The City of Angels is a unique metropolis, and it is one of the most visited cities on the planet; many foreign tourists visit the many well-known attractions, yet there are some local features that tourists do not know exist, and with that in mind, here is a list of such venues that you should add to your schedule.

Lumphini Boxing Stadium

This venue has moved from Lumphini, near Silom Road, to Ram Inthra Road, which is not widely known. The other Thai boxing venue is on Rajdamnuen Road, and this is where the majority of tourists go to watch Muay Thai bouts. There are typically two meetings per week, and you can find out more with a Google search. Ticket prices vary depending on where you sit, and ringside is obviously the best place to soak up the incredible atmosphere.

Jatuchak Weekend Market

Open only on Saturdays and Sundays, this market is huge and part is open air and part is inside an air-conditioned building. The market is very popular with Thais, and prices reflect this. You are expected to barter when buying items, and just about everything you could imagine is on sale at Jatuchak market. You can even buy teak furniture and have it shipped to your home country. This market is perfect for souvenirs to take home for family and friends. If you are staying in a 4 star hotel on Sukhumvit Soi 11. You are not far from this market.

Siam Amazing Park

While there are many water parks in and around Bangkok, this one is not well known, yet it definitely is one of the best. There are 6 adventure areas within the park boundaries, and the rides range from thrillers to slow rides that are ideal for young children. If you have kids, spending the day here is a great idea. The park is located on Sukapibahn 2 Road in Kannayao District, and any taxi driver would know it. If you don’t have children, the park is still well worth a visit, as you can stay cool even on the hottest of days. If you are planning to start a small business in Thailand, you might find this article useful.

Fashion Island

This is a huge shopping mall with an adventure park on the roof/upper floor, which is located on Ram Inthra Road. Popular with the locals, there are several cinemas, a bowling alley and a huge IT section, where you can buy digital devices and computer accessories. You can spend an entire day at this mall and still not see it all, and it opens at 10 am and closes at 9 pm.

Bangkok is a huge city, and many tourists are unaware of the canal network, which is well worth exploring. Canal taxis run all day, and the canals run through most parts of the city, which is a great way to see how Thai people live close to the canals.
