Giant, sprawling Bangkok, the most heavily-visited city on earth, is a treasure trove of palaces, museums and Buddhist shrines, superb shopping (for every conceivable product and gift), famous hotels and outstanding restaurants and street food. It also is one of the world’s most difficult cities to navigate, so we employed Mick Shippen, who has lived in and reported on Bangkok for the past decade, to create this innovative book. Combining maps, photos and detailed itineraries it helps visitors plan their time in the most efficient, smart and fun ways possible.
