After sunset, and especially during the festive season, Bangkok offers some splendid views of its well lighted most important monuments and buildings.
The Royal Palace and Wat Phrakaew are visible at night all year round, while some of the other buildings are only lighted for about a month starting in early december up untill New Year.
Besides the monuments, which are further described on the 'daylight' pages, we also have included some pictures of Khao San Road at night. It is highly recommended you include this street, close to Sanaam Luang (and the Royal Palace) into your evening stroll. You can have a quiet drink (cheaper than at most places) or meal, and observe the crowd of young people around, giving the place a lively and pleasant atmosphere.
