Bangkok Things to Do

If you want an experience that is uniquely Thai while in Bangkok, you should consider spending a night out watching a Muay Thai fight. This Thai-style kickboxing differs from boxing in the US and is known locally as “the art of eight weapons,” since fighters use their hands, knees, elbows and feet to attach their opponent.

For a little taste of class in one of Asia’s largest and most recognized cityscapes, Bangkok has a number of swanky and impressive rooftop venues where you can enjoy a fine drink in a great setting.
