What makes Private Tour: Bangkok’s Grand Palace Complex and Wat Phra Kaew a unique experience ?
Wat Phra Kaew, also called the Temple of the Emerald Buddha is considered as one of the most sacred temple in Thailand. During the tour you will be able to enjoy the outdoor and indoor of the potent religio-political symbol of Thailand.
Built in traditional Thai architecture mixed with European designs, The Grand Palace complex, once the official home for the Kings of Siam, is unquestionably one of the Thailand’s major tourist highlights. The King still uses the Grand Palace for certain ceremonial occasions and the regal flavor within its enormous royal grounds is still evident. During the tour you will visit the Royal Funeral Hall and the Royal Coronation Hall. Enjoy a 90-minute visit here.
The main centerpiece of the complex however is the 45 centimeter Emerald Buddha. Carved from just one piece of Jade it is the holiest and most revered religious object in Thailand. The Emerald Buddha is housed within Wat Phra Kaew, which is a very ornately decorated building whose roof tiles reach up into the sky.
The tour concludes at Gems Gallery and a return shuttle can be provided by the Gallery to selected hotels.
Enjoy the upper terrace from where you will be able to watch both the grand palace and Wat Phra Kaew (The Temple of the Emerald Buddha) from a different light and perspective.
