About this

The Grand Palace in Bangkok was the official residence of the Kings of Siam from 1782 until 1925 and remains an active site for royal ceremonies. The complex includes several buildings constructed in traditional Thai architectural styles alongside European-influenced structures added during the 19th and early 20th centuries. Visitors can see the royal halls, throne rooms, and the Temple of the Emerald Buddha, which houses Thailand’s most sacred religious image. The site is managed by the Bureau of the Royal Household and maintains strict dress codes and behavioral guidelines for all entrants.
