Today's half day tour includes three of the most important Buddhist temples in Bangkok. Wat Trimit also known as the temple of the Golden Buddha houses a 3 meter tall statue made from solid gold and weighing 5.5 tons. You will then pass through Chinatown on your way to Wat Pho, the temple of the reclining Buddha and home to the Chedis of the Kings. At 46 meters in length and 15 meters high the Buddha is the largest in Bangkok and illustrates the passing of the Buddha into nirvana. The Grand Palace is one of the most beautiful samples of an ancient Siamese court. It used to be the residence of the Kings of Bangkok. Here you will see palaces which were used for different occasions: the Funeral Palace, the Reception Palace, the Throne Hall, the Coronation Hall, the Royal Guest House, and Wat Phra Keo, the beautiful Emerald Buddha Temple. To round off the tour, we call in at a local lapidary factory and showroom where you will be able to get locally made jewelry, handicrafts and silk at competitive prices.
Day 03: Bangkok (B/L)
When you think of Thailand, the unique Floating Market is one of the first images that springs to mind. Experience the most authentic of the floating markets at Damnoen Saduak, to the south west of the city and enjoy an afternoon of insight into Thai culture at the Rose Garden. You’ll have an exciting long tail boat ride along the nearby canals to the site of the market, where you will find the locals selling everything possibly imaginable from their boats. Plenty of shopping bargains to be found. Then it’s onto the Rose Garden, a beautiful resort area, where lunch is taken. After lunch you will have time to wander around the gardens & the recreated Thai village with lots of interesting & varied handicrafts on display. However make sure you make your way to the auditorium in time to get a good seat for the excellent cultural show. The show gives you an idea of many aspects of the Thai way of life: Thai dancing, wedding and monk ordination ceremonies, kick boxing, sword & long pole fighting, fingernail dancing.
