The architectures and decorations of the palace is amazing and I do appreciate the hard work they put in maintaining this dazzling building. Within these walls are situated government offices
and the Chapel Royal of the Emerald Buddha besides the royal residences. The palace's complex is really big and the hot weather was really torturing us. How wonderful if it would be a windy day while visiting.
The entrance ticket available at the arrow pointing area with a beige color roof top. You just need to walk along the entrance and get your ticket there!
The entrance fees per person is 500 Baht, the price seem increasing from year to year. I read about people's blog post in 2013 was 400 Baht.
This is how the ticket look like, the left one is the entrance ticket to Grand Palace and Temple of Emerald Buddha while the right one is the entrance ticket to Vimanmek Mansion Musuem, Support Musuem Abhisek Dusit Throne Hall and Sanam Chandra Palace.
There are some dress code while visiting to the Palace. My advice is please wear long jeans and sport shoes because you got long route to walk.
By the way, you can rent the sarong by paying a 200 Baht as deposit but the main point is after you finish your trip, you need to walk to the entrance to return the sarong, so inconvenience izzit? So please prepare yourself for the dress code because after the trip, your leg will freaking tired, believe me!
A tourist guidance and map is given at the entrance to prevent you get lost in the Palace.
You can see the Free Tour Counter once you get in. Do sign up if you need it!
The Golden Tower behind us was built in Sri Lankan style and it was the library
which store the Buddhist manuscripts but it is closed for public.
I specially appreciate their hard work on maintaining this, as you can see every architecture is magnificent. Thumbs Up!
