How to travel inside Bangkok? Of course, you can take a taxi or a metro! Both of them are affordable and comfortable in Bangkok. But they probably aren’t the most fun way to do it. Tours, buses and tuk-tuk can...

There is one that stores dead human parts and then there is one with a lot of Batman toys. But this one is with a lot of cars and automobiles. It's called the Jesada Technik Museum. And not...

It’s called Thai Human Imagery Museum. And it is as good, if not better. Sadly it isn’t that accessible. Which also makes it less popular, even amongst the locals. I wouldn’t go that far only to visit this place though. However, if you are in the area, maybe you can...

I have had many people ask me about ‘the pink temple with a dragon around it’. This one is actually Wat Samphran that has gathered some popularity in the recent past. But it is still not mainstream. And it’s hard to reach. So you may find it all to yourself. But is...

I am a fan of their products. These are gorgeous silks made into elegant products of scarves, shawls and bags in gemstone colours, shapes and sizes. So if you are curious about...

Most tourists like to hang around the cultural centre. With its rich heritage spots like the Grand Palace, Wat Pho, Wat Arun it attracts the most eyes. But very...

While I will not say it is a must-visit, it still is a charming place in a new concept. Moreover mostly young locals visit the place . In recent times, several empty warehouses and crumbling mansions have been converted...

Mainly due to the large golden statue of the reclining Buddha. Often clubbed with a visit to the Grand Palace, a visit to Wat Pho along with Wat Arun will probably somewhat satiate up your cultural appetite about the Siam...
