Bangkok Daytrip
TOUR CODE : BT
A visit to Thailand is hardly complete
without a visit to the Grand Palace and Emerald Buddha,
a boat trip along the Chao Phraya River, a chance to
marvel at the Reclining Buddha at Wat Pho and the solid
Gold Buddha opportunities, all to be found in Bangkok,
City of Angels.
Grand Palace
Construction of the Royal Palace began in 1782 and
was completed in time for the coronation of Rama I.
The original living quarters were temporary and made
of wood and thatch and the walls surrounding the palace
were made of wood palisades. After the coronation the
King moved into a mansion built of permanent materials.
The only other building of permanent material at the
time was Wat Phra Si Rattanasatsadaram (Temple of the
Emerald Buddha) and the forts along the walls.
The plan of this new Royal Palace follow that of the
Ayutthaya period. Only the central building seen today
was missing until constructed as the Chakri Maha Prasat
during the reign of King Rama V. The area of the original
palace was about 51 acres. King Rama II expanded the
area to todays size of about 60 acres.
The Royal Palace contains a number of halls, residences,
and other buildings constructed by King Rama I. Later
monarchs altered some and renovated others while still
others were enlarged or torn down to make way for newer
buildings. Read
