I’m a solo backpacker, Any tips on where to go in Bangkok?
If you have times to explore things in Bangkok I would recommend you to go see this. There's called Wat Paknam Phasi Chareon. There's two way to visit by taxi or boat.
Places to visit -
Nightlife -
Patpong night market (parts of the deer hunter were filmed here)
Khaosan Road (Backpacker party area)
Nana (Lots of bars all together)
Soi cowboy (apocalypse now scene was filmed here)
Shopping -
Silom complex
Icon siam
Siam Paragon
Emquartier
Chutachak market
The train market
Other activities -
River cruise
Railway or floating market
Mahanakhon tower
Sealife world
Muay Thai Rajadamnern Boxing Stadium
Grand palace bangkok
Wat Pho
Ayutthaya temple
China Town
Ideas for rhe day -
Walk along Tha-Tien> royal palace>tha-chang-wat arun-wat poh
End up chilling at Khaosan
Or
Walking through Talad-Noi area > Charoen Krung > end up with some beers at ASIATIQUE OR china town (up to your walk direction)
For weekend
Cafe hopping in the morning at Ari> Chatujak market > Suan Rodfai > end your night with easy food at central Ladprao or bars around Union mall
The must go:
- Saxophone pubs (Victory monument BTS) thusday is a big swing band…you will love it
- Chula 100years park + Ban Tad Thong food street (Samyan MRT or national stadium BTS)
- China town (Samyod MRT)
- Talad noi ( Hua lum Phong MRT)
DONT:
- Take a tuktuk or boat taxi nearby grand palace or pier around there, also Khaosan
Better walk to main road and call one or “grab application”
- eat side dish veggies on street food….50% chance to get diarrhea
- walk along sukhumvit road alone after 1 am LOL
- forget your mask…. Here still a restriction in many places

We did a small group bicycle tour that took us off the beaten path - if you have $40 USD to spend. Also do not miss the reclining buddha, and hidden away rooftop bars at night.
