Lonely Planet Bangkok Encounter 2nd Ed.: 2nd edition

What Will Your Bangkok Encounter Be? Grabbing a quick spicy meal streetside, or taking your time over mouthwatering seafood? Shopping till your credit card pleads for mercy at the mother of all Bangkok malls, Mah Boon Krong, or joining clubbers in their almost-holy pursuit of sanuk (fun) from midnight till dawn? Turn the tables - watch the tourists instead of the locals - at (in)famous Khao San Road. Discover twice the city in half the time with full-color pull-out maps and detailed neighborhood maps for easy navigation. Our experienced Bangkok-based author recommends the very best sights, restaurants, shops and entertainment with unique itineraries and highlights help you make the most of a short break. Includes locals' insights: food commentary from the brains behind a top Bangkok restaurant, a local muso's tips on the city's nightlife, and a fashionista's shopping tips.
