The Skytrain


Bangkok's public transportation has, along with a subway, tuk-tuks, taxis, boats, and buses, the skytrain, an elevated train which can speed you from place to place without the hassle of being stuck in traffic. Rides cost from 25 cents to a dollar, but for $2.50 you can have an all day pass and watch the city glide by in air-conditioned bliss.
I ended up taking all four methods of transportation, most notably using a taxi (80 cents) to get to and from the hotel to the skytrain station (about 1 km away).
