How Safe Is Bangkok For Tourists?

Featured Replies

Hi there!

In a few weeks I will travel to Bangkok for a few days, but I can't get it clear how safe it is to

travel to this city. I read a lot about protest of the Red Shirt, roadblocks, etcetera. But I would

like to know if it is safe to travel to this city as tourists? Our hotel (Emperial Queens Parc Hotel)

is not very far from the Thai Government (approx. 7 km). Is this a dangerous zone? Can we travel

safely trought Bangkok by taxi and/or Skytrain?

Hopefully someone can tell me a little bit more.

Regards, Tim

Come. Go wherever you want. Learn to walk serpentine.

Stay away from Silom and Rama 4 and the area around Siam Plaza you should be ok. I just returned from a 3 month visit to Thailand and the only time I saw a red shirt was on a trip to visit girlfriends son in Chula Hospital and it is located at Silom and Rama 4.

No problems or trouble up country.

The same topic has been running for some time already in the Bangkok subforum-

(so I'm closing this thread as a duplicate).
