Known as the green lung of Bangkok, the island remains preserved, with some local business and a park that's perfect for a tour on a bicycle.

Located in the Chatuchak district, the Elephant Tower is one of the most unique buildings in Bangkok.
The Robot Building is located on South Sathorn Road and was inspired by the architect's son's robot :O
The 'Sathorn Unique' Ghost Skyscraper is a 50-storey 'haunted' building that has been abandoned since 1997.
8. Soak in some culture at these unorthodox museums

Get a close look at our anatomy in the **Human Body Museum.** Not for the faint hearted, this museum displays everything in the body from vital organs and the circulatory system, right down to the skeleton.

One of the most popular (and unsettling) attractions in Bangkok is the **Forensic and Pathology Museum.** Situated in the Siriraj Hospital, it features displays such as dead bodies and mummified corpses of murderers and accident victims :O (Don't bring your kids).
