Temple of the Emerald Buddha (Wat Phra Kaew)
The glittering Grand Palace in Bangkok is an architectural wonder that was once home to the kings of the Chakri Dynasty. A visit to the ornate and historic Grand Palace, and the adjacent Temple of the Emerald Buddha, is a highlight of any visit to the Kingdom. The palace was built in 1782 by the Rama I, the first king of the Chakri Dynasty, when he moved the capital of what was then known as the Kingdom of Siam from Thonburi on the west bank of the Chao Phraya River to Bangkok on the east bank. For 150 years the palace was the home of the Thai King. Today, the complex remains the spiritual heart of the Thai Kingdom.

The tour was scheduled for 4 hours, but our tour guide (Jerry?) left us after 2 hours (only did Grand Palace and emerald Buddha)…not the other 2 major temples. He said he had another tour to do and that we should just go on our own. In the end, we didn’t go on our own (as we didn’t know where to go + we were tired). Instead, we went to the textile museum (which had AC) and had ice cream from a food truck - which was nice. The only disappointing part was the tour description inaccurate and mis-leading to tourists.

The guide spent a lot of time visiting, he was in no hurry, but his English was basic and difficult to follow for a long time

Our guide Tac was great, we had opportunity to see a lot in 4 hours. I highly recommend this tour if you have just a few hours to explore Bangkok
