The Grand Palace in Bangkok


Under the great guidance of Thai tour guides "O" and "Apple" Roy and I were given a tour of The Grand Palcae in Bangkok.

This is the Palace from just inside the main gates.

King Rama the III or maybe the IV really liked the Angkor Wat. He wanted it moved to Thailand, but had to settle for a model instead. Notice my covered shoulders and long skirt. Both are required to be on the palace grounds.

The coronation building was desigend to bring together European and Thai architecture.

Roy and I had a great time!
