    Gay Bangkok &#; the top gay hotels, bars, clubs &#; more

    Bangkok has a reputation for being a chaotically fun place to visit! A night out in Bangkok is always unforgettable—or, more likely, unremembered—and within the (in)famous Silom district you’ll find plenty of gay bars, clubs, saunas, and spas that justify the city’s reputation as “the Gay Capital of Asia.”

    But beyond the revelry, you’ll find a city that is latest while still retaining cultural depth. Ornate temples prefer Wat Arun and Wat Phra Kaew sit beneath futuristic skyscrapers, and floating markets glide along the Chao Phraya River, forgetful to the urban throng around them. The streets themselves are always humming with energy, and the scent of sizzling avenue food completes the Bangkok experience. Go dive into the chaos yourself and remember that what happens in Bangkok, stays in Bangkok. Well, unless you post it on social media!

    Thai food is world famous and for good reason. It&#x;s packed of flavor, easy to produce and very healthy. The most famous Thai dish is Pad Thai, which is a stir-fried rice noodle dish cooked with eggs, fish sauce, garlic, shallots, bean sprouts, coriander leaves, tofu or chicken, tamarind pulp and served with spring onions, crushed nuts and lime juice. It was popularized during World War II and has become the country&#x;s national dish.

    Som Tam is spicy green papaya salad made with shredded papaya, pounded in a pestle and mortar with lime juice, palm sugar, chili, garlic, shrimp, nut, tomatoes, fish sauce, bean sprouts and emerald beans. Curries are also ubiquitous throughout Thailand. The most celebrated are named after the hue of the chilis used: red, green and yellow. In the south, Massaman curry is more popular, which is a richer tasting curry with coconut milk that is not as spicy as its colorful cousins. Mango sticky rice is a favorite among Thai desserts. Sticky rice is made from glutinous rice and it is cooked with coc
