The report on Bangkok says –
Eat, shop and repeat in Thailand’s intoxicating capital city and, increasingly, Southeast Asia’s transportation hub.
“Bangkok is coming out of the pandemic more kinetic, bustling and relevant than ever. Start with the city as a global culinary powerhouse, ranking #16 world- wide in our Restaurants subcategory, despite the rumored destruction of the industry by lockdown. The industrious street food entrepreneurs in Bangkok’s Yaowarat (Chinatown) triumphantly relit their grills and started serving up heaping portions of curry and noodles, albeit across Plexiglas barriers, while sticking to strict COVID-19 protocols that helped the city fare exceptionally well against the virus early on. These days, restaurant openings are back and include must-try curry house Charmgang, which opened just before the lockdown, and David Thompson’s new Aksorn, serving meals inspired by vintage Thai recipes. The city also ranks in the top five globally for Shopping, and the proof is in its plentiful markets, like Chatuchak, its largest, and Central, an upscale department store that carries local and traditional Thai merchandise like tableware and decorative items made by artisans in Chiang Mai. But the biggest buzz in town is Bang Sue Grand Station, Southeast Asia’s largest railway terminal, which started full service late last year.“
