TRAVEL NOTES FOR A SEAMLESS JOURNEYLANDSCAPEBangkok is the capital and most populous city of the nation, known in Thai as Krung Thep. The historical centre spreads along the Chao Phraya, as smaller canals crisscross the city and provide a picturesque alternative transportation system. As the political, economic, cultural and spiritual heart of the nation, Bangkok features both Old World charm and modern comforts.

PEOPLEA melting pot of distinct ethnic communities, Bangkok residents are known for their warm smiles, carefree ‘mai pen rai’ approach to life, and gracious hospitality.

WEATHERBangkok has a tropical climate and experiences hot, rainy and cool seasons, with temperatures ranging from an average low of 20.8 °C in December to a high of 34.9 °C in April. The rainy season begins with the arrival of the southwest monsoon around mid-May.

TIPS FOR TRAVELLERSMany nationalities can visit Thailand visa-free, with 30-day tourist visas on arrival also available at both Suvarnabhumi and Don Muang airports.

The plugs in Thailand are not standardised – there are at least three different types, some two-pin and some three, so be sure to bring a universal adapter or buy one once you arrive. Electronic devices that do not accept 220-240 volts may require a voltage converter.

Learning a few common phrases in Thai is sure to make the friendly locals smile. Please dress modestly for temples / historical sites with shoulders and thighs covered as a mark of respect.
