Introduction
Thailand, in Thai, is referred to as Krung Thep Maha Nakhon the land of the mystic memories!! The exotic
capital of Thailand is Bangkok. The country is a part of the “Golden Triangle”. The borders meet with
those of Laos and Myanmar. A traveler once told that there is no best time to visit Bangkok. When the
mind wanders and the soul reaches out to move to some exotic destination, Bangkok is the place to be!!
However local guides and weather forecasts suggest that the best time to visit this country is late
November and till early April.
This is the time when the land starts cooling after the monsoon retreats.
Hospitality : The country has a number of airports, among which “The Suvarnabhumi International Airport”
is the main getaway to the World. Bangkok is a blend of heritage, culture, modern facilities and age-old
traditions. These traditions are so rich and mind blogging that tourists get attracted to Bangkok like
honeybees to flowers!! There is an adage that says that the place never sleeps!! It’s an amazing
experience to visit Bangkok.
Some of the highlights for which tourists come time and again are the
beautiful nightlife, the floating markets, the temples, the monasteries, river cruises, toy trains and what
not!! Each and every place evokes memories and a sense of fulfillment to the traveler. The welcome
meted out by the locals and the hospitality given leads to unforgettable experiences.
Bangkok is the destination for travelers from all locations, irrespective of their age and affinity towards anything. There
are special packages available for newlywed couples under the heading “Honeymoon Packages”. If
there is a family with kids along, there is certainly a package offering a “Family Package”, which includes
the requirements of the children and their “to do” list. Not to be left out, there are a number of tourists,
with tight purse strings and on a tight budget. There is certainly one for them too, under the name “Budget
Packages”. Though these packages are segregated, it does not mean that the hospitality or the warmth is
different. It’s the same for all.
Tourists are treated literally as Gods and all are treated equally. No wonder
that Bangkok attracts one of the highest numbers of tourists in the world every month, every year and for
years together. Seasons The country has three seasons to celebrate. The hottest seasons are from late
March, April, and May. This is followed by the rainy season, which gets over by late November.
November till March is considered the best weather to explore Bangkok, Thailand on foot. Wandering
along by foot, is an interesting experience, as the tourist gets to taste local authentic Thai cuisine and that
too served hot directly from the shops on the street. Conclusion Bangkok is one of the top tourist
destinations because of the tourist-friendly policies of the Government of Thailand and the locals. A
country is recognized by its people and so is Thailand. One visit is too less to understand Bangkok, the
land of “mysticism”.
