Nine days later, you’ll arrive in the bustling, multi-layered city of Bangkok, where revered traditions and history blend seamlessly into a pulsing modern city. Thrill at the wonder and majesty of the city’s many temples and palace sights. Lose yourself in the vibrant markets. Take a boat trip down Chao Praya.
