Bangkok has a feast of attractions to offer. The city is dotted with 400
glittering Buddhist temples of great beauty and fascination, magnificent
palaces, classical dance extravaganzas, numerous shopping centres and
traditional ways of life, especially along the "Venice of the East" timeless
canals and the Chao Phraya River of the "River of Kings" winding through the
city. Bangkok is worth taking a trip along its waters before exploring further
into different canals to take a glimpse of old Bangkok.
