Mandatory Place to visit in Bangkok

Maybe most of people already know what are the mandatory places to visit

in Bangkok, but there’s nothing wrong if I share my opinion about this. Bangkok, Thailand famous as the cheap travel destination in South East Asia. You can find cheap food, cheap things to buy, also transportation and accomodation cost is cheap. There is a unique transport in Thailand, water taxi that found across chao praya river, if you use the reguler boat that usually used by local you just need to pay 15 baht (0,5 dollar), but if you use tourist boat or chao praya express you must pay 40 baht for one way or 150 baht for one day hop on-off.

Where should you go if you only have one day in Bangkok ?

First is Grand Palace, the most iconic place in Bangkok.It’s mandatory place to visit if you want to know more about Thailand history. You must use proper clothes here, hot pants and tank top are prohibited, better you use long shirt and long skirt/pants. To enter this place you must pay for 500 baht (around 16 dollar). You must going here in the morning to avoid the crowds, and don’t forget to use hat or umbrealla because the weather is hot.

The second destination is Wat Arun, you can reach this place using chao praya water taxi after exploring Grand Palace. Wat Arun is a temple like Grand Palace, but it has different vibes, if Grand Palace have dominant gold, wat Arun dominant white and have more ornaments, it’s not as crowded as Grand Palace.

The third destination is Asiatique. It’s the best place to spend your evening with your family, your loved one or your friends while waiting for sunset. You also can find some foods and souvenirs with cheap price.

I think if you’re going to this three place that’s enough too proof that you’ve been travelling in Thailand
