Your trip will start from visiting Wat Trimit, this temple is known for its famous Golden Buddha constructing during the Sukhothai period. The image of solid gold is 3 meters high and weighs five and a half tons. Your second stop will be Wat Pho, it is one of Bangkoks oldest and largest temples. Wat Pho was built by King Rama I about 200 years ago and houses the gigantic gold plated Reclining Buddha image. This unique image is 49 meters long and 12 meters high with beautifully inlaid mother-of-pearl soles, then your last stop is The Royal Grand Palace, the nation's landmark and the most revered royal monument. You will see the Palace, which is used for many different occasions, and you will see The Coronation Hall, the Funeral Hall, the Royal Guest House, and the mysterious, famous Emerald Buddha (Wat Phra Kaew), the most revered Buddha image in Thailand. Then you will return to the hotel. Enjoy your free time at leisure.
*Most temples & palaces in Thailand are sacred place, you'll need to
respect the strict dress code in place. You'll need to wear pants or a
dress/skirt that extends well past your knees, and a top that fully
covers your shoulders. No shorts, mini-skirts, short skirts, tight
fitting trousers,tights,see-through shirts, culottes or quarter length
trousers,sleeveless shirts or vests and Sandals (without ankle or heel
straps) etc.
*The Grand Palace does offer a clothes rental service
in which you can borrow some stylish trousers and/or tops for a
refundable 200 baht deposit from an office near the entrance. Hang onto
your claim ticket, however, as you will need it to get that deposit
back.
*The heat in Bangkok is no joke and, inside the Grand Palace
grounds, you'll find it almost unbearable. You absolutely must take a
hat or even an umbrella with you, to shield you from the sun (and your
kids). We also strongly recommend packing on suns
Day 3 - Visit Maeklong Railway Market & Damnern Saduak Floating Market
