The Other Bangkok
After experiencing Thailand day by day for two marvellous years—immersing myself in its culture, rhythms, and most authentic corners—I’ve compiled in this guide everything I wish I had known the first time: practical tips, iconic sites worth visiting, and unusual spots with a truly authentic soul, allowing you to enjoy the city’s energy from a fresh perspective, far from the usual clichés
I created this guide for those who want to plan their trip independently, explore the city on their own, and experience Bangkok with curiosity, freedom, and awareness—while still having the insights of someone who truly knows it, who has walked its streets and explored it without filters.
Bangkok deserves much more than a quick visit between famous temples and iconic skylines. The city gradually reveals itself: in vibrant markets full of color and street food, in neighborhoods where time slows down, in alleys brimming with art, in sunsets over the river, and in its contradictions that make it endlessly fascinating. A metropolis that confuses, enchants, and constantly surprises..
What you’ll find:
All the practical information you need for a stress-free trip (apps, SIM cards, payments, where to stay, when to travel, what to pack)
How to get around Bangkok with ease
Iconic must-see spots: temples, markets, art, and spiritual sites
Unusual but unforgettable experiences, even on rainy days
A culinary guide to savor the city, dish by dish
A curated selection of specialty cafes, rooftops, and cocktail bars to enjoy the magic of the night
Everything you need to travel safely and confidently
The ABCs of Thai etiquette
A taste of the Thai language, for use… or just to remember
And most importantly: a link to a personal Google My Maps map, with countless locations, restaurants, bars, rooftops, shopping malls, and hidden gems—so you always have the right places at your fingertips
More than a guide—your invitation to explore Bangkok’s true soul
Bangkok isn’t just visited. It’s experienced.
And with this guide, it’s like having someone by your side who’s already been there… and left their heart in the city!
