1. By his royal command, a palace was built to serve not only as his residence but also as the site of administrative offices. The royal compound has been known since then as The Grand Palace.

2. Wat Pho, the official name being Wat Phra Chetuphon Vimolmangklararm Rajwaramahaviharn, is the first-grade royal monastery, regarded as the most important one during the reign of King Rama I of the Chakri Dynasty. The importance of this is due to the King having managed the restoration of Wat Phodharam, an old monastery from the Ayudhya period, and had it re-established as a royal monastery located near the Grand Palace. Some ashes of King Rama I was also kept under the pedestal of the principal Buddha image known as Phra Buddha Theva Patimakorn in the main chapel.

6. Chinatown is one of the largest Chinatowns in the world. It was founded in 1782 when the city was established as the capital of the Rattanakosin Kingdom and served as the home of the mainly Teochew immigrant Chinese population, who soon became the city's dominant ethnic group.

8. Temple of Golden Buddha has the largest solid gold Buddha image in the world. For centuries the true identity and value of the image were not known until by accident in the 1950’s it was discovered that the image was made of solid gold. The image is more than three meters high, weighs some five and a half tons and is most likely some 700 to 800 years old. It is the largest solid gold Buddha image in the world.

9. The Emerald Buddha, a dark green statue, is in a standing form, about 66 centimetres (26 in) tall, carved from a single jade stone ("emerald" in Thai means deep green colour and not the specific stone). It is carved in the meditating posture in the style of the Lanna school of northern Thailand.

   30 min

10. We would recommend spending at least an hour visiting the temple. Although it’s known as the Temple of the Dawn, it's absolutely stunning at sunset, particularly when lit up at night. Even so, the quietest time to visit is early morning, before the crowds. Given the beauty of the architecture and fine craftsmanship, it’s not surprising that Wat Arun is considered by many as one of the most beautiful temples in Thailand. The prang (spire) by the Chao Phraya is one of Bangkok's world-famous landmarks.

    30 min

11. Like all urban rivers, the history of the Chao Phraya is intertwined with the city it flows through. The original site was chosen by early settlers because of its fertility and abundant fish. Later, King Taksin, after the fall of Ayutthaya to the Burmese, located his new capital here on the western banks that's today known as Thonburi.

About Bangkok

Bangkok, la exuberante capital de Tailandia, alinea templos dorados y palacios reales junto al río, entre comida callejera, mercados y rascacielos.

El Gran Palacio y el Wat Phra Kaew, hogar del venerado Buda Esmeralda, relucen en la antigua isla real de Rattanakosin. Al lado, el Wat Pho cobija un gigantesco Buda reclinado y una famosa escuela de masaje tailandés, y al otro lado del río Chao Phraya las agujas incrustadas de porcelana del Wat Arun brillan al atardecer.
