Visit the highly revered image of Buddha carved from just one piece of jade, which sits majestically within the heart of the temple itself. Other unmissable sights include the Damnern Saduak Floating Market and the Phra Pathom Chedi, the tallest pagoda in the world. No matter how long your stay in Bangkok, do take the time to sample the cuisine at the largest restuarant in the world, Tam Nak Thai Restaurant, where the waiters are on rolerskates and the authentic Thai food is richly spiced and aromatic! Also, visit latuchak Weekend and Patpong Night Market for 'genuine' designer watches and clothing bargains and finally, climb to the top of Wat Saket for an exhilarating view of the old city and its surrounding monasteries. We recommend at least 5 nights in Bangkok and for those staying longer, a trip to the beautiful southern beaches of Ko Samui and an evening spent at Thai boxing match are a must! |
