The Temple of the Emerald Buddha

The Grand Palace is the palace of the Thai royal family. It was built in 1782 and has been expanded and renovated by generations of kings to its current scale. The Grand Palace has obvious Siamese architectural features, it is magnificent and has national characteristics, and it is called the 'encyclopedia of Thai art'. In 1992, the Thai government funded the construction of the Thai Buddha Garden in Luoyang White Horse Temple, which is a condensed essence of Thai architecture represented by the Bangkok Grand Palace. The Grand Palace covers a huge area and includes two parts for touring: the Jade Buddha Temple and the Grand Palace. The tourist entrance is at the Jade Buddha Temple. 🇹🇭Jade Buddha Temple Named after the jade Buddha enshrined in the temple, the temple is located in the northeast corner of the Grand Palace, about a quarter of the size of the Grand Palace. It is one of the three national treasures of Thailand, the guardian temple of the Chakri Dynasty, and the national temple. The jade Buddha is enshrined in the main hall, it is carved from real jade, 66 cm high and 48 cm wide. It was a treasure that was fought over by many countries. After being discovered in Chiang Rai in 1434, it has been enshrined in the Jade Buddha Temple. There are seven pairs of fairy statues on the high platform of the Jade Buddha Temple. The upper body of the lioness fairy is a woman, and the lower body is a lion; the upper body of the golden Nara is a man, and the lower body is a bird. Each door in the temple has a six-meter-high guardian Yaksha, holding a Dharma sword, which is very spectacular. There are also three pagodas to the north of the main hall: a pure Thai-style scripture library, a Sri Lankan-style golden relic pagoda, and a royal ancestral temple built by Rama IV. The model of Angkor Wat is a collection of Rama III, and you can still see the appearance of Angkor Wat when it was complete from this huge model. There are 178 paintings in the corridor of the Jade Buddha Temple, which were painted during the period of Rama I, telling a mythological story of good people defeating bad people. 🇹🇭Grand Palace The main building is four palaces, with the roof in the Thai characteristic three-top structure, lined up in a row, with green ceramic tile ridges, purple and red glazed tile roofs, and pointed phoenix head flying eaves. But these main buildings are not open to the public. Chakri Palace is the largest main hall in the Grand Palace, with three floors, built by Rama V in 1876. The initial design was a Western-style building, but because it felt a bit abrupt among a group of Thai buildings, a traditional Thai roof was added later. 🇹🇭Grand Palace (The Grand Palace) Address: Phra Borom Maha Ratchawang, Phra Nakhon Bangkok 10200 Opening hours: 8:30-15:30 Ticket: 500 baht/person (cash or card can be used) The dress code in the Grand Palace is strict, please be sure to comply Do not hire wild tour guides at the door, easy to be deceived Photography is prohibited in the main hall, and you need to take off your shoes and hats when entering

I left my heart in the city of Bangkok, not only because of the many captivating sights, but also because the cost of living in Bangkok is quite affordable. I can find delicious food all around the city. Moreover, cruising in a boat along the city's river is what I enjoy the most. The blend of ancestral culture with modern vibes within one city makes Bangkok a comfortable place for both tourists and workers. #bangkok #temple #Amazingvacation #solotrip

Just beautiful. The Temple of the Emerald Buddha is within the gates of the Grand Palace. Upon entering the palace, we were immediately struck by the golden sheer size stupa and awe-inspiring architect symbolizing elegance, tranquility and serenity. Simply captivating, with intricate murals, beautifully manicured gardens and the peaceful ambiance made it a truly memorable and spiritual journey. Exploring the grounds, we discovered various ornate buildings and shrines, each with its own unique charm and significance. Highly recommend visiting early morning to beat the crowd. To make the most of the visit, recommend getting guided tours or informative plaques provide valuable insights into the statue's origins and the beliefs associated with it. Visitors are required to dress modestly and remove their shoes before entering the temple. Also recommend visiting Wat Poh, Museum Siam, grab a bite a Rong Ros (michelin star), stroll Tah Maharaj for more restaurants and cafe, cross the river to Wat Arun, enjoy a drink and sunset view at Eagle Nest rooftop bar - a wonderful day out! #summervacation #culturalattractions #trip #grandpalacebangkok #bangkok #thailand #familytravel #couplestrip #awesomepic #2023travelwish #temple

Even as local, I still can't get enough of this temple. It's elegant craft and detail worked that's go into building this temple is absolutely astounding. It can get very how during the day (especially during the Summer) best time to visit is very early in the morning when the temple just open. It's also good to try to avoid the crowds. Make sure to take the time to enjoy the wall painting along the temple.

The city of Bangkok is the place to be any time of the year. The people are friendly and the activities are much to do. I had the pleasure of visiting the Emerald Buddha, Wat Pho and Wat Arun temples, the Safari Park, rode on Thailand’s tallest Ferris wheel and had a little brunch on the sky walk! Amazing experience. I recommend anyone visiting Bangkok for the first time to visit these places. #bangkok #bangkok #bangkoktrip #bangkoktemple #wat arun #watpho #safariworld #skywalk #thailand #thailandtraveling
