Safe in the bowels of Kao San *Welcome to Bangkok*

Ananta Samakhom Throne Hall / Vimanmek Mansion

This is Thailand. Home of the kings for 200 years past. The center of Bangkok and the Chakri dynasty. The grand palace is three parts. The Emerald Buddha, the public part of the palace that tourists can see and the part that is behind the gates that houses the rest of the palace and all the palaces of the past queens. 

Grand Palace

Put together by a great man the house and its buildings show a western touch to all things Thai. 150 Baht to get in but worth it. 

Jim Thompson House

King Chulalongkorn Statue and Parut Sakawan Palace

National Museum

Thailand is known for the Royal Barges amongst many other things. They are awe inspiring and will be out again I hear tell in August 2011 in honor of the King. This is a MUST see for Bangkok. You can take a boat but best to walk the bridge and use the feet to get you there. Near by is the dock where they work on the barges.

Royal Barge Museum

This is one of those great examples of something done right. All about Thailand and the people. More modern in its look than the National Museum with lots of hands on exhibits. Great one for the kids. 

Siam Museum

Lovely simple Palace in Bangkok. Excellent examples of traditional Thai houses and an amazing lacquer house. Should take about an hour to tour. 

Suan Pakkad Palace

Wat Benchamabophit (Marble Temple)

Wat Bowonniwetwihran Ratchaworawiharn

This royal temple is .... WOW.... The temples main function seems to be looking after the funeral rites for those the Palace feels have done great works for the country and the rites are sponsored by the Palace. 
The temple is just so beautiful and done very very well and I would rate it the best of all the temples in the country as far as pure elegance, beauty and what a temple should be, a haven of tranquility. Go See it!!! 

Wat Debsirindrawas Ratchaworawiharn (Thepsurin)

Wat Khaek (Sri Maha Mariamman Temple)

Wat Pho - Temple of the Reclining Buddha

A top one or two of Temples to see. Quieter than most as far as tourists. Not as old but very very beautiful. 

Wat Ratchabophit Sathitmahasimaram Ratchaworiharn

These are the places that one just has to see in Bangkok. It is a strange city and offers almost too much to see and do. So these are top.
