Royal Grand Palace - best described as a walled town, this is a must see for anyone visiting Bangkok. The palace contains many sub-palaces as well as the Temple of the Emerald Buddha.
Brahma Shrine - located outside the Grand Hyatt Erawan hotel this shrine is visited by those who are seeking to have their wishes granted.
Chinatown - located around Chakrawat Road, midway between the Grand Palace & Hualamphong railway station, Chinatown offers a profusion of gold shops, general shopping items as well as the “Thieves Market” and Phahurat Cloth Market. A great place for bargains.
Temple of the Golden Buddha - one of the most unusual Buddhist Temples in Bangkok housing the invaluable Golden Buddha - 5½ tons of solid gold!
