Whether you’re looking for ancient temples, bustling markets, lively nightlife or absolute luxury, you’ll find it in Bangkok.

If you’re looking for a city that has charm and plenty of character, then look no further than Bangkok. It has come a long way since the 18th century, when it was just a small village on the banks of the Chao Phraya River. Today it’s a vibrant metropolis that’s home to more than 8 million people, and is one of the most visited cities in the world.

Book a flight to Bangkok with Qatar Airways to discover Thailand’s spiritual, economic and cultural capital, a sensory-rich city where centuries-old Buddhist temples coexist alongside sprawling high-rises.

Stockholm Arlanda Airport is Sweden’s busiest airport and one of four that serves the country’s capital. So it is important that passengers flying from Stockholm with Qatar Airways ensure that their taxi driver takes them to the right airport. Sweden has a reputation for cool efficiency, and this ultra-modern airport is no exception. Plans have recently been approved to expand the airport to accommodate larger aircraft such as the Airbus 380, and with excellent facilities and a typical Scandinavian devotion to efficiency and quality, flying from Stockholm with Qatar Airways is a relaxing and pleasant experience.

Transportation and parking

There are several railway stations at the terminals. The SkyCity terminal operates long-distance trains to destinations such as Trondheim and Gothenburg, while local trains into Stockholm itself are frequent and efficient. Road transport includes bus, coach and taxi options, all of which run from various points around the city to the airport. Car parking is plentiful. Multistorey garages have direct access to the terminals, and there are also open-air car parks near the terminals. Two additional car parks further away offer economy rates and are connected to the terminals by free shuttle buses.

Arriving at Stockholm Arlanda Airport

Passengers flying from Stockholm with Qatar Airways depart from Terminal 5. It has three piers connected to 31 aircraft parking stands with passenger bridges. There are also a number of remote aircraft parking positions serving this terminal, so it is important to check on arrival where your flight is departing from. Due to the size of the terminal it is also advisable to arrive at least two hours in advance. Be aware that during the winter there may be delays due to weather conditions, so again allow yourself extra time if travelling during the colder months

Facilities and amenities

Facilities at Stockholm Arlanda Airport are excellent. There is a good choice of retail outlets, including exceptionally good restaurants serving international cuisine and Swedish specialities. Business lounges with fax and photocopying services are available in T5, as well as good Internet coverage.

Tourist attractions

Many of the city’s best known sights can be found in the historic centre within the Rattanakosin district.

The most spectacular attraction is the Grand Palace, which was once home to the King of Thailand and today offers visitors a rich mixture of history and architectural splendour.

Within the palace grounds you’ll also discover Thailand’s holiest temple, Wat Phra Kaew.  Other highlights in Rattanakosin include the large reclining Buddha statue at Wat Pho and the Thai-European fusion of Wat Ratchabophit.

Other popular districts worth exploring during your trip to Bangkok include Siam Square for sheer high-end luxury shopping, and Silom for its bustling entertainment venues.

For a very different perspective on the city and a more relaxing way to see the sights, go for a cruise down the Phraya River.
