#Bangkok Itinerary
Bangkok, Thailand is a world-famous tourist resort city. Every day, thousands of tourists come to Bangkok for sightseeing and vacation. The Chao Phraya River is the mother river of Bangkok and even the whole of Thailand. There are many scenic spots along the Chao Phraya River. This time I will introduce a one-day tour along the Chao Phraya River. All itinerary attractions are free to visit and take photos📸, no tickets are required. You need to take off your shoes when entering the main temple building.
Itinerary introduction: First take public transportation or a taxi to RMUTT Thewet Centerมทร.พระนคร ศูนย์เทเวศร์. After getting off the bus, walk for five minutes to the first attraction: Wat Devaraj Kunchon วัดเทวราชกุญชรวรวิหาร. This is a three-level Worawihan-type royal temple located in Bangkok's Dusit district, along the Phadung Krung Kasem canal and the Chao Phraya River, with the temple's ordination hall renovated by Queen Sirikit. There are beautiful murals inside the hall, which are well preserved. The decoration is mainly sea blue. The temple is also home to the Golden Teak Museum. Wat Thewarat is a Thai building with Sino-Portuguese architectural style. It is built in traditional style with golden teak and has a meditation building in the shape of a hip roof. The art from the reign of King Rama V was combined with the art from the reign of King Rama VII and is considered a Buddhist practice building. It has beautiful artwork that is hard to find in Bangkok. Importantly, the temple has preserved many ancient buildings. Especially the Devaraja Dhamma Sabha building. It is more than a hundred years old so that future generations can also study the art of the Rattanakosin period. Taking photos 📸 will definitely be a hit. After visiting this attraction, walk forward to the next attraction: the National Library of Thailand. This is a 118-year-old library. The main building of the library is designed in European Gothic art style. It is tall, majestic and magnificent, with exquisite exterior decoration structure, and it is very photogenic. The library has a complete collection of books and you can enter for free with your passport. The air conditioning in the library is very sufficient and cool, and there are free public toilets. After visiting the library, walk forward and enter the last attraction: Hor Wachira Wuthanuson หอวชิราวุธานุสรณ์ Museum. A very interesting museum with very polite staff. The main exhibition is themed around King Rama VI, recreating scenes from his life in a realistic way.
