The city of Bangkok has for decades been known as a shopaholic’s paradise. Housing a plethora of malls and markets selling all sorts of good with all sorts of price ranges, the shopping experience here is truly one of a kind. Amidst the world of shopping there is a colorful and exotic culture, a rich and amazing wild life, delicious cuisines and so much more. This city called Krung Thep in Thai is certainly as intoxicating as it is diverse. There are infinite layers of Thai wonders that requires a thorough exploration if you want to reveal the many hidden secrets within. This bustling city houses a number of Bangkok city hotels which are actually the more popular option among many since it affords easy access to the many shopping and sightseeing destinations. In hotels like the Atrium Bangkok, tour packages are even organized for you to ensure you cover all the important sights in the city.

 

There are museums, monuments, galleries and so much more that you may even get lost in the history of this country. The National Museum, the grand palace, the museum of royal barges, the Suan Pakkad palace, the Silpa Birasri Museum and the morbid but interesting Corrections museum are a few attractions of this nature. There is history and interesting artifacts within each location that it demands a good deal of time from your holiday agenda. To absorb the religious values of Bangkok, take a tour through the many interesting temples that adorn this city. The Wat Arun, the temple of the reclining Buddha and the Wat Prakeaw are to name a few.

 

Shopping in Bangkok is the city’s most renowned attraction. If you are looking for comfort and luxury you are better off exploring the many malls in the city. Gaysorn Plaza and the Central Chidlom department store are a few high class malls in Chidlom. Ratchaprasong is another good location for malls. If you want to try out typical street markets, the Chatuchak market, and the Khao San Road are two excellent options.
