Asia - Bangkok, Thailand

Bangkok, the capital city of Thailand, is a great metropolis with elegant temples and palaces alongside Romanesque concrete skyscrapers and wooden houses. Despite the modern skyline, many districts retain their old-world charm with buildings up to 200 years old. The shores of the Choa Phraya River also provide a number of inspiring sights.
