Where to Fly to From Bangkok

July 24, 2019 by admin

Around the world there are some places which are considered ‘hub locations’ because of the access which they have to a wide number of destinations. One of the best hubs in Asia is Bangkok and not only is this an awesome city to spend some time in, you can fin d a huge array of short breaks from the Thai capital, for great prices and which will arrive in little time at all. If you are in Bangkok and you are looking for a new adventure, we have the perfect list of places where you could consider.

Although many of these are so close to Bangkok, you will notice a huge difference in culture and way of life, which is why it is recommended that you use Bangkok as a hub to reach these places. Once you have had some fun in Bangkok, get yourself onto www.justfly.com and check out the brilliant prices which they have for these exciting destinations.

Chiang Mai

Chiang Mai has long been something of a mecca for backpackers and the result is a city which offers a blend of eco-tourism and Thai tradition. You can get to Chiang Mai in just an hour and 15 minutes from Bangkok and you can often find flights priced as low as £40. Chiang Mai has a new-age vibe to it with many restaurants offering organic and vegetarian choices, yoga and pilates experiences, outdoor endeavors and a lively night scene. Beyond this you can find many ancient temples here and for the animal lovers among you the Elephant Sanctuary is an absolute must.

Hong Kong

Hong Kong can be reached in just under 3 hours from Bangkok and although it is just a short journey away the difference in the cities is absolutely huge. The Hong Kong skyline is the first thing that will strike you about this city and as you spend more time there and scratch beneath the surface, you will find so many experiences and activities to light up the senses. From vast botanical gardens to futuristic art museums and theme parks to the wide range of food choices and high end bars. Hong Kong’s kitchen is a result of colonialism and heavy local influence and it is widely considered to offer the highest quality and widest range of cuisine anywhere on the planet.

Seoul

Some Asian cities are deeply traditional, others are tech-driven futurescapes, here in Seoul you will find both of these combined with one another. The flight from Bangkok is just over 5 and a half hours but despite the distance you can get flights to South Korea’s capital for less than £200 return. Seoul offers all manner of activities from nature trails through the mountains, ancient temples and remote villages, to a bustling center which is famed for its cutting edge design, use of technology and rich music scene. This makes for a great break from Bangkok and it is a city which will provide you with something new each day that you spend there.

Singapore

Singapore is 2 and a half hours away from Bangkok and you can pick up flights for around £150. In the last 5 years this has become one of the hottest destinations in Asia and there has been a huge amount of investment into the city in order to bth meet the tourism demand, and drive it forward. Singapore is famed for its meeting of cultures and owing to the fact that it was an international business hub for such a long time, the result is a city which can offer just about every type of cuisine, entertainment and activities that a tourist could want. Here you’ll find one of the biggest zoos on the planet, museums which focus on ancient civilizations, a theme park which occupies an entire island, not to mention a packed calendar of local events and displays which showcase just what this city can do. As if this wasn’t enough, Singapore juxtaposes a futuristic skyline with thousands of hectares of natural splendor, giving its visitors the best of both worlds.

If you are looking to see more of Asia and want to base yourself somewhere, Bangkok is the ultimate place to do so, a great city and one with plenty of access to the rest of the continent.
