Bangkok mixes ornate temples such as Wat Pho and the Grand Palace with the markets, food stalls and river scenery along the Chao Phraya. Visitors can explore the old city, browse the Chatuchak Weekend Market or take a boat along the canals. See the official Tourism Authority of Thailand guide to Bangkok for more ideas.
