BANGKOK - ROYAL PALACE, WAT PHO, WAT ARUN - HALF DAY BY LOCAL TRANSPORT & GUIDE
BANGKOK - ROYAL PALACE, WAT PHO, WAT ARUN - HALF DAY BY LOCAL TRANSPORT & GUIDE
Day 1
08:00, Meeting with the guide and departure for this half day tour of the city, using local transport.
We go to the nearest BTS elevated subway station and head to Saphan Taksin station.
From here we will use the ferry to continue with the visits.
Starting with the Royal Palace, founded in 1782, it includes not only royal halls and throne rooms, but also numerous government offices and the famous Temple of the Emerald Buddha. It covers an area of 218,000 square meters and is surrounded by four walls, 1900 meters long. The palace was built after King Rama I took the throne. Before that, the royal palace and administrative center were located in Thonburi, on the west bank of the Chao Phraya River. For various reasons, the new king considered the former capital inadequate and decided to establish a new capital across the river
Under his royal command, a palace was built to serve not only as his residence but also as the seat of administrative offices. The royal complex has since been known as The Grand Palace. The first two buildings erected within the complex were the Dusit Haha Prasat Throne Hall and the Phra Maha Monthian.
It continues with the adjoining Wat Pho which is not only one of the most visited Buddhist temples in Bangkok but is also the combination of history, medical science and educational institution. Officially baptized Wat Prachetuphon Vimon Mangkararam, Wat Pho was founded during the 16th century and later became the Royal Temple of King Rama I of the Chakri dynasty. Located within the main ordination hall is the 46-meter reclining sacred Buddha, whose feet are beautifully inlaid with mother-of-pearl, carved with sacred signs. Wat Pho is, among Thais, also known as "the nation's first public university", thanks to 1,360 marble inscriptions on medical, historical and liberal sciences found throughout the temple where people can read and learn at any time . Marble inscriptions on medical sciences, anatomy and orthopedics are the origins of the traditional massage principles of Wat Pho Thai, which made Wat Pho a world famous site. Traditional service, nowadays, is also available at the nearby pavilion. in 2008, Wat Pho was named UNESCO World Memory (MOW) as a documentary heritage for Asia and the Pacific region.
The visits end with Wat Arun, One of the most recognizable landmarks in Bangkok is Wat Arun, also known as the Temple of Dawn, which is located on the banks of the Chao Phraya River. A temple has occupied the site for hundreds of years, but the name and design of the temple have changed several times in those years.
Wat Arun is a Khmer-style temple with four pranghi (also known as prasat) and a larger one in the middle. This layout is a representation of the five sacred mountains that housed the gods based on Khmer, Hindu and Buddhist cosmology. The central prang represents Mount Meru, the center of the universe. When the height of the central prang was extended, Rama III ordered that colored pottery and porcelain be used to form elaborate motifs and designs. This unusual design feature makes the pranghe sparkle and sparkle in the sunlight and give the temple a unique charm that must be seen up close to be fully appreciated. A very steep staircase with narrow steps allows visitors to partially ascend the central bow to a platform that offers beautiful views.
Return to the hotel is scheduled between 12: 00-12: 30 for the morning excursion and at 17: 00-17: 30 for the afternoon ones
