Songkran Festival in Bangkok was something I had seen online many times—but experiencing it in real life during Songkran 2023 was completely different. What looks like fun water fights on Instagram is actually a deeply cultural celebration mixed with joy, chaos, respect, and human connection. This was my first time witnessing Thailand’s New Year festival on the streets of Bangkok during the Songkran Festival Bangkok, and it left a much deeper impression than I expected.

15th April 2023 / During the Thai New Year holidays, I stayed in Bangkok to enjoy the Songkran festival. The next day I visited Chachoengsao City near Bangkok.

Wat Arun Temple, Bangkok

Wat Arun, officially known as Wat Arun Ratchawararam Ratchawaramahawihan, is a prominent Buddhist temple located in the Bangkok Yai district. The temple’s name is derived from Aruṇa, the Hindu god representing the radiations of the rising sun. Its central prang, symbolizing Mount Meru from Hindu cosmology, is flanked by satellite prangs dedicated to Phra Phai, the wind god.

Sometimes, the busiest cities hide the calmest green spaces. On a sunny morning in Bangkok, I found myself wandering into Train Park in Bangkok — a peaceful patch of grass framed by old locomotives and calm pathways, right in the heart of the city’s Bang Sue area. The contrast between the urban sounds outside and the gentle rustle of leaves inside the park reminded me why simple places like this become favorite stops for families, joggers, and anyone seeking a break.

Train Park isn’t just about trains — it’s about taking a breath in Bangkok’s urban rhythm.

In the heart of Bangkok’s urban rhythm lies a calm spiritual retreat that many visitors overlook. On a quiet evening stroll near the city’s busy districts, I found Wat Hua Lamphong Temple — a serene Buddhist temple where the energy shifted instantly from honking traffic to gentle temple bells and peaceful prayer spaces. This temple isn’t just a religious site; it’s a moment of quiet in Bangkok’s nonstop pace, and one of my favorite places to slow down and observe how local daily life merges with spirituality.

13th July 2019 / Visited this place on weekends and have wonderful Chicken Biryani at Al Hussain Restaurant in Sukhumvit Soi 3, which is just 50 meters inside the street. This place is near BTS Nana.

 

Sukhumvit Soi 3 in Bangkok isn’t a flashy tourist hotspot — it’s one of those streets that feels authentically Bangkok: a mix of low-key bars, local eateries, night spots, and colours you don’t see in guidebooks. Just off Sukhumvit Road and close to the heart of the city, Sukhumvit Soi 3 makes a great quick explorative stop if you want to feel real Bangkok street life without the crowds.
