Bangkok Honeymoon

Survey the capital’s ancient temples to reveal its prominent role in the history of the Thai Kingdom. Meander down the beckoning alleyways for Bangkok’s favorite street eats. And observe the city’s modernity by shopping in their multi-story luxury megamalls. A place where centuries old golden stupas share the skyline with futuristic skyscrapers, there is no other city that presents such a stark contrast. Exotic Bangkok is a sanctuary for history buffs, fervent shoppers and ardent food lovers.

No matter what your interests may be, a Bangkok honeymoon can satisfy any couple.

When to Go

Though hot year round, Bangkok’s dry and coolest season spans from November to February. December is the peak travel month with soaring prices. The tropical monsoon season from July to October sees rainstorms, while March through June remains hot and humid.

Top Sights and Activities

  • Chatuchak Weekend Market: Also recognized as JJ Market, Chatuchak carries the title of world’s largest weekend market.  Impressive for its sheer size, this market is a labyrinth of thousands of enticing stalls, offering an array of clothing, antiques, pets and everything in between.
  • Authentic Pad Thai: Take to the streets when it comes to this beloved noodle dish, as street vendors perfectly balances the flavours of spicy and sweet. Assembled fresh before your eyes, devour the meal while it’s hot on the sidewalk’s plastic table and chairs for an authentic experience.
  • Chao Phraya River Tour: Hire a boat and explore the banks of the Chao Phraya River. Bordered by historical gems of striking architecture, this river is also home to one of Bangkok’s few remaining enclaves of traditional wooden homes on stilts.
  • Wat Arun: Translated as “Temple of the Dawn,” its distinctive spire towers over the Chao Phraya, and is observed for its stunning multicolored porcelain facades.
