THE GRAND PALACE - BANGKOK THAILAND

They said; "The Grand Palace and Wat Pra Kaew really are places you must visit while you are in Bangkok. Both have considerable historical significance and are extremely beautiful places to see."
I went there again the other week just to accompany a new friend who just arrived from Philippines with my newfound friends here in Bangkok.
On my first visit there with my students (as part of our Educational trip), I didn't get the opportunity to see the Grand Palace because I was just so busy going around Wat Phra Kaew marvelling the big temples and everything just around the compound of Grand Palace.

Appreciating the flowers along the road is refreshing.
