An extensive Guide to Bangkok with unbiased tourist information, travel reviews, helpful hints and tips! Here at 1uk.net we give a detailed summary of tourist information in Bangkok on key facts, maps, pictures, weather information, attractions, events, shopping, restaurants, travel and much more.

Home to nearly 8 million people, and the capital of Thailand since 1782, Bangkok is one of the largest and most vibrant cities in the World. A place where old and new come together like nowhere else on Earth, and vast buildings tower over temples and shrines, and markets on land and on water attract people to bargain and barter over food and beautiful artefacts.

Bangkok is a giant city, spreading out over some 1500 sq KM of Southern Thailand, although much of interest is centred on the waters of the Chao Praya River that is the city's lifeblood.

Sometimes the streets are clogged with traffic for hours, sometimes the air is too thick to breathe, and sometimes the rain seems to fall forever and the roads become streams, but once you are in Bangkok, none of this matters. The fact is, Bangkok is a place where no matter what happens around you, the distractions of the city make you excited just to be there, and leave you with a smile on your face that is hard to shift.

There is a nightlife that is nothing short of legendary, with whole streets filled with bars and clubs; shopping districts as big as whole cities where you can find almost anything that you could possibly want in either glitzy shops or in grimy markets. Bangkok is a city where old and new, east and west collide, a city of contrasts, where modern glass and steel skyscrapers stretch as high as you imagination, and reflected on their crystal surfaces, you can see the temples and monuments of a long, rich history.
