Although it rained in Bangkok today, I still saw the sunset

Pics 1-4: The pier viewpoint across from Wat Arun, very close to the Grand Palace, lights up around 6 PM. Pics 5-11: Wat Phra Kaeo (Temple of the Emerald Buddha) inside the Grand Palace. You need to wear long pants or a long skirt to enter the Grand Palace. I didn't do my research and wore shorts, so I spent 200 baht to buy pants. Wat Phra Kaeo can be explored freely, but the palace itself cannot be entered; you can only view it from the outside. Pics 12-13: Wat Paknam Phasi Charoen. Next to it are all residential buildings and small alleys. To get the best spot to photograph the complete Big Buddha, you still need to check guides, otherwise, it's easy to get lost. I wandered in the alleys for a long time, but finally, because the Grand Palace closed at 3:30 PM, I left after only taking a few photos. Pics 14-17: ICONSIAM. The platform next to Pop Mart offers views of the CBD across the river, which is very beautiful.
