In this sprawling city, nothing, as Oscar Wilde once said, succeeds like excess. If you want more, you’ll get more. Few can resist its heady mix of grand temples, blissful spas, sprawling shopping malls, lively markets, and boisterous nightclubs. East may meet West here, but it’s the Western way that pushes everything to its giddy heights. For new visitors, Bangkok can be the amusement park of their dreams. This capital city is like no other in Southeast Asia. It’s rich in culture, offering palaces and wats that gleam so dazzlingly that you can’t help but be drawn into them, like the proverbial moth to a flame. At the same time, it’s also filled with modern-city thrills that can be both decadent and deluxe. If Bangkok is a powerful force of opposites, let it attract (you)!
