About Riverside:

One of the most fascinating areas of Bangkok, the riverside reflects a constantly changing scene with taxi boats gently transporting passengers, rice barges being towed laden with goods and local trading boats, against a backdrop of glittering temples and modern warehouses. The riverside area also contains some of Bangkok's most prestigious hotels, from The Oriental - consistently voted "Best Hotel in the World" to the Shangri-La, and the Sheraton. Good value first class hotels like the Menam, established before the real estate boom are also located this area. Close by is Sanam Luang - the political capital of Bangkok which has many historic landmarks and buildings, including the Grand Palace. The area remains relatively free of modern architecture and gives a better feel for "old Bangkok."

Thailand's thriving and lively capital city is one of the best reasons for visiting. The new underground rail system and Skytrain now link most of the main tourist and business areas, allowing easy access to virtually anywhere in the city. The old city area (Rattanakosin) and the riverside are becoming popular areas near Bangkok's temples but if you're a shopaholic, head for Sukhumvit, Ploenchit and Rachaprasong.
