i don't know why but she does 

any recommendations as to the area and then sites to see  .... grab to move around and no parties 

just normal  tourists  

thanks 

You likely will be happier taking the BTS/MRT instead of GRAB for most journeys to beat the hellish traffic. Certainly there is a plethora of info on Bangkok tourism available..Thai wife would most like to see Temples ? and then maybe some wallet breaking shopping at opulent mega Mall ? Don't forget to take the river boats for the true experience.

Visit Chinatown and the markets surrounding.

Take a trip on the river boats on the Chaophraya ,river and on some of the the klongs.

Visit the palace Grand Palace and some temples Must see Temples

Visit the megamalls Central World, Paragon, Emporium, EmQuartier, Icon Siam etc...to see in some parts of the city nearly unimaginable opulence.

Visit Erawan Shrine.

For a Thai an evening river dinner cruise is worthwhile.  The commentary is usually in Thai.  There are many cruises.  One we have used starts from the Riverside Hotel, yet there are many companies doing the same.  Buffet or a la carte, your choice.  Just search Bangkok riverside cruises.

 

Asiatique on the riverfront up-scale market stalls and restaurants.

JJ/Chatuchak for the market.

Silom/Lumpini

Sukhumvit from around Nana, sois up to and around Terminal 21.

Obv' the large number of very large shopping centers.

 

As someone else said in the center, public transport is best during the day.

 

she will know what she wants to do in bkk.. just ask. 

A one day visit? 2? 3?

Unless you want to go broke stay away from emquartier only designer stuff there very expensive.  Terminal 21 might be better.  I would suggest finding out what she wants to do there and looking at it form there.  River cruise dinner is always nice

i don't know why

Bangkok's great to visit.

 

If it's overnight stay at the Hilton Millennium.  Great views and next to ICON SIAM.  Great buffet breakfast.

 

ICON has a pier with river cruises that looked very nice and popular.

 

China Town is fun to explore.

 

One or two things is enough then relax by the pool with city and river views.

 

Grab taxis are cheap to get around.

 

Hilton is on the new Sky Train route.

 

Whatever you do, enjoy yourself!

I thought someone would have mentioned MBK before me.

There is always the national museum at Pipittapan

The royal barge storage and the floating market.

Agree especially Chinatown, for my extended Thai family (all Thai heredity) from Essan, Nth, Central Nth etc, Chinatown is a dream must see, and buy a few Chinese food, medicine, herb etc., products, mostly not expensive.

 

Just a few!

She's all Thai, or all of her wants to visit BKK? 

A trip on the Saen Saeb canalboat is also a hoot - I see they're electric and silent now as well - and a great way to get from Sukkhy to the palace etc. or vice versa ...

We recently stayed at the Novotel Platonum. Next door to Platinum Plaza, five floors of inexpensive, good quality clothing. 5 minutes walk to Central World via elevated walkways.

My Thai wife would be happy to spend an afternoon at JJ market, then a nice dinner at an upscale restaurant. Shopping & food, a lady's dream day.

She's thai and doesn't know what she wants to see? Be very careful. This could be expensive.   

Khlong Ong Ang is really nice, especially Friday - Sunday when it is a walking street.  Lots of food, stalls, drinks, and a really cool vibe.  Easy to get to as there is an MRT station just a couple of minutes walk away.  Highly recommended.  It even got a UN award for the restoration.
