Bangkok: 3 Major Royal Temples Walking Tour
About this experience
Explore key landmarks of Bangkok: the Grand Palace, Wat Pho, and Wat Arun. This tour covers each site’s history and architecture. Meet your guide at the Golden Place and start with the Grand Palace. Observe the detailed Thai architecture and the Emerald Buddha, carved from jade, at Wat Phra Kaew. Note the palace's golden stupas, murals, and ceremonial halls. The mix of Thai and European styles is noticeable, especially in the Chakri Maha Prasat Hall.
Next, visit Wat Pho, home to the Reclining Buddha. Look at the stupas and murals that illustrate Buddha's life and Thai mythology. The Buddha is 46 meters long, covered in gold leaf, and has feet inlaid with mother-of-pearl symbols.

HMBotel notes for choosing your ticket
Compare the inclusions above with your plans: admission, a guided visit and a combination ticket may cover different services. The venue name alone is not enough to compare them.
Check the meeting point and arrival instructions before adding another activity. The displayed duration describes the activity; plan travel from your hotel and your return separately.
Booking and payment take place with Tiqets. On that final page, confirm the date, participants, visit language, final price and cancellation rules; an indicative HMBotel price is not a guarantee of availability.
