Bangkok, officially known as Krung Thep Maha Nakhon, is the capital and most populous city of Thailand. Known for its vibrant mix of ancient tradition and modern innovation, Bangkok is a dynamic metropolis that has become the epicenter of Thailand’s political, economic, and cultural life. With an estimated population of over 10 million people in the metropolitan area, Bangkok serves as the gateway to Southeast Asia for tourists, investors, and international businesses alike.

While Thai is the official language, English is widely spoken, especially in business, education, and government sectors. English serves as the common language for expatriates and tourists, making Bangkok an attractive location for multinational companies and global organizations.

As Thailand’s capital, Bangkok is the political heart of the country, housing key government offices, embassies, and the royal family’s residence. The city is also the financial center of Thailand, home to the Stock Exchange of Thailand (SET), major banks, and multinational corporations.
