Best time to fly

The best time to visit Bangkok is during the cool and dry season, from November to February. The weather is pleasant, with lower humidity and temperatures, making it ideal for sightseeing. Songkran, the Thai New Year, in April is a lively festival but also the hottest time to visit.

Things to do in Bangkok

Visit the Grand Palace, the former royal residence and a complex of stunning temples and buildings.

Wander through the bustling Chatuchak Weekend Market, offering a wide array of goods from clothing to souvenirs. Take a longtail boat ride along the Chao Phraya River, experiencing the city from a unique perspective.

Food to try
