Back to mid-January, me and my friends went to Bangkok for 4 days to spend time together, relax and of course, FOOD! It's really nice to escape the cold in Hong Kong for a while and get some sunshine in Thailand.

DAY ONE
We arrive Bangkok around 1pm and we Uber to our hotel. We stayed in Urbana Sathorn Bangkok, right in the centre of Bangkok, about 45 minutes away from DMK airport. After checking-in and putting our stuff down, we headed to Siam, the most busy area in Bangkok, to walk around and look for food. We tried Mango Tango and ordered mango sticky rice and other mango dessert. We also bumped into a random market, called Street Art Market. They got music, food and different products. We tried coconut ice cream, which surprisingly good!

At night, we had a 2-hours Thai massage at Healthland and then dinner in Asiatique night market.

DAY TWO
We had a solid 9 hours sleep after a long day yesterday, so we started our first full day pretty late with some last minutes planning (as always). We bought a one-day boat pass (THB180) that can bring as along Chao Phraya River at Sathorn Pier. The first stop we headed was The Maharaj Pier to check out the Grand Palace and The Temple of the Emerald Buddha. Make sure you don't wear short or skirt when visit the Grand Palace, my friends got kicked out because of wearing shorts, but don't worry there're Thai fisherman pants to buy right outside the entrance lol!

We then take the boat to Wat Arun, a beautiful white temple, but we didn't pay to enter lol.

DAY THREE
Another full day in Bangkok, we decided to book a taxi for one day to bring us to Damnoen Saduak floating market and Mae Klong Railway Market. It took around 1.5 hours from Bangkok CBD to our first destination. Floating market is really fun and a must-do in Thailand, but we didn't buy anything in the market. After that, we visited Mae Klong Railway Market and had lunch there. Railway market is known as one of the world class attraction. Marketers along the railway will close their shop within few minutes before the train pass by, and then open again right after the train left.
The driver dropped us at a subway station as we wanted to visit JJ Green Market. We just spent around an hour to get dinner and walk around. We ended up enjoy the last night at Siam Design Hotel with night view and a drink.

DAY FOUR
Last few hours in Bangkok, we took a quick Uber ride to Pratunam to try the famous chicken rice!
Then, we did a last minute Big-C run and bought a lot of snacks and noodle. After packing everything, we hopped on to a taxi and rushed to the airport to catch our flight back to Hong Kong.

4 days is definitely not enough for Bangkok and I am sure I'll be back for the cheap food and market! I spent around HKD1000 on food and transport, HKD2300 for flight and hotel. If you wanna know more what I did in Bangkok, check out my vlog:
