    The travel experience was incredibly fascinating and unlike anything I had ever felt before. Seeing buildings that resemble temples in Indonesia but with the unique architectural style of Thailand, filled with art and bright colors, made them even more beautiful. There are many buildings that are allowed to be entered, but you must still follow the specified etiquette, making the journey more meaningful

    Been here 3 times. The vibe is nice, the view is nice, the environment is nice!
    Just the food here is a little bit more expensive than normal night markets. thanks the ferry-wheel which has discounts for people over 60s so my mom could enjoy the views from above…

    The wow park was lots of fun, with plenty of great experiments. This is guided in small groups (ours was 3 children + parents) where the guide talks through each experiment and explains them.

    I thought the science lesson (added cost) was better than the museum and i fully recommend doing that - our 6 and 9 year olds still talk about it

    It's on the 5th floor of the shopping mall

    You have to book ahead or you may have to wait to be let in (we had to wait over 90 minutes)

    If you don’t mind the spiral stairs, the long walk up has an amazing view of Bangkok and its surrounding buildings. The temple itself is a little spacey.

    Second time here.
    The place is just lovely to sip cold sugar cane juice and spend a few hours but don’t forget to visit the artisans around the area too.

    📍 Open daily: 1000 - 2100
    📍 Reservations required (via LINE app or hotel concierge)

    📍 CASH only

    Located an hour away from the hustle and bustle of Bangkok is this Maldives-inspired cafe. Similar to the over water bungalows in the Maldives, guests walk along the elevated walkways across turquoise waters.

    There are 4 zones to choose from - building, swing, bridge and bar zone.

    The “building” features hammocks on the 2nd floor hanging directly over the water.

    The private villa/sheltered pavilion features a swing.

    The bridge has no umbrellas and is only open for dine-in after 1600.

    The bar zone is located away from the water and defeats the purpose of why we were there.

    Reservations are required. I downloaded the LINE app specifically for this reason, and although I reached out, I didn’t receive any response. Instead, I asked the hotel concierge to assist.

    To secure a reservation, a deposit of 300 THB per person is required.

    I’m still a little miffed that the cafe responded to the hotel via LINE, but never responded to me.

    The check-in process went smoothly and we were given a ticket. However, not long after we sat down to wait, hordes of other tourists arrived.

    When the cafe opened, they rushed to sit at the private villas. The staff wasn’t very helpful with directing us to our respective villa, and just pointed in a general direction.

    I had to flag down another staff member who finally pointed out our reserved villa. The other tourists that occupied our villa realized they were in our space and left without a word.

    Menu prices a bit expensive for Thailand standards and there are added fees - 7% VAT and 10% service charge.

    Service was SLOW! I saw others in the building being served drinks and we didn’t even receive a menu! I flagged down a staff member to request a menu AND to order. D*mm!

    The dishes were tasty and better than expected.

    I used to live near RCA Area, so every weekend I normally hang out around that area. We normally start the night with light drinking in Paul Panich, and as time goes by go to the clubs like Route 66 or Onyx.

    Next to the temple is a little lake garden where you can feed turtles. This was definitely the best thing we did in Bangkok with our 6 and 9 year olds. It was such a quiet and relaxing place, and just very enjoyable way to spend 30-60 minutes feeding them on sticks. The entrance is free, and the boxes of food are 20b each and sticks are provided. It's largely covered. It's on the other side of the building where the little kiosk is located, before you get to the temple itself

    We took a tuktuk for 200 from the grand palace to get here.

    A couple of reviews have said it isn't clear why the model is here. As if historic Thai Kings should be expected to justify themselves to a modern audience...

    Some of the model shows signs of wear, which I've no doubt is to be expected after years of being rained on - so I wonder how much of the detail of the model Is original....?

    Our hotel was on this busy road and it is extremely entertaining. It runs parallel to the river so there’s all the benefits that that brings.

    The road itself is extremely busy so take care crossing. It is lined with shops of all types, bars and restaurants.

    There are also loads of food courts which serve delicious street food at very reasonable prices. We really enjoyed this area of Bangkok.

    I only came here as part of a tour. Really not worth a stop unless you want to see and learn about Thai funerals. They tend to do this in the evening apparently between 19:00 and 19:30 so come then if you are interested. I would definitely not come otherwise.

    We made a trip here together with visiting the nearby Wat Suthat on a Sunday morning. Sweating under the hot weather it took us about 20 mins from The Golden Mount to here. One can see a glimpse of the bright red structure while walking along the roads/alleys leading to the City Hall square! The Giant Swing (Sao Ching Cha) was originally erected in 1784 as part of the Brahmin compound of shrines as a religious structure. The poles were erected in 1919 by the Louis T Leonowens Company and subsequently the rickety timbers were replaced by the structure presently. Standing at over 69ft (21 meters) tall, there was a few visitors beside us, took some nice photos and its surrounding. A brief 20 mins stay should suffice.
    WE proceed to Chinatown from here which is a station away. .
