The Grand Palace, Bangkok
The Grand Palace is one of the popular tourist attractions in Bangkok. So when I got there I saw what I expected to see, loads of Japanese tourists (lol, these people are EVERYWHERE I tell you). Got there early before opening time so the place was not very crowded until much later.
Its easy to get there. Just take the MRT to Hua Lom Pong station and a taxi straight to The Grand Palace. After what happened yesterday, I don't trust the tours anymore. Taxis are affordable in Bangkok so don't worry about the cost. Just be mindful when they offer flat rates to rip you off.
About the place, its grand. Not as grand as the Forbidden City in China but its way grand compared to my house. But for a huge crib this palace has a really small entrance. You'll have to check that out yourself because I did not get a picture of it.
I really like the details put into the architecture. Sure looks like lots of effort have been put into building this place. You'll see huge, massive structure covered with texture and carvings from head to toe.
Coincidentally a bunch of school children had a day trip to the Grand Palace. More photo op!
