5 days in Bangkok Itinerary

Enjoy cultural, historical, and culinary exploration during your holiday in Bangkok, the capital of Thailand and the most populous city in the country.

Head to Chatuchak Weekend Market and MBK Centerfor plenty of shopping. You'll explore the less-touristy side of things at Ayuthaya Ruins and Wat Chaiwattanarm. Change things up with these side-trips from Bangkok: Ayutthaya (Ayutthaya Historical Park, Wat Phra Sri Sanphet, & more). There's much more to do: see the interesting displays at Jim Thompson House, browse the different shops at Central World Plaza, take a stroll through Chinatown - Bangkok, and make a trip to Khao San Road.

For maps, ratings, reviews, and tourist information, refer to the Bangkok trip planner.

If you are flying in from India, the closest major airports are Suvarnabhumi Airport and Don Mueang International Airport. Expect a daytime high around 41°C in April, and nighttime lows around 31°C. Wrap up your sightseeing on the 9th (Sun) early enough to drive back home.
