About Bangcoc

Banguecoque, a exuberante capital da Tailândia, alinha templos dourados e palácios reais junto ao rio, entre comida de rua, mercados e arranha-céus.

O Grande Palácio e o Wat Phra Kaew, casa do venerado Buda de Esmeralda, cintilam na antiga ilha real de Rattanakosin. Ao lado, o Wat Pho abriga um gigantesco Buda reclinado e uma famosa escola de massagem tailandesa, e do outro lado do rio Chao Phraya as agulhas incrustadas de porcelana do Wat Arun brilham ao pôr do sol.
