Thai Boxing

Bright neon lights flood the ring, just like the sun scorching down onto the battleground, revealing two men going through their spiritual 'Wai Khru' (a ceremony to thank their revered teachers, spirits, boxing ring and the sport itself). The blaring sound of Thai classical instruments and the deafening cheering of ecstatic spectators in the stadium don't seem to distract the two 'warriors'. Read more...

Sepak Takraw

Zooming past his teammates, the team's 'killer' hurls himself parallel to the ground, and in a matter of split seconds spikes the fast-approaching ball over the net with a high-flying scissor kick, then skillfully lands on the same foot. Travelling at a vigorous speed towards the opponent's territory, the ball narrowly evades the reaching foot of one of the opposing blockers and eventually hits the ground. The crowd goes wild.

Tennis & Squash

Tennis has picked up its momentum as a preferred sport among the younger generations, thanks to Tamarine Tanasugarn and Paradorn Srichaphan - the two pros who impressed the whole nation with their historic performances in the international arena. Not only the young, adults seem to pick up their interest on the sport as well. Luckily, tennis courts have popped up across the city, and most luxury hotels and serviced apartments do provide their own facilities. Read more...

Badminton

If you feel intimidated by a fast-travelling tennis ball, why not opt for the softer version badminton (which is very popular in Asia). There are countless badminton courts in Bangkok. Most of which usually have racquets available for rent. It's also advisable to check with a court before you go since some places are reserved exclusively for their members. Read more...

Aerobics

Free aerobics lessons are available in most public parks in Bangkok. The most notable is at Lumpini Park where yoga, aerobics and tai chi lessons can be had. Classes are available early in the morning and around 18:00 onwards. No registration or membership is required, just show up and join in the fun! Read more...

Cycling tours have become more popular over the last few years as visitors discover they can see places not accessible by bus or car. Several diferent types of cycling tour, usually in small group are now organised mostly by independent operators who know the city like the back of their hand. Read more...

Beat Bangkok's heat and stage your own holiday on ice at the city's many rinks. An ideal (and fun) way to spend time with your family, ice skating provides non-stop thrill for kids and parents alike. Remember to wear something warm and comfortable. Long, thick socks, jeans, and gloves are recommended as they will cushion against unexpected falls. Read more...
