The Grand Palace in Bangkok is one of Thailand’s most famous landmarks and a must-visit attraction. Built in 1782, it served as the official residence of the Kings of Siam (and later Thailand) for over 150 years.
The palace is a stunning example of Thai architecture, featuring intricate details, golden spires, and elaborate temples.
Highlights of the Grand Palace are Wat Phra Kaew (Temple of the Emerald Buddha), home to the revered Emerald Buddha, one of Thailand’s most sacred statues and Chakri Maha Prasat Hall, a blend of Thai and European architecture, originally used as a royal residence.
