Wat Pho is the oldest Buddhist monastery in the city and also houses the oldest Thai massage school. Subsequently, with a public boat, we will reach Wat Arun, or the "Temple of Dawn." From here, it will be a short distance to reach the characteristic Kudi Cheen (Kudi Chin) district. We will continue on foot to reach the small village and get to know the local community, where time seems to have stopped! We will visit the ancient bakery (Thanusingha Bakery House), which still produces delicious sweets, the small Baan Kudi Chin museum, and the exotic Taoist temple of Kuan An Keng Shrine. End of the visits and continuation by car to the local restaurant to enjoy a delicious lunch.
In the afternoon, the last stop will be the majestic and astonishing Royal Grand Palace with Wat Phra Kaew, the "Emerald Buddha Temple." The Royal Palace also includes the Chakri Palace (visitable only from the outside), the Dusit Palace, and the Montien Palace, the latter visitable only at certain times. Around 4:30 PM, end of the visits and return to the hotel.

Day 3
DAY 3 - BANGKOK - BANG PA IN, AYUTTHAYA, CRUISE WITH LUNCH – Full Day (B.L.)
Breakfast at the hotel. Meet with the Italian guide and depart to discover the ancient capital of Thailand. The first visit is to Bang Pa In, reached by a short journey of about 60 kilometers north of Bangkok, along the banks of the Chao Phraya River. Bang Pa In is one of the summer palaces of the Thai Royal Family, dating back to the seventeenth century, before the establishment of Bangkok as the capital. Subsequently falling into disuse for a long period, all the buildings you will visit date back to its rebirth, made possible by King Mongkut (Rama IV) in the nineteenth century. Today, the palace is rarely used, mainly for state ceremonies, and not as a royal summer residence. We continue with the Ayutthaya Historical Park, the city founded around 1350, becoming the second Siamese capital after Sukhothai. It flourished from the fourteenth to the eighteenth century, becoming one of the world's largest and most cosmopolitan urban areas and a center of global diplomacy and trade. Ayutthaya was strategically located on an island surrounded by three rivers connecting the city to the sea. This site was chosen because it was above the tide of the Gulf of Siam as it existed at that time, preventing the city from being attacked by maritime warships of other nations. The city was attacked and razed to the ground by the Burmese army in 1767, forcing the inhabitants to abandon it. It was never rebuilt in the same location and today is a vast archaeological site, listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1991. After the temple visits, a beautiful cruise awaits us with lunch served on board. With the vehicle, we return to Bangkok to the Wat Chong-Lom pier (Nonthaburi), where you will be welcomed on board the Grand Pearl Cruise Line. Here, a sumptuous buffet lunch with a variety of Eastern and Western cuisines will be served while you relax, enjoying the fascinating scenery along the river of kings. The boat will then head towards Nonthaburi, passing the island of Koh Kred, where a dense Mon community lives, before reaching the city of Bangkok. Coffee will be served on board as you enjoy the lovely views along the riverbanks, such as the colorful Royal Barge House, Thammasart University, Sirirat Hospital, the Royal Grand Palace, and the graceful Temple of the Dawn, with its magnificent spire of 79 meters, next to Wat Kallayanamitr, one of the city's most famous temples. Around 16:00, arrival and disembarkation at the River City commercial complex pier. Transfer to the hotel by air-conditioned vehicle.
