The answers above are good answers for those looking for Thai culture. If that's what you are after then their ideas are good.

However, you mentioned that you wanted things for the whole family. If that includes small, or not so small, children, I'm not sure that I would fancy dragging them around Wat Pho (the Temple of the Reclining Buddha) and such places although culturally they are very important, Whatever their cultural merits, it might be a struggle.going round them with children on board.

For family days out the two obvious things to do in Bangkok are:-

1) Safari World ""Watch bengal tigers, lions, elephants and giraffes from your car in this 520 acre open zoo and wildlife park made up of rolling plains and deep jungle. Walk amongst hundreds of different species of rare birds such as Birds of Paradise and Toucans."" There is also a cowboy stunt show and a dolphin/whale show.

2) Dream World """Adventure Land, Fantasy Land and Dream World Plaza await you at this large, Disneyland-like, amusement park. Shows include The Colors of the World Parade and The Hollywood Action Show where the SWAT team sorts; out a group of terrorists in spectacular fashion. Think a hot country like Thailand can't have snow? Head for Snow Town. Alternatively, take the cable-car over The Lake of Paradise and Fantasy Land or The Dream World Train through the caves. If you still have the energy, you can check out scaled-down replicas of world famous wonders such as The Taj Mahal, The Great Wall of China and The Leaning Tower of Pisa. As with all of our tours, one of our qualified Guides will be with you throughout."""

Promotional (not my) words in quotation marks above.

They are not particularly Thai, but they're not meant to be, they're days out for families.

If you can sneak out in the evening, then a dinner cruise on the Chao Phra River is quite romantic. Their are several companies that offer them, each with a slightly different theme.

Thailand is unquestionably very Westernized and somewhat present day. plenty so as that each and absolutely everyone Thais talk superb English while they want something from you. This potential seems to vanish without notice while they owe you. Tip: do no longer take a journey from the Limousine Taxi employer(human beings in orange uniforms) from Subrav.... airport to downtown Bangkok. they are going to value you virtually two times as much as a regular metered taxi, and there is not greater luxury than a regular taxi the two. while you're searching for a jungle, greater beneficial circulate to South Africa.

There are many family activities, zoo, snake farm, aligator farm, temples, palaces, Lumpini Park with GIANT Ferris Wheel, night market shopping, IMAC Theater, Boat trip down the river. The list goes on and 0n. Thai people love and value Children thus, there is lots to do cheaply. Go, Explore, Enjoy!

Pray to God that you will be able to get out of there alive. I was there when the bomb start exploding. I was like..oh my God! I don't want to die. Run! Run for your life. Just joking. Actually, Thailand is a very peaceful place with lovely people. Just go to the beach and enjoy. The price there is quite low lately. Bye

See the temples ! They are so fantastic ! Take a boat ride around the canals. A great way to see a different world. Go to one of many places to listen to Thai music and watch Thai dancing. Go to the street markets around the world trade center in Bagkok. Lots of bargains.

You can do almost all the mainstream tourist stuff in a few days. Take a taxi to the National Palace and Wat Phra Kaew, and Wat Pho is nearby, you can walk to the river area and take a ride in a longtail boat. You can go shopping - the weekend market - for example. You should get a massage (or three). And you can eat yourself silly.
