Thailand
Around the clock, in every direction
The place
Temples at dawn, sourcing meetings by noon, night markets until late. Bangkok is CalltoLocal's busiest city for both travel guides and business services.

Practical
What the locals here get asked before anyone books anything.
Two airports, and they are not close to each other — check which one your ticket says before you book a transfer, and leave real time between connections if you are changing between them. The rail link from Suvarnabhumi into the city beats the expressway at almost every hour of the day.
Where the Skytrain and metro go, take them; Bangkok's traffic is not a queue you can wait out. Where they do not go, the river and the canal boats often do, and the Chao Phraya express is the fastest way to reach the old city and the temples along the water.
Half of what CalltoLocal is asked for in Bangkok is not sightseeing: factory and supplier visits, sourcing at the wholesale markets, and interpreters who can hold a negotiation rather than translate a menu. Those locals are listed here alongside the guides.
