We dedicated the second day in the old royal district, Ko Ratanakosin area to exploring the famous temples in Bangkok, Wat Pho and Wat Arun.
As we had split our visit to the Grand Palace and the temples across two days (read post here), this post is part II of our series, where we had ample time to stroll the temple grounds and also watch the sunset by the river while sipping on our drinks…
The old royal district, Ko Ratanakosin houses the most famous and sacred sites of Thailand; Wat Phra Kaew (famous for the Emerald Buddha and the Grand Palace) and Wat Pho (famous for the reclining Buddha).
While several of the guide books and walking tours suggest covering both sites in a few hours of the day, we actually split them across two days which worked out pretty well! The scorching heat of the daytime can be quite exhausting and would have otherwise made for some cranky shots 😉
