Top Architecture in Thailand

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.

Check out the Royal Chapel but be careful about the strict dress code. I saw so many visitors getting turned away for inappropriate clothing!

Don’t forget sunscreen if it’s a sunny day. I was burned up after just an hour of wandering around. I’d suggest left the sunscreen in your bag for easy access.

I suggest checking the weather ahead of time. My visit was cut short by rain, but had I checked, I could have planned better. Sunscreen is also a must, even on cloudy days.

If you can, do a mini photoshoot at the bridge leading to the temple. I got some of my fave photos there, and it's less crowded than inside the temple itself.

I recommend arriving around 8 AM when it opens. The calm atmosphere lets you enjoy the details without the crowds. Later in the day, it can feel super busy!
