A Day In Bangkok, Thailand!: Grand Palace & Wat Pho

The demon Guardians protect the buddha from evil spirits. We got to see some Thai dancing by these awesome women keeping their traditions alive! If you forget to dress appropriately, there is a place to rent clothes from, but I’m not sure how much it is and there was a line for it. The architecture is so different from what we’ve seen before. Although Cambodia also had amazing details and carvings in their traditional buildings, Thai architecture has these bold, beautiful colors that I adored! Admission to the Grand Palace is 500 baht or around $16 USD each. But like most sacred sites, if you’re a Thai National, it’s free. The Grand Palace was built in 1782 when Thailand was still Siam. For 150 years it was home to the Thai Kind and the Royal Court. Today, it’s considered one of the most sacred places in Thailand. I later read that the Angkor Wat model was built when Cambodia was under control by the Siamese by order of King Rama the fourth. The Grand Palace closes surprisingly early at 3:30 pm so we definitely recommend getting there early in the morning in order to explore all 218,000 square meters of it! Many of these buildings weren’t built for prayer, but rather as administrative buildings. I seriously couldn’t get enough of these colored glass mosaics. I might redesign our flat. I think it’s a good idea. This is the Buddist library …Sigh, Libraries are the best. Originally, the palace was built of wood and scavenged materials. But it was slowly replaced and enhanced into the splendor you see here! Unlike the Palace, Buddist Monks actually live here. It was just a 10 minute walk here from the Palace. It was so much more relaxed here with way fewer people than the Palace. Wat Phra Chetuphon Wimon Mangkhalaram Ratchaworamahawihan It was 200 baht to get in or about $6.50 USD. This was the first public university in Thailand. It specialized in Science, Literature and, of course, Religion. The school of Thai medicine is located here, so you can actually get a Thai Massage on site here too! Wat Pho temple complex boasts the largest collection of Buddha images in Thailand Keep an eye out for our night market fun in the next video!
