Bangkok One-Day Tour Guide
Having been to Bangkok 5 times, I recommend an off-the-beaten-path one-day itinerary that can be reached by public transportation.
Tour guide: Chinatown, Erawan Shrine, icon Siam, Khao San Road, Wat Hua Lamphong, Talin Chan Floating Market. All attractions are accessible by subway and bus.
Transportation guide: BTS MRT SRT. Take the BTS to the Siam shopping district, Chit Lom to the Erawan Shrine shopping district. Silom to the Chinatown shopping district.
Accommodation recommendations
Stayed near Payathai station in the city, which is only a 20-minute walk to Siam Square and very convenient.
Hotel TRANZ 451 yuan/night
Khao San Road is a backpacker's paradise in Bangkok, with many hostels and guesthouses. Double rooms start at 100 yuan.
Shopping recommendations
SIAM
Siam Square, it took 20 minutes to walk to the square, which has a duty-free mall with a rich selection of brands. After shopping, you need to go to the airport for a tax refund. However, the products here are more diverse compared to the King Power Duty Free Shop, and the newly opened icon Siam also has an indoor floating market.
Ferris Wheel Market, which is laid out with dining areas, snack streets, shopping streets, and pier bars. It is recommended to go in the evening to enjoy the sunset over the Mekong River.
Khao San Road food street, where the bars and night markets are very lively at night.
Food recommendations: Thai snacks, seafood barbecue, tropical fruits - hundreds of varieties to choose from
Communication: You can buy Thai SIM cards for 3 days, 7 days, 30 days, or longer at 711, starting at 10 yuan.
Chinatown a place full of chinese speaker, there’s some restaurants selling cheap and expensive bird nest soups and shark fins soup. Need to survey the right place
Nice place if you like street foods. Very crowded but still worth to go, nice place for shopping too!
It's a place for day & night.. with lots of food, local shops & food. You can plan a breakfast lunch,tea break & dinner in that area as cafe & Street food around. .
Not recommended, dirty, messy, dark. There is nothing worth visiting, many Yiwu small commodities. The whole atmosphere is very uncomfortable, I feel like a Yang in the sewer, and many shops also provide various god Buddha statues with red lights, which look very strange. I left quickly. It is not recommended for Chinese people to go, it is not interesting. Foreigners are still experiencing Chinese characteristics.
Came on February 7, 2023. Bangkok Chinatown is a relatively large overseas Chinese settlement area in the world. After all, Chinese people have a long history of overseas Chinese residence in Thailand, and they are endless in the local area. In the past two years, the subway has been around, and Chinatown is a must-see attraction for Chinese people. The feeling of coming here is quite "Chinatown". After a moment of staying here, an emotion engraved in DNA completely awakened. The fireworks here are different from the "lively" in other parts of Bangkok. Also here, I saw the only SCB with a Chinese name ("Thailand Huishang Bank"). For me, there is a strange and intimate feeling here, not foreign, but more like a foreign place. The same cultural tradition makes me feel that this is no stranger to the kind of people here, although some people can't speak our language, but words and behavior are still our paradigm, especially great. In addition, it is strongly recommended that you come in the evening and taste the street snacks here, which is definitely worthy of our Chinese stomach.
The second time I came to Chinatown to punch in, it feels like 🇨🇳 in China. It is very kind and nostalgic. There is a Chinese heart and Chinese stomach. It feels like it is in China. It is very convenient to eat, shop and communicate. Basically, the merchants will have some Chinese, communication barrier-free, various bags, clothes, Shoes, small commodities, daily necessities, etc., etc., are very Chinese, love love, Chinese must punch in, let you feel at home 😊
