Ride a tuk-tuk in Bangkok
Maybe not a sight, but definitely an attraction and landmark of Thailand is a ride with a tuk tuk in Bangkok. A trip in one of the three-wheeled taxis is a must when visiting the Thai metropolis. However, some caution is required, because scammers and rip-offs are also on the move here.

The Grand Palace
One of the most important sights of Bangkok is the Grand Palace. It was the official Bangkok residence of the kings of Siam (present-day Thailand) from the late 18th century to the mid-20th century. It was only in 1946 after the death of King Ananda Mahidol (Rama VIII) that the palace was moved to the Chitralada Residence of Dusit Palace.
