Bangkok 4K - Driving Downtown - World's #1 Visited City
Tuesday afternoon drive around the modern city center of Bangkok, the world #1 most visited city. Bangkok lacks a single distinct central business district. Instead, the areas of Siam and Ratchaprasong (an intersection, and a shopping district named after it, in Pathum Wan District) serve as a central shopping district containing many of the bigger malls and commercial areas in the city. Enjoy! Starting Point: .
Bangkok is the capital and most populous city of Thailand and is among the world's top tourist destinations, and has been named the world's most visited city consistently in several international rankings. The Asian investment boom in the 1980s and 1990s led many multinational corporations to locate their regional headquarters in Bangkok. The city is now a regional force in finance and business. It is an international hub for transport and health care, and has emerged as a centre for the arts, fashion, and entertainment. The city is known for its street life and cultural landmarks. The Grand Palace and Buddhist temples including Wat Arun and Wat Pho stand in contrast with other tourist attractions such as the nightlife scenes of Khaosan Road and Patpong.
Bangkok's rapid growth coupled with little urban planning has resulted in a haphazard cityscape and inadequate infrastructure. An inadequate road network, despite an extensive expressway network, together with substantial private car usage, have led to chronic and crippling traffic congestion, which caused severe air pollution in the 1990s. The city has since turned to public transport in an attempt to solve the problem. Five rapid transit lines are now in operation, with more systems under construction or planned by the national government and the Bangkok Metropolitan Administration.
Bangkok is known in Thai as Krung Thep Maha Nakhon or simply Krung Thep. The city occupies 1,568.7 square kilometres (605.7 sq mi) in the Chao Phraya River delta in central Thailand, and has a population of over eight million, or 12.6 percent of the country's population. Over fourteen million people (22.2 percent) lived within the surrounding Bangkok Metropolitan Region at the 2010 census, making Bangkok the nation's primate city, significantly dwarfing Thailand's other urban centres in importance.
Bangkok traces its roots to a small trading post during the Ayutthaya Kingdom in the 15th century, which eventually grew and became the site of two capital cities: Thonburi in 1768 and Rattanakosin in 1782. Bangkok was at the heart of the modernization of Siam, later renamed Thailand, during the late-19th century, as the country faced pressures from the West. The city was at the centre of Thailand's political struggles throughout the 20th century, as the country abolished absolute monarchy, adopted constitutional rule, and underwent numerous coups and several uprisings. The city grew rapidly during the 1960s through the 1980s and now exerts a significant impact on Thailand's politics, economy, education, media and modern society.
Tourism
Bangkok is one of the world's top tourist destinations. Of 162 cities worldwide, MasterCard ranked Bangkok as the top destination city by international visitor arrivals in its Global Destination Cities Index 2018, ahead of London, with just over 20 million overnight visitors in 2017. This was a repeat of its 2017 ranking (for 2016). As the main gateway through which visitors arrive in Thailand, Bangkok is visited by the majority of international tourists to the country.
Among Bangkok's well-known sights are the Grand Palace and major Buddhist temples, including Wat Phra Kaew, Wat Pho, and Wat Arun. The Giant Swing and Erawan Shrine demonstrate Hinduism's deep-rooted influence in Thai culture. Vimanmek Mansion in Dusit Palace is famous as the world's largest teak building, while the Jim Thompson House provides an example of traditional Thai architecture. Other major museums include the Bangkok National Museum and the Royal Barge National Museum. Cruises and boat trips on the Chao Phraya and Thonburi's canals offer views of some of the city's traditional architecture and ways of life on the waterfront.
Shopping venues, many of which are popular with both tourists and locals, range from the shopping centres and department stores concentrated in Siam and Ratchaprasong to the sprawling Chatuchak Weekend Market. Taling Chan Floating Market is among the few such markets in Bangkok. Yaowarat is known for its shops as well as street-side food stalls and restaurants, which are also found throughout the city. Khao San Road has long been famous as a destination for backpacker tourism, with its budget accommodation, shops and bars attracting visitors from all over the world.

City Description:
Bangkok, Thailand’s capital, is a large city known for ornate shrines and vibrant street life. The boat-filled Chao Phraya River feeds its network of canals, flowing past the Rattanakosin royal district, home to opulent Grand Palace and its sacred Wat Phra Kaew Temple. Nearby is Wat Pho Temple with an enormous reclining Buddha and, on the opposite shore, Wat Arun Temple with its steep steps and Khmer-style spire.Traditional teak buildings like the grand Vimanmek Palace and the residence-turned-museum Jim Thompson House contrast with the city’s skyline of modern high-rises. Shopping options range from the upscale mega-malls of the Ratchaprasong district to the thousands of tiny stalls at overflowing Chatuchak Weekend Market. The city’s renowned food scene spans traditional street-cart snacks – spicy, sour, sweet and salty – to upscale international restaurants. Bangkok is also known for its exuberant nightlife, with venues ranging from swanky rooftop lounges to basic backpacker bars and nightclubs of the notorious Patpong district.
Weather and Events:
Bangkok is a year-round destination, though most visitors arrive Nov–Feb when the weather is warm and relatively dry. Temperatures rise Mar–May, with rainy season May–Nov. Major festivals include the celebrations for Songkran/Thai New Year (Apr) and Loi Krathong (Nov), the “festival of lights” that sees thousands of tiny candles launched in floats along the river. Dec 5 marks the late King Bhumibol Adulyadej’s Birthday as well as National Day and National Father’s Day.

Pathumwan District, Ratchaprasong, Bangkok, Thailand. ( 5 )
Pathum Wan is an exciting area of Bangkok in Thailand. You could easily spend a whole day here and still not see everything. Pathum Wan or Pathumwan is one of the 50 districts ( or Khet as they are known in Thailand ) of Bangkok, Thailand. The district is bounded by seven other districts Ratchathewi ( across the canal Khlong Saen Saeb ), Watthana, Khlong Toei, Sathon, Bang Rak, Pom Prap Sattru Phai ( across the canal Khlong Phadung Krung Kasem ), and Dusit.
The embassies of Switzerland, at 35, North Wireless Rd, the United Kingdom at 14 Wireless Road and the United States at 120-122, Wireless Rd are located in Pathum Wan
The district is sub divided into four sub districts. Rong Mueang Wang Mai Pathum Wan and Lumphini
The district was established in 1914 and it is named after a Buddhist temple Wat Pathum Wanaramand in the nearby Sa Pathum Palace. Both being built to the order of King Mongkut ~ Rama IV and was so named, because of the abundance of lotus flowers in Khlong Saen Saeb during his reign. Pathum Wan is best known for it's shopping centres. Siam Centre is the oldest one in the area which opened in 1973, this is now joined by Siam Discovery Centre and Siam Paragon ( which opened in December 2005 ) and Paragon Cineplex & IMAX.
One of the most crowded and the most popular to both local people and tourists is MBK Centre also known as Mah Boon Krong. Here you will find perhaps the largest collection of mobile / cell phones for sale around Bangkok. It is packed with shops offering fashion items, mobile / cell phones and souvenirs. A covered, air conditioned pedestrian bridge over Phaya Thai Road connects to a congested sister shopping centre, the Bonanza Mall, which mostly sells inexpensive clothing and fashion accessories. MBK can be found at 444 Phaya Thai Rd. Pathum Wan, Bangkok on the western corner of Pathum Wan intersection , with Rama I Road and Phaya Thai Road.
At eight stories high, the centre hosts around 2,000 stores and services, including the 4 story Tokyu department store, restaurants and entertainment. MBK Centre, opened in 1985, and is one of the oldest shopping malls in Asia, and was the largest when it was built. It is located on land leased from the adjacent Chulalongkorn University. This lease was renewed in 2002. The centre was named after the parents of the developer Sirichai Bulakul, Mah & Boonkrong, whose statues grace the ground floor.
Floors 1 to 3: Clothing and shoes, leather goods, cosmetics and hairstyling, toys, gold and jewellery.
Floor 4: Electronics, mobile phones, CD and MP3
Floor 5: International food hall, restaurants, furniture, photography, computing.
Floor 6: Food centre, souvenir shops
Floor 7: Movie theatres, bowling, karaoke
Floor 8: Movie theatre.
The four story Tokyu department store is located at the northern end of MBK Centre.
I have been to this huge shopping mall many times over the years while visiting Bangkok. The strange thing is, even though I know the mall well, I still manage to lose my way inside. The restaurant is huge, offering food from all over the world. You buy tickets at a counter, then exchange them at each food stall depending on what type of food you want. Any vouchers / tickets remaining must be exchanged back the same day. The number of mobile phones for sale here is vast. So many top brand names on sale along with copy ones, counterfeit to you and I. So be careful, always ask and get a receipt.
Having bought many phones from here, I have to admit I have never had a problem. Many are legitimate and honest people being in a top shopping mall. However on the lower ground if you are buying clothes , take a tape measure, many of the sizes mean nothing to foreigners. Then when you have selected any item do not lose sight of it. I was once subjected to the switch con, where the item of clothing is taken for a useless sized similar / inferior one under the counter. I only fell for that once. However it is really annoying to get home to find its nothing like the size you wanted after measuring them.
Ratchaprasong longest Sky Walk launched in Bangkok
The area around Ratchaprasong Intersection is among the best known inner-city precincts in Bangkok. Now that the 1,150 meter long Sky Walk has been built, the congestion caused by commuters, shoppers and tourist numbers has eased and the district has become much more walkable. Suchanee has this overview of the popular city intersection.

Looking for an authentic and unique adventure? Co van Kessel bike tours and boat tours provides a refreshing alternative to the tired tourist experience. We do not battle the crowds at clichéd destinations promoted in guide books, but turn your attention to quaint local communities and charming excursions into the fascinating lifestyle and culture of real Thai people. Every day is different and every tour is a surprise as we focus not on destinations, but lose ourselves in the enchantment of the journey itself.
Co van Kessel, an innovative and adventurous Dutchman, pioneered bicycle tours in Bangkok more than 30 years ago. As a longtime resident and self-professed lover of Bangkok, he understood very well the picture of accelerated urban development (gridlocked traffic, concrete towers, and choking pollution) that has plagued the recent image of the city. He also had a hunch that this was not what Bangkok or Thailand was all about.
Making it his goal to re-discover Bangkok, Co spent thousands of hours on his mountain bike exploring the vast network of local streets, alleyways, footpaths and canals between the main urban thoroughfares. What he found, lurking behind the facade of modernization, were hidden worlds of peace and tranquility, a picture of “real” Thai life that has remained unchanged for countless decades; an identity of a city that is true to the Thai people, yet largely unknown to outsiders.
Whether it’s the colorful sights and smells of the local markets, the fascinating life of locals along the canals, or the surprising existence of bountiful green belts, Co discovered the essence of what makes Bangkok one of Asia’s most captivating cities. Since then, it has been his mission to share these discoveries with the rest of the world.
What we do
Our mission at Co van Kessel Bangkok Tours is to provide our guests with a singularly unique travel experience in Thailand. All our tours use Co’s extensive topographical knowledge of the greater Bangkok area as well as his keen eye for the interesting to take you where nobody else can or will.
We aim not to bore you with talk, but to immerse you in an experience where your individual fascinations emerge.
Bicycles, boats, and our feet become the tools we use to gain access to the previously inaccessible, behind-the-scenes lifestyle of the Thai. Here the roots of an ancient culture will become evident in a way you never could have imagined.
