The Best of Bangkok, Thailand!
BANGKOK, THAILAND
Bangkok
My first day in Bangkok was such a thrill! And we packed it in on a sustainable sightseeing tour around the city. Bangkok’s Green Day program has a lot to offer! 🌿☀️ 🌱 #thailandinsider
Taking public transport was a breeze, finding my way to Pak Khlong Talad flower market. 🌸 It was lovely to watch locals create colorful arrangements and stock up on beautiful bouquets 💐. With offerings in tow, we walked to Wat Pho to visit the iconic reclining Buddha. He was just there chilling, just as I saw him 20 years ago. 😉
Next, we cruised along Bangkok’s Thonburi canals in a traditional longboat. Groups can even book a solar powered vessel. We pass by the legendary Wat Arun Temple before diving into smaller canals. I loved feeling the wind in my hair, watching daily life pass by.
We arrived to the most magical hidden gem, Poomjai Garden, where I fell in love with the exotic and enchanting lychee orchard that is over 100 years old! Enjoying a delicious and local farm-to-table Thai food lunch al fresco at Natura Cafe was such a highlight. 🍽️There are many eco-activities to enjoy here in this serene hideaway. @poomjai_garden #PoomjaiGarden
After a quick break at the hotel, we were back out for more, ready for a nighttime adventure. But first, we make a stop in Chinatown. We sample some street food and people watch and take in the vibe. I can’t imagine a more picturesque place to have a bowl of noodles, my fave! 🍜
There, we find our three-wheeled ride, an EV tuk tuk, and zoom around the city. 🛺 We stop at interesting temples and sights as the city glows. Fun attempting a long exposure shot 📸 outside the Grand Palace, before jet lag hit me. This blurry selfie was a mistake but represents exactly how I was feeling at that moment. 🤣
Would have loved to continue and admire Wat Arun at night, but this girl needs to crash. Bangkok, I will be back!

Best. Meal. Ever.
Just wowed by EVERY course. And there were sixteen of them. I lost count. 🤣 #thailandinsider
Seriously, I stepped off the plane in Thailand ✈️ and into this innovative, elevated foodie experience at the beautiful Siam Kempinski Bangkok. So charmed by the floating pink lotus flowers and orchids creating such a magical atmosphere. I was just wowed by the dry ice welcoming act arriving to the table, and alllll the interesting food ceremonies to follow. How thoughtful they even had a photo of me at my table! I could get used to this! 😉
The creativity, presentation, and flavors were absolutely outstanding. I was especially blown away by the science experiment happening in front of me to prepare our soup course table side. The melt-in-your-mouth slow-cooked beef dish with that incredible onion skin blowtorched right in front of me was so memorable, too. I enjoyed tasting the fermented lotus served in a lotus. 🌸 It was also exciting to play a game of hide and seek trying to identify the chocolate desert in a field of Thai chilies! 🌶️
How nice to have these beautiful postcards of each dish to remember the full lineup.
What an enchanting experience to kick off the trip! 💗
