Polluted Bangkok — 1 year ago
I think you have to look around Bangkok when visiting Thailand if only because that’s the most likely point of arrival, but I have to say I was pretty disgusted by the traffic and the air quality (on the buses I found it difficult not to cough). The nicest place to be was on the river, on the ferries and best of all on the old canal system on a boat tour which apparently is the way all of Bangkok once was. My trip to Thailand in 1993 really began the day I left BK on a train headed north.
