Bangkok Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in May)

Admiring the beauty of Wat Arun in Thai Traditional Costume

#familytrips2024 #vianasjourney It has been my wish for quite some time to try Thai traditional costume. It looks elegant with accessories and bring out more feminine side of it’s wearer. While I was there, it was pretty easy to find a rental shop, which also offer to do your hair. I paid 400 baht for both my costume set and hairdo. The shops also have connections with local photographers which cost ranges between 1200 to 1500 baht. But I went with few friends so we divide the cost for the photography. There’s plenty of angle and sides of Wat Arun you can pose around. Photographer will also help and give some ideas on your pose incase you are not familiar with posing. It’s definitely a sweet experience. I highly recommend this experience.

Wat Arun Ratchawararam Ratchawaramahawihan

Wat Arun Ratchawararam Ratchawaramahawihan, commonly known as Wat Arun, is an ancient temple built during the Ayutthaya period, originally named Wat Chaeng. It attracts a large number of Thai and foreign visitors. It is a beautiful, ancient place with many spots for taking photos. For those who want to rent traditional Thai costumes for beautiful, retro-style photos, there are many rental shops in front of Wat Arun offering a variety of styles at rental prices ranging from 150-200 baht. Parking is quite limited, but you definitely won't be disappointed. Open every Monday to Friday from 8:00 to 18:00.

Glowing Jewel BKK

I would say this is by far almost every tourist will go to place and it’s significantly more beautiful when you travel during sunset which is around 6.30pm depends on when you go. 🌅 Its distinctive spires, adorned with colorful porcelain, rise majestically against the skyline, making it one of the most iconic landmarks in the city. 😍 Getting There - Wat Arun, also known as the Temple of Dawn, is a stunning Buddhist temple located on the Thonburi side of the Chao Phraya River in Bangkok. I travel there via ferry taken opposite of Wat Arun Temple and it cost around 16 Thai baht. #songkran2024 #cherryblossom2024 #thailandtrip #freehotelstay #thingstodo

Stop going into the Zheng Wang Temple, the best spot is actually across the river!

🏛️ Zheng Wang Temple, also known as Wat Arun, is located on the banks of the Chao Phraya River in Bangkok and is a famous royal temple in Thailand. It is a landmark building in Bangkok and a popular spot for social media check-ins. ⭐ The architecture is very distinctive, with a representative central tower that is 75 meters tall, surrounded by a cluster of smaller towers, adorned with carvings of animals and deities. You can climb the tower for a closer look; it's incredibly exquisite and ornate. The tower is also inlaid with colorful ceramic tiles and glass beads, which are said to be imported from China. 👉🏾 Wat Arun is not very large, mainly consisting of this group of towers. You can take a leisurely look and finish the tour in less than an hour. 📸 The temple is very crowded with tourists from all over the world, many of whom rent Thai costumes for photoshoots. It's very noisy, and it's difficult to take pictures with few people and good views. Moreover, the building itself is too ornate, which is not suitable for portrait photography. The best shooting location is across the river. 🚢 Recommended route: 1⃣️ To get to Wat Arun: It is recommended to take a boat along the Chao Phraya River. You can take a sightseeing boat from either the Iconsiam or Chinatown piers to Wat Arun, enjoying the scenery of the Chao Phraya River along the way. I don't quite remember the price of the boat ticket, but it seems to be 20฿. 📌 If you are very interested in the architecture of Wat Arun, you can go inside for a visit. 🈺 Opening hours: 9:00-17:00 🎫 Admission: 50฿ 2⃣️ Take a cross-river ferry at the pier, the ticket costs 5฿, and when you reach the opposite side of the river, there are many cafes, pubs, and restaurants. It is recommended to order some food and drinks and wait for sunset. When it's not completely dark, Wat Arun will light up, and that's the best time to see it.

Mind-blowing Grand Palace in Thailand❤️🇹🇭

#thailandtrip You can find that there is no such thing as a trip to Bangkok "The next day of Tyrande never rests for a long time, shining for a long time." Finally, I want to recall and post, The Grand Palace+Jade Buddha Temple (heavily stylized and color adjusted). The streets of Tyrande P9P10: The light rail in Bangkok is very interesting to consider. Flights after rain, clouds and sunset before landing. I yearn to travel to some fun places. I use my camera to constantly record scenery and some "interesting stories". If I want to continue listening to the stories I see, some people want to discover more favorite travel destinations. Like and collect, and help and follow me.

Admirable National treasure of Thailand 🇹🇭

#cherryblossom2024 The most revered national treasure of Thailand is the Jade Buddha statue in the Grand Palace. 🛕 Visit The Grand Palace. The most worth seeing is the emerald green jade Buddha statue in the Jade Buddha Hall, which is 66cm high. A total of three sets of clothing were customized for the Jade Buddha. In February, they wore cool clothing and golden thread clothing draped over the Buddha's body. Photography 📸 is not allowed inside the main hall. You can sit down and worship the Buddha, but your toes should not be facing the Buddha statue.🌸 The exterior walls of the main hall are covered with stained glass panels, shining brightly in the sunlight. The porcelain pieces come from Jingdezhen, China. Many of the porcelain pieces inlaid on the exterior of buildings were shipped from China and were broken during long-dist ance transportation. To avoid waste, they were used as decorations in the form of broken porcelain pieces. The corridor is filled with gold leaf paintings 🖼️ , depicting the complex story of the king reclaiming the beautiful queen 🫅 from the hands of demons. 📍Address:Grand Palace Bangkok Thailand 🚇MRT sam Yod #thailand #bangkok

Forget the scorching heat and crowded streets – this indoor market offers all the deliciousness of Thai street food in a cool, air-conditioned haven.
