Is a MANDATORY place if you come to Bangkok, photos with background pagoda in the Grand Palace as a sign that you've been to Bangkok this palace began to be established since 1782 when the reign of King Rama I. Some expansion and building additions in line increasing time. But this time, the palace was not occupied by the King of Thailand, but the place is still used for religious events and also to some government officials.
In one of these temples are the Emerald Buddha statue, where visitors are allowed in but may not take photos inside. And because this is a place of worship, visitors are required to wear clothing polite, do not use shorts, sleeveless shirts, etc.

2 Wat Arun
Temple is also a must-visit is the Wat Arun Buddhist temple is situated on the banks of the Chao Phraya river. Also known as the "Temple of Dawn", named after Aruna, the sun god who is in India. Usually visitors come to this place by boat across the river Chao Phraya from the Grand Palace.
This place even though the area is not large, but it provides the scenic beauty of the moment we climbed onto it. Be careful when rising to the top, because the ladder is quite steep. But having reached the top, the landscape is comparable to the sacrifice.
This temple will be more beautiful when seen at night from the Chao Phraya river, sprinkled with light.

8 Wading River Chao Phraya
The river is one of the modes of transportation in Bangkok, and to go to Wat Arun, we usually use a boat to get to the location. Quite exciting as well does this water taxi ride, sometimes ciprat2 contact with river water is not too clean. In addition to the boat being sailed the water taxi, if we use the services of the tour, there will be scheduled for a boat ride on the Chao Phraya river while feeding the fish.
Another alternative is to use cruise over dinner. Well the latter is indeed quite expensive, because in the boat we can eat as much, and accompanied by a singer who can sing songs from various countries, while enjoying the beauty of the Chao Phraya river at night.
