Beautiful palaces, Buddhist temples and the Golden Buddha can all be visited in Bangkok and the culture can really be taken in there as well as experiencing the hustling streets and markets. Koh San Road is the street where travellers often start their experience with tacky markets, hostels, restaurants and drinking holes. The red light district and now must see tourist hot spot of Patpong has markets, bars and the famous Ping Pong shows.
