Temple of the Emerald Buddha and the Grand Palace

#星马泰城市景点 When you go to Bangkok, you must visit these two Bangkoks? The scenic spot has the majestic Bangkok royal buildings on one side and the magnificent and solemn Buddhist holy land on the other. The Grand Palace was built in 1782 during the reign of King Rama I, however, after the death of King Rama VIII of Thailand in 1946, King Rama IX moved the royal family to Chittaradara Palace, but the palace symbolizing the dynasty still exists. Just like the UK, there is a shift change of royal guards. Thailand's national treasure, the Jade Buddha, is enshrined in the Main Hall of the Grand Palace. The statue is 48.3 cm wide at the knee and 66 cm high. It is carved from a single piece of jade with exquisite craftsmanship and a natural look. The changing of clothes is presided over by the current King of Thailand himself, who dresses the Emerald Buddha in different golden robes to symbolize the changing of seasons. Please note that you are not allowed to take photos inside, and must abide by relevant regulations when visiting. Sleeveless clothing, shorts, slippers, and sandals are prohibited.
