Escape the heat in the Mango Lagoon hotel pool

Bangkok can get hot! In December temperatures rises well above 35 degrees, which calls for a refreshing dip in a pool. Unfortunately hotels with a pool can be quite expensive during the high season, but every problem has a solution. Ergo, the Mango Lagoon hotel pool. The Mango Lagoon Hotel's inviting pool is a perfect oasis in the vibrant city of Bangkok. This luxurious outdoor pool is set amidst lush tropical gardens, providing a serene and refreshing retreat from the bustling city streets.

The hustle and bustle of Chinatown

Chinatown in Bangkok captivates visitors from the moment they arrive. This vibrant district is a lively blend of sights, sounds, and scents, offering an authentic glimpse into the heart of Bangkok's cultural melting pot. As you wander through the bustling streets, you'll encounter an array of street vendors offering traditional Chinese and Thai street food. From steaming bowls of noodle soup and crispy duck to exotic fruits and freshly made dim sum, the culinary delights are endless. Nighttime in Chinatown brings a particularly magical atmosphere, with neon signs illuminating the streets. Beyond the food, Chinatown is a treasure trove of unique shops and markets. Goldsmiths, herbal medicine shops, and vibrant markets filled with trinkets and textiles beckon with their colorful displays. Chinatown's energetic vibe, combined with its deep cultural roots and culinary riches, makes it a must-visit destination in Bangkok.
