We leave at 08:30 a.m. in the morning from the hotel in Bangkok. We will take public transport and a long-tail boat and visit the Temple of the Emerald Buddha and The Grand Royal Palace.
The Grand Palace, home to the Siam kings of the Chakri dynasty. Originally built by King Rama I, it served as a royal residence until 1946. Today the palace is still used on some occasions for visitation rights or special guests of the Kingdom.
Next to the Grand Palace is the Temple of the Emerald Buddha (Wat Phra Keo), it is only 66 centimeters high. This is probably the best known of the royal temples. It is considered to be the most important temple in all of Thailand and is the venue for many of the numerous religious ceremonies in which His Majesty the King and members of the Royal Family participate.
We will continue visiting the Wat Pho, the so-called Temple of the Reclining Buddha of 46 meters in length, whose official name is Wat Phra Chetuphon Vimolmangklararm. It is a Buddhist temple (wat) located in the Phra Nakhon district, Bangkok, Thailand.
Next, we will cross the Chao Pra Ya river by public ferry to visit the symbol temple of Bangkok, the Wat Arun Temple. Whose name means Temple of the Dawn or Temple of the Dawn and is one of the main Buddhist temples in the city. At 82 meters high, the central tower (prang) of the Wat Arun temple is the tallest in Bangkok.
The architecture of the temple is in the Khmer style and is reminiscent of temples in Cambodia. In the corners of the temple four Prangs of smaller height are placed. All the Prangs of Wat Arun are decorated with Chinese porcelain.
We will take a long-tail boat ride through its canals where we can enjoy a wonderful Thai landscape. Wat Pak Nam has an impressive 64 meter tall Buddha figure on the banks of the canal.
At the end we will visit Talad Phoo market (We will lunch in this market). This tour takes about 5 hours. Like the Royal Palace, Wat Pho and Wat Arun are very close to each other and there is enough time to visit everything.
