Bangkok Rush is a race course in Mario Kart Tour. It is based on and named after Bangkok, the capital city of Thailand. There is currently only one route for Bangkok Rush, which made its debut in the city’s namesake tour, the Bangkok Tour. The course visits various landmarks of the city it is based on, which includes driving through the Chao Phraya River and going underneath the BTS Skytrain with Inky Piranha Plants serving as obstacles.

This course is a favorite of Mario (Aviator), Dr. Peach, Cat Mario, Daisy (Thai Dress), Pink Shy Guy (Ninja), and the Silver and Chain Chomp Mii Racing Suits.

Course layout

Bangkok Rush

In the standard layout, the course starts at the Grand Palace beside a building with two elephant statues. After a gradual left turn, the player briefly travels across the Chao Phraya River with rowboats that can be tricked off of. A sharp left turn follows, followed by a sharp right near the Democracy Monument. Another sharp left brings the player through a market area, where the player can either go onto the stalls via wood planks or drive in the middle of some train tracks. After a gradual U-turn, the course goes underneath the elevated rail tracks of BTS Skytrain surrounded by King Power Mahanakhon, shopping malls that resemble MBK Center and Siam Paragon, and the Giant Swing, with Inky Piranha Plants and cars. The player can also go up some stairs to reach the Skytrain section. The course then takes a left S-curve next to the giant Ganesha statue and the Phra Buddhasaiyas to the finish line. In the trick variant, Rocky Wrenches are added to the lower part of the market section.

The river section of the course triggers the underwater propeller if the player turns to the right at the start of the area.

The course also appears as Bangkok Rush R (reverse), Bangkok Rush T (with ramps), and Bangkok Rush R/T (reverse and with ramps).
