The Temple of the Emerald Buddha

A beautiful place with lots of gold. The actual Buddha is much smaller than expected, but still worth seeing. I particularly liked the artwork on the walls. There were fans in the building and it was much cooler than outside which was nice. However it was SO busy when we went it, was almost too busy. There were people everywhere pushing from all directions. It was also very hot. Cool place, but make sure you GO EARLY. I’d also recommend booking your tickets in advance online so you can beat some of the longgggg queues.

Beautiful place although many tourists. Make sure to dress properly and get there the earliest possible to avoid crowd. I recommend the coconut drink to make the visit even nicer.

Commonly known in English as the Temple of Emerald Buddha, the temple located within the grounds of the Grand Palace it is regarded as the most sacred Buddhist temple in Thailand and it enshrines the highly revered Buddha image meticulously carved from a single block of jade. There are so many beautiful intricate details and ornaments but you should know it’s extremely crowded. I didn’t quite enjoy the experience itself because of the heat and crowds but it’s a must visit when in Bangkok. Note: Be aware you’d need to wear long items of clothing (covering shoulders and below the knees)

The site houses a historical Jade Buddha, though photography is unfortunately not permitted inside the temple itself. However, photos are allowed in the surrounding area. The grounds are clean, with clear signage, making it easy to navigate. The only downside is the somewhat high ticket price of 500 baht per adult. Other than that, there’s little to complain about. Pro: History and culture value Clean Clear sign Cons: Tickets are expensive

Admission fee for foreigners is 500 baht which includes the Grand palace and a couple of museums. This is a must see in Bangkok, although the Emerald Buddha is very small it’s still a beautiful temple complex. Closes at 3:30 PM and it’s very crowded, people taking pics everywhere so it’s hard to move around as you have to wait to let them take their pic!

A must-visit for any traveler to Bangkok, this temple is the heart of the Rattanakosin Era. Situated near Tha Chang Pier, it offers easy access via land or water. With its beautiful ubosot and impressive guardian giants, this temple is a visual treat. Note that while Thai nationals enter for free, foreigners are charged a 500 baht fee. It's a unique experience, as there are no resident monks here.

Amazing experience. I saw alot of people couldn't get in due to dress codes. So please make sure you wear pants and a proper top that covers your chest. Luckily I researched it lol. It is very hot so remember sunscreen,water,hat,sandals etc. The Emerald Buddha was smaller than I thought but it was still an amazing experience.

Must visit places in Bangkok, single green jade Buddha & gold reclining Buddha surrounded by fantastic architectural buildings.
