Bangkok, a city of extremes – you can either love it wholeheartedly or dislike it entirely. There's little room for middle ground.
In a single word, I'd describe Bangkok as "wild." It's a unique kind of wildness that's distinct from what you might consider civilized in other places.
Here are some essential warnings:
-
Respect for Buddha: Thai people hold deep reverence for Buddha, so avoid getting tattoos of Buddha or treating Buddha images as mere statues. Show utmost respect to Buddha throughout your stay in Thailand.
-
King: Discussing the Thai King or related topics should be approached with caution. Never use offensive language when referring to him.
-
Tuk Tuks: Tuk Tuks can be faster than taxis, but they may not always be the safest option. Be cautious when choosing transportation.
-
Use "Grab": For both taxis and food delivery services, it's advisable to use the "Grab" app for convenience and safety.
-
Traffic: Expect constant traffic in Bangkok, especially when heading to the airport. Leave for the airport at least 4 hours in advance, and consider using the Express Highway to avoid potential delays.
