#Bangkok Itinerary Bangkok, Thailand is a world-famous tourist resort city. Every day, thousands of tourists come to Bangkok for sightseeing and vacation. There are many ancient temples and architectural attractions near Khaosan Road in the old city of Bangkok. This time we will introduce a one-day tour itinerary for Khaosan Road in the old city of Bangkok. All attractions are free to visit and take photos📸, no tickets are required. You need to take off your shoes when entering the temple. Itinerary introduction: First take public transportation or taxi to Wat Bowonniwet (Bowonniwet side) วัดบวรนิเวศฯ (ฝั่งบวรนิเวศน์). After getting off the bus, we arrived at the first attraction: Wat Phra That Samantabhadra วัดบวรนิเวศวิหาร ราชวรวิหาร. The temple's architecture combines Thai, Chinese and European art, showing its greatness and beauty. Architecture from the Period During the reigns of Kings Rama I and IV, Thailand traded with China via cargo ships. It flourished during the reign of King Rama III until it became known by this name. Thailand has absorbed many civilizations including Chinese art. The temple building is tall and majestic, and the exterior decoration structure is exquisite, making it very photogenic. After visiting this attraction, we came to another museum attraction nearby: The Museum & Library of Abbots of Wat Bovoranives Viharaพิพิธภัณฑ์และห้องสมุดเจ้าอาวาสวัดบวรนิเวศวิหาร. This wonderful museum is housed in a European Gothic cathedral style Buddhist temple building, which is quite unusual and provides a very good bilingual account of the contributions of the Siamese/Thai Supreme Gurus and temple abbots to the country's historical, cultural and spiritual heritage. The air conditioning in the museum is fully turned on and it is very cool. After visiting the museum, walk forward and you will see the third attraction: Ancient City Wall กำแพงพระนคร. One of the only two remaining sections of the old city wall of Rattanakosin, the other section is located not far away at Mahakam Fort. Built in the 1780s, it is about 7.2 km long and has 14 bastions along its walls, as well as 63 gates leading into the city. This section is 1.8 meters thick and 6 meters high. The dimensions have remained the same for hundreds of years, and it also has an ancient door. The photo taking 📸 is very good. After visiting this attraction, walk another 500 meters to the last attraction: Wat Tri Thotsathep Worawihan วัดตรีทศเทพ. The temple was built in the Ayutthaya era in the early Siamese dynasty, and it has hundreds of years of history. It is a veritable historical monument temple and a third-level royal temple. The temple building is tall and majestic, and the exterior decorative structure is full of Siamese cultural and artistic style design. It is exquisite and very photogenic. There are not many tourists in the temple, and it is quiet and peaceful. There are public toilets and chairs for tourists to rest in the temple.
