Bangkok is a city to overload the senses. Streets are crowded by tuk-tuks (motorized tri-shaws) and the occasional elephant weaving through congested traffic. Entire families pile onto motorbikes while monks clad in bright orange robes patiently make their way through the crowds. Streetside food stalls sell fried grasshoppers, while the spicy smells of Thai cooking waft from the restaurants. Don't miss getting a Thai massage or seeing the Wat Pho with its golden Buddhas and marbled floors.
