PURE LUXE TRAVEL

Thailand - Bangkok

It is one of Asia’s most cosmopolitan cities with magnificent temples and palaces, authentic canals, busy markets and a vibrant nightlife that has something for everyone. Bangkok has many exquisitely decorated Buddhist temples. The amazing craftsmanship and elaborate details are wonderful.

The Grand Palace is a stunning historic complex of buildings. It is among the top tourist attractions in the whole of Thailand, and has played an important role in the country’s history, being home to the Kings of Siam since 1782.

Wat Arun Ratchawararam Ratchawaramahawihan is often known as the Temple of Dawn. Its soaring golden tower is a spectacular sight at any time of day but is especially impressive when the sun is setting on the horizon.

Dusit Palace was built between 1897 and 1901 as a place to go to beat the heat of the Grand Palace. This palace complex is really quite different to the elaborate architecture and ornamentation of the Grand Palace, but even so, it is still among the top things to do in Bangkok because of its differences.
