Bangkok Grand Palace and Emerald Buddha Tour
+5 photos
Visit the most famous landmark of Bangkok, the Royal Grand Palace and the Temple of the Emerald Buddha.
Both are located in one magnificent compound that has been the spiritual heart of Thailand since the late eighteenth century.
Wander past golden chedis, ornate halls and colourful murals that tell ancient stories from Thai mythology. Step into the former royal residence and see how each building reflects the craftsmanship and traditions of past generations.
Inside Wat Phra Kaew you can admire the Emerald Buddha, the most revered statue in the country, carved from a single piece of green jade and beautifully displayed above the main altar.
Your local guide will share the rich history of the palace and help you understand its importance in Thai culture.
