Bangkok is one of the world s most wellknown tourist destinations. Travellers are fascinated by its art and cultural diversity and colorful street life. The city s skyline is shaped by a wide range of architectural styles evident in ist palaces, temples, historic buildings, all the way to the modern skyscrapers. In spite of the fact that these structures represent the architecture of different eras, they co-exist harmoniously and, at the same time, add spice to a visit to Bangkok."
