Thailand’s busy capital of over 14 million is always on the move. It’s a long tradition – though most have now been replaced with roads, city life once flowed along a network of canals branching from the Chao Phraya River. The river is still the heart of Bangkok, feeding the remaining canals and moving urbanites from place to place. Though the floating markets have moved to solid ground and most traffic jams are now caused by cars rather than boats, the city is as loud and bright as ever.
