Leave the backpack at home, because Bangkok is no longer the domain of gap-year students. Thanks to affordable packages and some serious upgrades in the hotel market, it’s now a booming destination for families and couples too.

It’s a place where the next surprise is just around the corner, and you never know where you’ll end up.
