Grand Palace
A glittering complex in the heart of Bangkok, the Grand Palace served as the official residence of the Siamese royal family for over 200 years. The intricate architecture with its spires and pagodas reflects both European and Asian influences. Wat Phra Kaew, the Temple of the Emerald Buddha, is located within the palace grounds and enshrines the country's most revered Buddha image, carved from a single piece of jade.
Wat Pho
Wat Pho is one of Bangkok's oldest temples, dating back to the 16th century. It's most famous for the Reclining Buddha, an enormous gilded statue measuring 46 meters long and 15 metres high. The soles of the Buddha's feet are decorated with mother-of-pearl pictures depicting scenes from Jataka tales. The temple complex also houses a renowned school of traditional Thai medicine and massage.

Gracing the west bank of the Chao Phraya River, Wat Arun is another of Bangkok's most iconic landmarks. Nicknamed the "Temple of Dawn" for its stunning beauty in the early morning light, the temple features a 79-metre central prang (spire) decorated with colourful porcelain shards.
