Bangkok,
Thailand
Despite the modern skyline, some districts retain their old-world charm. The Grand Palace and Wat Pra Kaew have dazzled visitors for over 200 years, and no visitor should miss a tour around the teak masterpieces of Vimanmek Mansion, Suan Pakkard and Jim
Thompson's House. The Chao Phraya River hosts a number of inspiring sights. Long-tail boats take sightseers past famous landmarks like Wat Arun (Temple of Dawn) and through adjacent canal communities.
For shoppers, large department stores offer VAT refunds for tourists, and market traders bargain with grace. Narayanaphand stocks beautiful handicrafts, Pratunam Market is great for garments, and Patpong Road and the Weekend Market (beside Chatuchak Park) sell almost everything imaginable.

temples and palaces stand side by side with
Romanesque concrete skyscrapers and charming wooden
houses. And while the main thoroughfares are choked
with traffic and fumes, nearby side roads contain
tranquil houses nestled among lush gardens. Love it
and hate it, you can't ignore or forget it -- read
