Bangkok, the capital city of Thailand is the most popular city among tourists. This city has grown in terms of trade and commerce, with a substantial increase in finance. Trips to Bangkok have grown immensely among tourists and this in turn has lead to an increase in a number of different Bangkok packages and Thailand packages. It’s a must visit place for all kinds of shopaholics and explorers. Bangkok is famous for its food, culture, tradition, clothing and the most important of all – The Grand Palace.

The journey to Bangkok is worthless if you haven’t been to the most beautiful place rather palace, in the world. The heart of Bangkok is the Grand Palace. If you love traveling, if you crave to explore the different complexities made by human hands, then what better place to visit than this testimonial – The Grand Palace. It is a treat to human eyes, a back-packer’s delight, leaving the back-packers spellbound by its mere existence. This palace goes beyond our time and it once housed the Chakri Dynasty’s kings. It’s a heaven for travelers. The architecture itself is so startling and jaw-dropping that one would wear out of films in their cameras but not of the view of this extraordinary creation.

The Palace houses four buildings of vibrant set of colors, orange, green, red, yellow – the colors of their religion, Buddhism. As such, one cannot really go into any of the Palace’s four buildings. But one can always see them from outside and believe me folks its totally worth exploring this Palace. Its soil is sacred with some of the important Thai temples within its perimeter – the Wat Phra Kaew. The Wat Phra Kaew houses the most venerated Buddha image in the country, the Emerald Buddha, made from a single solid piece of lucid green jade. It provides a soothing atmosphere to tourists by enabling them to devote some time to their deity while appreciating the beauty of this exquisite palace. Bangkok packages will surely ease your pockets in your quest of exploring this magnificent work of human beings.
 
The grounds of this breath-taking Palace are slightly more spacious with manicured trees and plants and ceremonial guards. The main building being Chakri Mahaprasad Hall, which is European in appearance with a Thai style roof. The trip does not end here. Shopping and tourism are believed to be the two sides of a same coin. So to make your Palace tour memorable you can buy many locally made jewellery, handicraft sand silk at lustrous prices. With all these comes a restriction more like a general rule, which is to be obeyed by every tourist – the dress code. Stringent Dress Code Policy applies for visiting this marvelous Palace. Only trousers or long knee-length skirt are permitted, & shoes that completely enclose the foot (no sandals, open toed shoes etc.are allowed inside).
