After breakfast, proceed to the Half- Day City Tour. first visit to Wat Traimit, the Temple of the Golden Buddha. The temple is famous for its 900-year old five and a half ton solid gold image. Then continue to visit Wat Arun, perhaps better known as the Temple of the Dawn, is one of the best known landmarks and one of the most published images of Bangkok.
After that, visit Wat Pho, the largest and oldest temple in Bangkok, as well as the largest single Buddha image: the Reclining Buddha (Phra Buddhasaiyas), also known as Wat Phra Chetuphon or The Temple of the Reclining Buddha. The temple is also known as the birthplace of traditional Thai massage, the Reclining Buddha. Lunch on your own. After lunch, we will continue to visit the most famous tourist attraction in Bangkok: the Royal Grand Palace and Emerald Buddha. The Grand Palace adjoins Wat Phra Kaew in a common compound, and is where you will end up after exiting Wat Phra Kaew. Despite the proximity of the two places, there’s a distinct contrast in style between the very Thai Wat Phra Kaew and the more European-inspired designs of the Grand Palace (the roof being the exception). After this place, we go back to the hotel and the rest of the day is free at leisure. |
