Bangkok boasts a robust public transit system, which brings most parts of the city within easy access for commuters. Metered taxis and smaller tuk-tuks are also easy transport options. Longer trips throughout the country can be conducted by train, bus or plane. The country’s workweek is Monday through Friday, with most businesses opening at 9.00am and closing at 5.00pm. Government offices generally open a half-hour later and close a half-hour earlier. Shopping centres typically open at 10.00am and close at 10.00pm. While metered taxis with a set BT35 ($1.10) starting fare are available in major cities, three-wheeled tuk-tuks are also a common sight. However, travellers using a tuk-tuk should take care to fully negotiate the trip fare with their driver before setting out on their journey. Food in Thailand is characterised by a complex blend of flavours, along with a penchant towards powerful spices. The country’s four regions each have their own variations on the cuisine. While there are many high-end restaurants, street food is also favoured.
