Bangkok is the capital of Thailand, and by far, its largest city — with a population of over eleven million inhabitants. Its high-rise buildings, heavy traffic congestion, intense heat, and naughty nightlife may not immediately give you the best impression — but don't let that mislead you. It is one of Asia's most cosmopolitan cities with magnificent temples and palaces, authentic canals, busy markets, and a vibrant nightlife that has something for everyone.

Ayutthaya, an ancient capital and modern city in the Central Plains of Thailand, 85 km north of Bangkok.

Temple of Dawn (Wat Arun) is situated on the west bank of the Chao Phraya River. Wat Arun is one of the best known landmarks in Thailand.

Of course, Bangkok will never be complete without food and shopping.
