17. Enjoy the lovely floral perfume at the Thewet flower market.
18. Admire the beautiful traditional Thai architecture at Jim Thomson’s house.
19. Take a deep breath to go up the stairs of Wat Arun, the Temple of Dawn.
20. Hop on a Tuk Tuk! Be sure to grab onto something because their driving style is very “unique” (and chaotic).
21. If you’re in Bangkok between the 13th and 15th of April, prepare to be soaked in water to celebrate Songkran, Thailand’s new year. They say water cleanses everything bad that happened last year.
22. Buy natural silk in one of the many artisan factories in Bangkok.
23. Let yourself go with the enchanting rhythms of traditional Thai dances.
24. Challenge yourself and learn some Thai words. Locals will love it!
25. End your day at Nana Plaza, the red district in Bangkok (there are rumours that say that it’s the biggest one in the world).
Remember to read all about their local etiquette, customs and superstitions! You don’t want to look like a disrespectful tourist. You have all the information in our travel guide “The Traveller’s Code“.

Thats a lot of things to do and I myself have not yet done all of them. I have put some on my bucket list. In return I would highly recommend doing a bicycle tour in Bangkok. Some of those places you mentioned are included and while cycling with a guide you get to different places much faster.
Glad to be of help! Have a safe trip! 🙂
That’s a lot of things to ad on my travel program! Ahah! I am so looking forward to my trip in Bangkok… Thank you for sharing yr ideas! xxx
