Lonely Planet City Maps Bangkok
Ref: LP0301
Buddhist temples, vibrant markets, river-view restaurants and the most happening bar scene in South-East Asia lie hidden behind Bangkok's modern city streetscape. Navigate through it all with this handy City Map.
Find the following treasures with our City Map to Bangkok:
<
* The Grand Palace & Wat Phra Kaew - Constituting two of Thailand's holiest sites, the Grand Palace and Wat Phra Kaew are also Bangkok's finest tourist destinations
* Wat Mahathat - The Rambling Wat Mahathat compound in Ratanakosin is the most important centre of Buddhist learning in Southeast Asia
* The National Museum - The National Museum's top-rate collections are haphazardly arrnanged. Pay a visit to the enormous elaborate funeral chariots that have carried the ashes of royalty.
* Chatuchak Weekend Market - Bangkok's most famous flea market bears the city's quintessential stamp of excess.
* Wat Pho - You might visit Wat Phra Kaew out of cultural obligation, but you should visit Wat Pho for pure enjoyment!
* Lumphini Park - A morning visit to Bangkok's green lung is a must.
