Next, hop on your return transfer to Bangkok and be dropped off at King Power Mahanakhon, the tallest building in Thailand and an iconic architectural landmark. Receive your full entrance pass, then soak up panoramic views of Bangkok from a 314-meter (1,030-foot) high skywalk. Look down through the glass, if you dare.
