What is Bangkok most famous for ?

While in Bangkok you are never more than a block away from an ATM. Machines are rarely alone, either – they’re usually huddled in clusters with a few different banks’ ATMs.

Not so fun fact: ATMs in Thailand spit out your money first and your card second, resulting in many a forgotten card.

It is very convenient

If you do leave your card in an ATM, they will collect it and keep it at the branch, which should be named on the offending ATM.

Sushi is as easy to find as pad Thai

It is very convenient
We mentioned on this in the Thailand fun facts list because it truly is an anomaly how many convenience stores there are in Bangkok.

Hellooo! Massage!Hellooo! Massage!

Unlike convenience stores in the West, they aren’t ludicrously overpriced and they carry some truly convenient items, from fresh coffee to beauty products to phone credit to wine to sushi.

One of Bangkok’s newest parks is Dino Park in Phrom Phong.

The best food item by far is the 7-Eleven grilled ham and cheese, always good for when you can’t wait until dinner.

Sushi is as easy to find as pad Thai
Bangkok has a huge Japanese population, which means lots of sushi restaurants (from big chains to tiny holes in the walls), authentic izakaya bars, quaint cafes, ramen shops and katsu places.

Mass transit is sparkling clean

Sukhumvit soi 31 to 55 on the odd side of the street is Japanese foodie heaven, which a healthy dose of whiskey and sake bars peppered throughout.

You must definitely try the street food

Hellooo! Massage!
Possibly the most commonly heard phrase in the whole of Bangkok.
If you like massage, Bangkok’s your city, with everything from 100-baht-per-hour reflexology to day packages that cost hundreds of dollars.

Hit the river for a change of pace

Most street massage shops do a perfectly adequate foot massage for 250 baht per hour (a 50 to 100 baht tip is appreciated).

The malls are mighty big and shiny

For a more professional experience, Health Land, Body Tune and Urban Oasis are reputable chains.

It is a foodie paradise

The most pampering spas are undoubtedly those attached to luxury hotels, Peninsula, Park Hyatt Erawan and The Siam are three of myriad indulgent outlets.
