River ferries and night cruises on the Chao Phraya, the Grand Palace and Wat Pho, handicrafts at Chatuchak, a bowl of tom yum and mango sticky rice; long-tail boats on the canals, a Muay Thai bout, a Thai massage—Bangkok packs temples, markets, street food and river heat into one city. These 50 won't fit a first trip, and return visitors will tick a few more.
