The Grand Palace is home to many historic sites including Wat Phra Kaew (Temple of the Emerald Buddha). The beautiful Temple of the Emerald Buddha is adorned in golden spires and glittering mosaics. A major attraction on this tour is the Emerald Buddha. According to popular belief, the ancient Emerald Buddha came from Sri Lanka. Although art historians generally believe that it was crafted in 14th-century Thailand. The Emerald Buddha is mad from a single piece of jade and sits atop a huge gold altar in the center of the temple. Despite its national importance, Wat Phra Kaew is the only temple in Thailand that doesn't have any resident monks. Also visit the Gem Gallery. Early morning is the best time to visit to avoid crowds and because the attractions close at 15:30. Dont miss out on these ornate and historical symbols of Thailand!
