Solo Backpacking In Bangkok

One of the tourist spots in Bangkok that you absolutely should not miss.

As it’s not the official residence of the royal family, the Grand Palace is open to tourists and provides people with a look at the stunning architecture, artefacts, and art that is housed here. 

Wear clothing that covers your legs and arrive as early as possible to avoid the crowds. If you can swing it, try to arrive by boat; it’s the most stylish and breathtaking way to arrive.

Khao San Street isn’t for everyone, particularly people who just want to relax. This is considered the nightlife market for ex-pats and tourists and is literally a road in Bangkok that can service your every need, from repairing your travel gear to giving you great street food at affordable prices. Get a Thai massage or just sit at a cafe or bar to meet others.

The street is live till early morning. The best time to visit Khao San Street is after 5:00 PM.

If you’re in Bangkok and you want to do some luxury shopping, Siam Paragon Mall is just the place with six stories of every type of shop imaginable. And even if you’re not in the mood for shopping, you can also visit the mall’s aquarium. 

If you've never been to a floating market, the Damnoen Saduak Floating Market is a good introduction. It is one of the most popular markets in Thailand and you'll be floating past both tourists and Thais as you admire colourful garments and all types of exotic fruit and vegetables. It only operates in the morning so make sure you get up early not to miss it. You can take a tour here or take the bus from Bangkok to get here. 

This is my favorite backpacker hostel I stayed in Bangkok. Clean, Beautiful & Budget Friendly. Great location too.  It is surrounded by Bangkok's major shopping complexes, Central World, Siam Paragon, Platinum Fashion Mall, just to name a few.

To travel to and around, you will enjoy the very convenient BTS sky train (Ratchathewi Station) and the nearby Ratchaprarop Airport Link Station to and from Suvarnabhumi International Airport.Pratunam Market, Bangkok's most popular and colorful fashion wholesale market is also just a few minutes walk away.

Natee Hostel has relaxing common area together with Bangkok's beautiful night view at the roof top balcony. Free WiFi is available throughout the property.
