More than 16 million tourists visit Bangkok, Thailand, every year for business and pleasure, and are greeted by a vibrant mix of culture and excitement. The city is well known for its historic Buddhist temples as well as its nightlife at places like Patpong and Khao San Road. Future Park is great destination for shopping. At the Samut Prakan Crocodile Farm, you can see more than 60,000 reptiles.
Ground travel to Los Angeles International (LAX) is best done by car. While there are mass transit options available, they can take a significant amount of time. Shuttles are a convenient alternative if you don't want to park your car long term. The flight to Bangkok is anywhere from 18 to 23 hours, depending on the connections you make.
Historically, Bangkok residents traveled by water in the city's extensive canals. Modern Bangkok transportation, however, is dominated by automobiles, but the canals can still be experienced by Ruea Hang Yao, or long-tail boats. The Wat Arun, or Temple of Dawn, is a spectacular 200-year-old structure that's accessible from the river.
Bangkok is served by two international airports, Don Mueang International Airport (DMK) and Bangkok International Airport (BKK). Bangkok International is where you'll most likely arrive from Los Angeles. Bangkok is hot and humid throughout the year, so bring comfortable clothing.
