It's a sprawling mix of old and new that's home to roughly 10 million people. This month CNNGo heads to Bangkok where we meet a diverse cast of individuals.

One of Thailand's most renowned architects, Duangrit Bunnag, shows viewers a hidden village nestled in the middle of the city, where locals live as they have for more than a hundred years. We step into the kitchen of Bo.lan and meet two young chefs who are using innovative ingredients to put a new spin on traditional Thai dishes.

Forget the tourist markets. Instead we find out where the locals really shop. We step into the boutique of one of the country's talented young fashion designers - Pim Sukhahuta. And Talk Show Host Woody Milintachinda tips us off to the bars and clubs of "RCA" - or Royal City Avenue. All that plus some wild tuk tuk rides and entertaining street performers, this month on CNNGo.
