Best Cities to Visit in Thailand

Thailand’s lively cities offer the best insight into this country’s fascinating culture and plenty of fun. Even if you can’t wait to get to the beach, it would be a shame to miss exploring some of Thailand’s best cities like:

Bangkok

Bangkok is Thailand’s capital city and is often the first stop for travelers in Thailand.

This buzzing, exciting, modern metropolis that never sleeps has so much to offer. From golden temples and floating markets to soaring skyscrapers and modern malls, from delicious street food to high-end rooftop bars, and everything in between.

Even if you are keen to get to the islands, Bangkok is one of the best places to visit in Thailand for first timers because it is home to many iconic sights and a good introduction to Thailand.

There are so many things to see and do in Bangkok that I’d recommend spending at least 3 or 4 days in Bangkok to see the famous attractions and get an insight into Thai life at the start of your adventure.

Bangkok's grand palace can't be missed from your thailand itinerary

One of the main attractions in the Thai capital that you can’t miss from your Bangkok itinerary is the Grand Palace and Wat Phra Kaew (the temple of the Emerald Buddha.) This is a dazzling and intricate complex of historic buildings, palaces and temples that was once the royal palace and residence of the Thai royal family.

Another must-see is Wat Pho, (the temple of the giant reclining Buddha) home to a 46-meter long statue of Buddha covered in gold leaf. Nearby, you’ll also find Wat Arun (the temple of dawn) a beautiful temple with a unique architectural style that towers over the river.

Climb Wat Arun at sunset and take a cruise along the Chao Praya River for a refreshing way to experience the city’s stunning skyline or stay in one of Bangkok’s boutique hotels on the riverside.

To see all of Thailand’s most iconic sights in one place head to The Ancient City, a sprawling open air museum containing 100 replicas of the most interesting and significant sights in the country. Visiting this museum feels like traveling through the whole of Thailand in just one day!

Bangkok has many modern malls and a futuristic sky train, but for a unique shopping experience head to one of Bangkok’s floating markets such as Damnoen Saduak or Amphawa. These bustling markets are situated on canals with longtail boats offering everything from fresh produce to souvenirs.

Chatuchak Weekend Market is one of the largest in the world and a popular spot for bargain hunting for both tourists and locals, with over 15,000 stalls selling everything imaginable at low prices.

And when the sun sets, head to Sukhumvit or Khao San Road for a taste of Bangkok’s famous nightlife. Sukhumvit is known for its rooftop bars, restaurants and night clubs while legendary backpacker hangout Khao San Road offers a fun and budget friendly experience with street vendors, live music, and cheap drinks.

Chiang Mai

Located in the north, Thailand’s second city, Chiang Mai, is a charming city known for its rich cultural heritage and stunning natural beauty. It’s one of the best places to visit in Thailand for first timers and anyone interested in Thai culture and history.

Chiang Mai’s walled and moated Old City is a must-visit with its ancient temples and historic sites such as Wat Chedi Luang and Wat Phra Singh. Stay in a heritage boutique hotel within the ancient city walls to really immerse yourself in the experience.

Doi Suthep is one of the best things to do in Chiang Mai, Thailand

Also make sure to head up to Doi Suthep to see Chiang Mai’s most revered golden temple and enjoy the panoramic views of the city.

Chiang Mai is home to some of the best markets in all of Thailand. The lively Chiang Mai Night Bazaar is open every night for shopping, eating and entertainment.

On Sundays the Old City comes alive as the Sunday Night Market takes place, offering a variety of local handicrafts and delicious food. Don’t miss the chance to try Khao Soi – the famous noodle soup of Northern Thailand.

Just outside the city, you can visit waterfalls and hot springs, go trekking or visit the Elephant Nature Park, an ethical elephant sanctuary where you can learn about these gentle giants and help with their conversation.

You can also visit Doi Inthanon National Park, home to the highest peak in Thailand and stunning hiking trails, waterfalls and the famous twin pagodas.

And if you happen to be visiting Chiang Mai in November, don’t miss out on the magical Loi Krathong (Lantern Festival) where thousands of lanterns light up the sky and floating lights illuminate the river creating a mesmerizing spectacle.

Chiang Rai

white temple chiang rai

Chiang Rai, a city in Northern Thailand with some unique temples, is also well worth a visit. The White Temple (Wat Rong Khun) is one of the most stunning, unique and eye-catching temples in all of Thailand, with its intricate details, unique sculptures and sparkling white exterior. It’s one of my all time favorite temples in the world! Don’t miss it!

In stark contrast to the White Temple, The Black House (Baan Dam) is filled with dark and eerie artwork and sculptures, showcasing the darker side of Thai and Buddhist culture. Also well worth a visit is the gorgeous Blue Temple (Wat Rong Suea Ten), with its vibrant blue exterior, intricate gold details and beautiful murals inside.

From Chiang Rai, you can also visit The Golden Triangle, located at the intersection of Thailand, Myanmar, and Laos. This area along the Mekong River was once known for its opium trade but now offers scenic views, boat rides along the river, and interesting museums where you can learn about the area’s history. Stop off at the Doi Tung Royal Villa, on the way.

Chiang Rai is located about 3 hours from Chiang Mai. It’s one of the best places to visit in Thailand if you are looking for unique temples and an insight into Thai life off the usual tourist trail. If you are short on time you can take a day trip from Chiang Mai to see the highlights but it’s worth spending a few days here if you can.

The Phi Phi Islands are one of the most famous destinations in Thailand, and a must for first-time visitors. This group of six islands located between Phuket and Krabi shot to fame after the movie, ‘The Beach’ was filmed here.

The most popular and iconic spot in the Phi Phi islands is Maya Bay, a stunning white sand beach surrounded by towering limestone cliffs and turquoise water. It can get quite crowded with tourists and you are no longer allowed to swim or camp here, but it’s a spectacular sight that is still well worth the visit.
