Bangkok is definitely spread out and there is a lot of ground to cover but you will surely have a good time if you know where you’re going before going out. A little intimidating to navigate alone so it was nice to be there with a friend for a day. A fun town to see but I would spend too much time there as there are more parts of Thailand to wander

Despite most people saying Bangkok is overrated, busy, and dirty, I managed to find a lot of fun experiences within this massive city. While it is a bit grimy and busy, I think that may add to the appeal. I found tons of things to do in this city and I think that’s why I enjoyed it so much. Some of the best things I did in Bangkok were: - watching a pro Muay Thai match - the floating market - the night markets - a food tour of China Town - iconsiam Mall - temple hopping at the Grand Palace, Wat Pho (reclining Buddha), and Wat Arun This was my first city in Asia and I was at first intimidated but came to feel quite comfortable after finding the right hostel. I stayed at Jam Hostel near Khao San road which made me feel comfortable, safe and welcomed. They had daily activities and the women working there go out of their way to provided the best experience for guests, and always ensuring their guests are getting the best deals and not being scammed by tuktuks and tour groups. The only time I really felt “unsafe” here was walking around at night, which I guess is to be expected of any large metropolitan city - including even my home town. However, I never had any bad experiences here and I would go as far as to say I felt more safe here at night then I did in my own city of Vancouver. This city is huge and it’s quite spread out, somethings are very difficult to get to. I would recommend taking the water taxi and metro as much as possible. Avoid taxis and tuktuks where you’ll surely be scammed, instead take grab bikes which are generally cheaper and get around much faster.
Posted: October 21, 2023I stayed in Bangkok alone for 2 days before my best friend got there. I never felt unsafe. I stayed closer to my hotel at night, had a plan for the day, studied the maps so I wouldn't look lost, and confidently asked questions. The people were incredibly friendly and helpful.
