Bangkok Spirit

Assouline's coffee table book "Bangkok Spirit" takes you on a journey to one of the most vibrant cities in the world. Led by author Simon Liberati, it outlines an intimate story of discovery, shaped with an appetizing mix of dynamic images, some provided by local photographers. 

You don't come to Bangkok for tranquility. Nor do you come for ultimate luxury experiences. Bangkok is a city for the explorer. Those who seek an infectious energy. Those who want to feel alive. Thailand's capital is electric chaos, from the animated street vendors to the traffic jams galore. The only balance to Bangkok's effervescence is found in its spiritual dimension. The intricate Buddhist temples and monasteries offer a respite. Then it's back to bustling city life.

Bangkok is a place of abundance. Abundant in religious institutions, abundant in delicacies offered at food markets and abundant in places for an unforgettable night on the town. With Thailand's first skate company (Preduce Skateboards), Princess Sirivannavari's eponymous fashion label and an avant-garde collaboration between chef Gaggan Anand and Louis Vuitton, Bangkok is also clearly abundant in its creative output.
