PLACES TO VISIT IN BANGKOK:-
WAT PHRA KAEO
High
on its golden altar made of gilt carved
wood, the Emerald Buddha wears one of three
seasonal costumes. This lanna style Buddha
image is in a seated position in the attitude
of meditation. The Emerald Buddha was first
found in 1434 while covered in stucco. Years
later, the stucco started to crumble away
and several miracles occurred, giving the
Buddha a reputation for bringing good fortune.

When
King Rama I ascended the throne in 1782,
he decided to move the capital city from
the area on the west bank of the Chao Phraya
River, where the former Thonburi Palace
was located, to the Eastern side of the
river. The construction work lasted for
three years. The Grand Palace was built
then, with a temple or Royal Chapel located
within the compound of the palace.

features the largest reclining Buddha in
Bangkok and the largest collection of Buddha
images in Thailand. Wat Pho came regarded

on stone slabs around the temple which people
