Highlights attractions in Bangkok

• The Grand Palace - The Grand Palace is no longer the official administrative seat of the government or home to the Thai King. However, the original buildings used for these purposes still stand and can be toured during visitors. The palace is decorated grandly, with numerous attractions to see. The white exterior walls keep the priceless relics hidden from the public. Still, upon paying the entrance fee, visitors are treated to views of towering statues and beautiful temples across its grounds. The palace ground is huge and a trip to the palace can take many hours as there are over 214,000 sq. Meters to cover. History, art and architecture lovers will surely have a sight to behold at the Grand Palace.
• Wat Pho Buddhist Temple - Wat Pho or the Temple of the Reclining Buddha, is home to the 46-metre-long, 15-metre-high statue that stares up at the ceiling in a gaze of enlightenment. Although the statue is the main attraction of the temple grounds, visitors may enjoy the colourful murals all around illustrating over 400 images of the Buddha. Besides, there is a traditional Thai massage school available there.
• Chatuchak Weekend Market - The Chatuchak Weekend Market is one of the biggest flea markets in the world. This is the place to go to buy (almost) anything if you know where to look. Everything from traditional clothes to rare art pieces can be found in the nooks of this market. Visitors are advised to visit first thing in the morning when it’s easier to manoeuvre through the aisles to avoid the crowds of locals and tourists. Morning sales are considered good luck in Thailand and visitors would be able to escape the Southeast Asian heat in the mornings.
