Thailand revels in its highly individual identity, having absorbed Indian, Chinese and Malay influences, but escaped colonization. Written by long-term residents, and loaded with insider advice, etiquette and language know-how, this guide to Bangkok shows you where to eat, shop, stay (from boutique backpacker lodges to luxury hotels), temple-spot and party.
