Grand Palace. Be sure to hire one of the guides out front. They know a lot about the history and meaning of the place and will make your visit much more meaningful for 5-10 bucks. Do not listen to anyone who says the Grand Palace is closed for a special occasion, etc. Also do not accept a ride in any tuk-tuk or taxi near this area that offers to take you to a gem shop or on a tour of any kind. This applies for Wat Po as well.

Vertigo. Located on the roof of the Banyan Tree hotel this restaurant has gorgeous views of all of Bangkok. It's a steak / continental restaurant with pretty good food but the main reason to go is the view. They also have a bar if you're not up for dinner.

We had booked a holiday to Far East (HOLIDAY TO SINGAPORE, BANGKOK, KL) by paying full advance 4 months back with Orange holidays in Bangalore. When we wanted to go now on the trip (HOLIDAY TO SINGAPORE, BANGKOK, KL), they kept saying we will get confirmation since last 10 days. We applied for leave and got ready. Orange holidays said 3 days before schedule date of departure that they cant get confirmations on air ticket. Finally we demanded a full refund for which Orange holidays agreed. They have given us a cheque yesterday for the full amount of Rs 50,000 which has bounced. You can’t get anyone on the phone, they are always evasive. They only come out with full page advertisements to lure innocent people. This is to advise all fellow Indians and travelers not to trust these cheats. ORANGE HOLIDAYS AND THE WHOLE GROUP ORANGE PROPERTIES ORANGE RESORTS LOOK LIKE THEY ARE BIG CHEATS. BEWARE!

I went to Thailand last May with two of my good friends. It was the best trip of my life. We stayed for three weeks and I wanted to stay longer. Our first night we made friends with this thai dude who ended up chillin with us the whole three weeks. Thats what I suggest doing. We saw 100's of temples visited 1000's of bars no white men dare to enter and even got an inside look at the slums that house some of the most genuine people you will ever meet. Thailand's people I think are the key to this beautiful country. Everyone treats eachother like family. Besides what other people have written EACH THE FOOD OFF THE STREETS. It's by far some of the greatest food you will ever eat in your life. I was absorbed by the culture and honestly fell in love with this country. I'm already planning my trip back soon to see all my good friends. Peace.
