It's not very rainy in Bangkok at that time, so it should be nice for you. http://www.wordtravels.com/Cities/Thailand/Bangkok/Climate I don't think there is a time you can go to Bangkok and it WON'T be busy. I'll move the topic to the Thailand forum, so you'll get more answers. -------------------- My most recent blog: A trip to Toronto that turned into a trip to Niagara

Well, anywhere you travel to around that time will be busy so why not experience Thailand then? It will be busy, yes, so be sure to make some arrangements ahead of time depending on what you're planning on doing. What are your plans? Will you only be in Bangkok or are you planning on visiting some other areas of Thailand? -------------------- ~Susie 'Yesterday's the past and tomorrow's the future.

I was staying in the cheapest fleapits I could find though. -------------------- My Travelogue Rich

You can find all kinds of food all around the country. Thai food is the best in my opinion! -------------------- ~Susie 'Yesterday's the past and tomorrow's the future.

Explorer Group: Local Expert Posts: 122 Joined: 23-August 06 Member No.: 14046	well in a city of 9 million people I have to say that every day is crowded and busy. the traffic alone is enough to drive you crazy. weather this time of year....the monsoon is ending about the end of december for the samui, ko tao side.....phuket side is sunny and awesome usually. up north its a bit chilly and get down into the teens at night (celsius). fooooooooooooood.................the food here is awesome. my only advice is to be brave and try things that you are not sure about. if you dont like it, move on to the next dish. if it wasnt for my thai girlfriend forcing me to try a million new things i never would have stumbled across my favorite dishes. -------------------- http://www.travelpod.com/travel-blog/neali...d2006/tpod.html
