If you have some well-deserved vacation time coming up, then travelling to Thailand and particularly Bangkok, provides you with the perfect destination to really kick back and relax. The country is enjoying more visitors every single year, and there must be a good reason for this. It has changed over the years, and now families enjoy their vacation time there. Even though it is a busy metropolis, getting around the city has never been easier than it is right now.
The other great news is that there are a number of top-quality Sukhumvit hotels that can cater to your accommodation needs. They offer rooms for the single traveller, for couples out there, and for families as well. There are many things you should know about the City of Angels that you might not be aware of, up until this point in time.
- The crime rate is very low – We all want to feel safe and secure when we travel, and thankfully, Bangkok can offer us this peace of mind. Like any big city in the world, there are some undesirable elements, but for the most part, it is an incredibly safe place to be. One of the most dangerous things is the roads, but thanks to the modern public transport system, it’s so easy to get from one place to another, even in the busiest part of the city. There are links to the airport if you need them, and directly to the city centre as well.
- There is a lot of great food – The city itself is famous for its ‘street food’ and many people leave many positive reviews on the Internet all the time. The Thai noodles are to die for, and any other kind of Thai meal is incredibly tasty. They also have some of the top restaurants in the world, if you fancy something a little bit more upmarket. The bar scene is incredibly lively, and you are guaranteed a great night out, no matter where you end up.
- It can get a little hot – There are particular times of the year that you need to be aware of, when the temperature can get quite high. Some people love the hot weather, while others try to avoid this time of year. Whatever your particular needs are, the temperature fluctuates throughout the year, so do your homework and choose wisely. It is recommended that you use the public transport system to get around, or you can negotiate a taxi for the full day, to take you to all of the popular tourist attractions. It’s a lot more affordable than many might think.
The temptation is to go straight to Khao San Road, but you must fight this temptation because there are other parts of the city that offer excellent value for money. The Sukhumvit area is especially good, and it’s where you will find the best hotels. Whatever you decide to do, Bangkok waits for you.
