Whether you want to just relax at a pool or aim for a serious calorie-burning session, swimming provides enjoyment, relaxation as well as a total body work-out. Nothing could top a nice dip in a pool, especially when you're living in the city where the heat is relentless. Most mid-range and top-end hotels have swimming pools, as do many serviced apartments and fitness centres. If you can't find one where you're staying, quite a few public pools can be found around Bangkok, and here are some of them.
