Must Visit
Incredible sights! Definitely worth the visit. Wat Pho is at a distance of 10 min or 800m walk from The Grand Palace. It is located on Sanam Chai road and Maharaj road next to the Grand Palace. Opening Hours: Daily 08:00 – 18:30 Admission fee is 200 Baht per person, includes a bottle of water from the vending machine. You have to take your shoes off and put them in a bag when you enter and then carry them with you. Wear easy shoes so you can slip them on and off easily. One of the oldest and largest temples in Bangkok features the famous Reclining Buddha, which is the largest in Thailand measuring more than 150 feet in length. Reclining Buddha statue has impressive foot print. More places to enjoy such as main hall with bronze Buddha statue.I like the mosaic structures in the courtyard of the temple and interior painting on the wall. it will probably take about one and a half hours to appreciate all the sights. Must-See: The Reclining Buddha, Phra Ubosot, Royal Chedi (a collection of four towering tiled chedi (stupa), the granite statues and the massage pavilions within the complex.

The Reclining Buddha
A good place to go experience Bangkok. The reclining Buddha is extravagant and was beautifully hand made. The details of the temple from the floor to the roof was simply amazing. We went around lunch time on a weekday and boy there were a lot of people. Entrance is around 200 baht per person and PWD’s are free. This Temple is quite big that there are a lot of things you can learn about the Thai’s. There is also Thai massage available in this place. Aside from the Grand Palace and Wat Pho is is a good place to visit, make sure to bring fans and pick up your free water before you exit the temple.
