Bangkok is home to numerous parks, playgrounds, and green spaces that offer a welcome outdoors respite from the bustle of city life. You don’t have to travel far to find a lush oasis from the never-ending traffic and commuter rush of this great city.
From the famous Lumphini Park to lesser-known hidden gems. We will take a close look at Bangkok’s public parks, gardens, recreation spaces, green spaces, and pockets of nature.
There are spots for a picnic, pet-friendly places to walk your dog, watery wetlands, and botanical gardens for all the budding horticulturists out there.
In Thailand, we call marijuana gan-chaa (กัญชา), derived from the original Sanskrit term, ganja – a favored synonym for the Devil’s lettuce in many countries around the world and an easy one to remember.
Back in August of 2022 when this article was first written, we were all on eggshells, the sudden boom in cannabis business was too good to believe. Every day there seemed to be some rumour of the government trying to put the cat back in the bag. But here we are, as I update the article in March of 2023, and Thailand is still swimming in a haze of ganja smoke.
All over the country, cafes, restaurants, and bars are cashing in on the trend by selling THC-laden products along with more innocuous CBD and hemp offerings for various health benefits.

Thailand loves its temples! There are more than 40,000 of them in Bangkok alone and each one is just stunning. Most visitors will have at least a couple of temples on their “must-see” list when they visit The Kingdom, but which ones are really worth the visit?
In Thailand’s humid heat and incessant sunshine, one must carefully plan their day trips so as to see the best sites without over-exerting one’s self. Sometimes the biggest and most famous tourist attractions are not really the most impressive or most worthwhile. In this guide, I will introduce a few ways for Bangkok travellers to see some of the most interesting temples in the easiest ways possible.

Completely spoiled and ridiculously pampered. When we got the opportunity to visit the amazing Soneva Kiri Resort on Koh Kood Island in Thailand’s northeast, we could hardly believe our luck. The hotel’s private plane picked us up at Suvarnabhumi Airport and in just over an hour we were landing in paradise.
The hotel is just magical, and Koh Kood is heaven. Our massive villa had its own pool, we were given a own golf buggy to cruise around on, and everything we ate was perfection.
For amazing food, hustle and bustle, old timey vibes, and hipster bars, Chinatown “Yaowarat” in Bangkok, Thailand is the place to go.
For our anniversary, Tyler took me on a staycation to Chinatown where we stated at the Shanghai Mansion Hotel. Appropriate since we met in China more than 10 years ago.
We roamed the streets and found that Soi Nana is the perfect location for a pub crawl with dozens of awesome bars along one short block.

Is the BTS crush giving you a headache? Are you tired of traffic? Sick of your schedule? Then it might be time to run away for a few days. Instead of wasting time in transit or fussing around with airports and delayed flights, try closer to home and look no further than the white sands of Koh Samet. Only 3 hours from Bangkok to the beach, you can be sipping from a fresh coconut overlooking turquoise waters before midday. With this guide, you get the experience of someone who has been to Koh Samet three times in one year to help you plan the easiest, most relaxing mini-break.
