Top Architecture in Bangkok

Bring some water and snacks! The prices inside the palace are marked up and you don't want to spend a fortune just to hydrate.

I think exploring the outer grounds first is a smart move. It's less crowded and gives you a great vibe before hitting the main attractions.

My advice is to take some time to chat with the local vendors outside. They have great stories and you might find a cool souvenir at a better price than inside!

I recommend getting there right when it opens at 8:30 AM. The crowds are way less, and you can take stunning pics without hoards of people in the background.

Dress modestly, but I think comforable shoes are a must! There’s a LOT of walking. I wore sandals and regretted it halfway through since my feet hurt so much.

Check out the little stalls right outside for souvenirs and snacks. I didn’t, and ended up getting a bit ripped off inside! You can find cooler stuff outside, trust me!

Plan on spending about 2-3 hours at least. I thought I'd be in and out quickly, but there's so much to see, I lost track of time and could have missed out!

Try to get there right when it opens at 8:30 AM. I went later, and it was super crowded! You’ll have a chance to snap some amazing pics without a bunch of people in them.
