How we research
Bangkok Up is compiled and maintained by our editorial team from official and public sources — transit operators, temple and venue authorities, tourism bodies and other published data covering temple routes, BTS and MRT lines, river-boat piers, hotel-area trade-offs, food districts and the rhythm of the seasons. Where we describe how something works, we cross-check it against those sources and review pages regularly.
We aim to help you make a better decision, not to rank for a keyword. That means each page is opinionated about sequencing, timing and trade-offs: what to do early, what to save for the heat, where to stay for the kind of trip you're taking, and when a boat beats a taxi.
Our no-fake-facts rule
The single firmest rule on this site is that we never invent prices, hours, fares, opening times, event dates or coordinates. Those values change constantly in Bangkok — tickets rise, temples close for royal events, markets shift their days, boat timetables get revised — so quoting a precise figure we can't stand behind would do you more harm than good.
Instead, volatile details live in each page's facts card, framed honestly and flagged with a 'verify before you go' note that points you to confirm the current value on the official source before you commit. We would rather tell you exactly what to check than risk sending you to a closed gate with the wrong number in your head.
How we update and correct
Bangkok changes, and so do these guides. We revise pages as lines open, venues move, prices reset and seasons turn, and each page carries an 'Updated' indicator so you can see how current it is. When something is wrong or out of date, we want to fix it fast.
If you've just been somewhere and found a detail has changed, please tell us — reader reports from the ground are some of the most valuable corrections we get. See our corrections page for how that works.
