- While in Bangkok, we had to visit the most famous temple in all of Thailand, the Grand Palace. We also visited another temple so that we could have a more local experience to compare with the main tourist attraction.

It's a good idea to avoid tuk tuk rides as much as possible, they try to scam you very often in places packed with tourists. Grab or taxi with a meter is the best choice unless you rent a car or motorbike and drive by yourself. 🙂 I miss Thailand and Bangkok so much, it's been 3 years since my last visit there.. Thanks for the nice video. 🤗
Yes you are so right!! Grab is definitely the way to go. You need to come back for a visit haha!! It is such a wonderful place! Thanks for your comment :)
Sorry for the Tuk-tuk driver's behavior and this is the worst problem for traveling here. A ticket is for both the visit to the Temple and the Grand Palace.
That is ok!! It was an experience :) the grand palace was sooo amazing. Thank you for your comment!!
Yes, stay smart and be firm to avoid the scam. Good job. 🎉🎉🎉
I am so glad Jacob knew what he was doing!! Thank you so much 🙌🏼
Grand Palace is the appropriate name for this place. So ornate and impressive! Thanks for sharing!
Right?? It is so detailed and beautiful! 😍
The complex is composed of 2 area. One is the real grand palace ( the place where the royal family lived) and the second one is the temple area(a temple exclusively for the royal family only " temple of the emerald Buddha". These 2 area are adjacent to each other.
That is good to know! Thank you so much for that information :)
Bangkok's Grand Palace was built in the style of Ayutthaya Grand Palace with a royal temple inside reserved only for the King and relatives to hold Buddhist ceremony. Since the temple is in the Grand Palace there is no monk living in the temple. It is only the functional temple in Thailand that has no monk resides in. Monks from temples nearby are usually invited when the King performs Buddhist ceremony. It is a tradition that any novice who passes the highest Pali Grade 9 language proficiency will be royally patronaged and ordained into monkhood in this Emerald Buddha temple. Pali is the language spoken during the Buddha's era. Buddhist Dharma was originally transmitted by Pali oral tradition (still practiced even today when monks cite Pali sutra every morning and evening) but later transcribed into Pali alphabets, similar to Sanskrit which is the main language of Hinduism. There is a nationwide exam conducted annually to assess Pali proficiency and few novices/monks pass Grade 9 language each year, normally fewer than 10. So you can imagine how hard it is.
At the Grand Palace, you can see Garudas (mythical flying deity) grab Nagas (mythical serpent-like deity living underworld). They are sworn mortal enemies in Hindu and Buddhist legends. However, both are God Vishnu's mounts. When travelling, God Vishnu mounts on Garuda. When resting in the sea, God Vishnu lays on bed transformed from Naga's body. Garuda is a sacred deity in Thailand and Indonesia. Thus Indonesia National Airlines is "Garuda" while Thailand's official emblem is Garuda which is affixed in front of official paper and shown on Royal Announcements on Thai TVs. Naga is sacred deity in Thailand and Laos as protector of the Lord Buddha. Temples in the Thailand's North and Laos often feature 2 Nagas at the front leading the steps into the temple. Standalone Naga is featured prominently along Mekong River on both sides of Thailand and Laos as well.
Here is the full name of Bangkok.
Krungthep Mahanakorn Amorn Rattanakosin Mahintra Yuttaya Mahadilokpop Noparat Burirom Udom Rachnivet Mahasathan Amornpimarn Avartarnsathit Sakkatiya Witsanukamprasit
Here is my rough translation. Krungthep the motropolis, the royal capital of Ratanakosin dynasty following Ayutthaya dynasty, a grand palace resided by God King.
Wow!! That is fascinating! That is a long name for Bangkok! Haha!! Thank you for your comment :)
That first temple is so beautiful. Especially the windows! Grand is the perfect name for the second palace!
Soooo gorgeous and less touristy which was very nice! Thanks for watching friends!
Oh wow, that place is amazing. I'm Thai. I haven't seen it. I've never been there. I'm excited along with you. it's very beautiful thanks for sharing I didn't miss a minute and waited for the next one.

We will be staying here for a long time! We are exploring the islands now! Thailand is amazing :)
The Grand Palace and the Temple of the Emerald Buddha, Khaosan road, Chatuchak Weekend Market. Top 3 bucket list places in BKK.
They were amazing 😍 such beautiful places!
There are two explanations for what sculptures represent.
One is that they represent Siam (the former name of Thailand) and other three major Western powers of the colonial era:
Elephant for Siam
Horse for the French (I dont understand this ref tho)
Lion for the British
and Eagle, is of course, for America
Another explanation is that it represents four ethnicities/kingdoms/territories that Siam power reached
Elephant is Lan Xang, the Lao kingdom ("xang" is Lao word for elephant, and in Thai its pronounced "chang")
Horse, pronounced "ma", represents the Burma/Myanmar territory (hence "ma" and Bur*ma* / Myan*ma*r)
Lion is for Singapore ("sing", from Sanskrit language, means "lion" in Thai, and the name "Singapore" which is also have a Sanskrit root, also means "city of lion")
Siamese influence once stretch into Malay peninsula
and Eagle is for the Yonok people, another name for the Northern Thai people. ("nok" means "bird" in Thai)
Thank you for the information :)
มาเที่ยวเมืองไทยบ่อยๆ เพราะเมืองไทยเป็นบ้านหลังที่สองของพวกคุณ
We definitely want to come back as much as possible! It’s such an amazing place 🤩
วัดวังที่กษัตรสยามไทยสร้างครับ สวยงามอลังการ
There's a tunnel to get inside the Grand Palace now.🥰🥰🥰🥰
Thats so interesting!! Thanks for the information :)
Amazing Thailand .
It is such an amazing place! So beautiful 🤩 thanks for watching!
Thanks,
We absolutely love Thailand! Thank you for watching :)
ถ้าไม่จำเป็นคุณไม่ควรนั่งรถตุ๊กตุ๊กนะเอาเปรียบ มากกว่าแท๊กซี่ อันที่จริงคุณควรศึกษาเส้นทางนะ แค่รถเมล์รถประจำทางธรรมดาสีแดง 8บาท สีขาวน้ำเงินธรรดา10บาท รถแอร์ตามระยะทาง ราคาสูงสุดไม่ถึง35บาท เลย อย่างเช่นคุณไป วัดพระแก้วนั่งไปรถเมล์แค่8บาทเอง
That is good to know!! We probably won’t ever take a tuk tuk again, but they are cute!! Hahah! Thanks for the information :)
아~저도 10월 비행기티켓 예약했어요
아름답네요
관광대국 태국, 친절한나라며 볼거리 많은걸로 알고있습니다
잘봤습니다 같은 동선따라다녀봐도 될것같네요..ㅎ
It is such a wonderful country!! We hope you have an amazing trip :)
เราเป็นคนไทย ต้องขอโทษแทนคนขับตุ๊กตุ๊ก ที่นิสัยไม่ดี ทำให้ภาพลักษณ์เมืองไทยเสียหาย ขอบคุณทั้งสองคน ที่มาเที่ยวเมืองไทยค่ะ ขอให้เจอแต่เรื่องดีๆค่ะ
It’s ok we still love Thailand so much ☺️ everyone we have met and talked to is so incredibly nice! Thanks so much for watching!
툭툭기사님이 무슨잘못했는지 자세히는 모르겠지만, 대신 사과하는 태국분들 많이 있네요.
분명 태국분들은 친절할거란 예감이 듭니다. 저는 10월 초 방콕 비행기 예약했어요 기대됩니다~^^#
TukTuks are just for a fun experience. Don't use them to actually go somewhere because every other transport is cheaper and faster. 🙂
That for sure makes sense!! Thanks for your comment :)
Look like "Wat Bawon Temple"
Just walk from Kao San Road 5 Minute
I think you are right :) thanks for watching!
The first temple is a first class royal temple and it's not two temple like you thought. This temple had many sections such as temple section where Buddhists or any people can come in to pray or do some activities, second part is the area that monks live, third section is buddhist college and the forth section is a school for children.
That is good to know!! That is so interesting. Thank you so much for that information :)
พระราชวังเขตพระราชฐานชั้นในเเละท้องพระโรงพระที่นั่งตําหนักต่างๆยังไม่เปิดให้เข้าชมครับผมคนไทยอยากให้เขาเปิดให้นักท่องเที่ยวเข้าชมความสวยเเละอลังการข้างในครับ
Oh wow I am sure that is so gorgeous. Hopefully we will get to see it some day :) thanks for watching!
🇹🇭🙏🥰
🇹🇭🌞
We apologize on behalf of that tuk tuk as well for giving you a bad experience. But there are many cars that are nice. I hope you like my country. .I wish you a happy and fun lunch.
We absolutely love Thailand!! We already want to come back :) thanks for watching!
The first temple (Bo won ni ves temple) is thai monk's ex-leader temple
That is good to know! Thank you for your comment :)
For your best imagination about the palace, watch movie "Anna and the King 1999" Jody Foster version
That sounds awesome, we will watch it! Thanks for the recommendation :)
😃👍👍
Thank you so much for watching :)
💖
♥️♥️
Shoes off, shoes on, shoes off, shoes on!
HAHA exactly!
Thailand yery hot for you guys 🌞🌞🌞 But we're glad you guys like it 🙏🙏🙏
It is very hot but we are loving it!! It is such a wonderful place! Thank you so much for watching :)
I'm thai Tuk Tuk for take a picture only not for transpot. I don't like it.
You are so right! We won't be using them anymore but they still look cool! Thanks for your comment :)
As Thai, Tuk-tuk driver mostly worse. I myself have never called for service
That is good to know! Thanks for sharing :)
เมืองไทยยังมีที่เที่ยวอีกเยอะครับขอบคุณที่มาเยือนครับ
There really is so much to see here! We love it :)
6:57 Huh interesting to know that they charge tourist that much for grand palace entrance
Yeah it is! Thanks for watching :)
Did you see thai performance? It’s include in the ticket of the grand palace
We didn’t unfortunately!! I am sure it is amazing though!
Im thai but i don't use tuk tuk
Tuk tuk very expensive for thai too 😅 i travel in Bangkok with MRT ,BTS ,Taxi miter only
That is good to know!! Thank you for watching :)
@@JacobandJennyTravel ❤️❤️❤️
Tuk tuk is the worst but you can trust guide 😊just let them tell you the story all you need to know ❤
That is true!! Thanks for watching friend ☺️
So what was the name of the first temple you visited?
I don't remember but it was right next to Kay Coffee in Bangkok :)
Thank you so much for watching 🙌🏼☺️
What time you went to visited grand palace before?, let me know because i wanna go there 🙏
It is open until 3pm! We went around 12:30! :)
This is far from Scandinavia, also in a figurative sense. There is a lot of noise and pollution everywhere in Thailand. I've been there and I'm never going back.
Hahaha it is very far from Scandinavian. Hopefully we will be back in Scandinavia in the summer for the midnight sun :) thank you for watching!
👍🤗👍🇫🇮🇫🇮
Thanks for watching Petri🙌🏼☺️
Did u see the " Emerald Buddha "?
Yes we did! It was so amazing!
What was the name of the first temple?
Wat Bowon Niwet Wihan :)
จากคลิปวิดิโอซึ่งถ่ายทำได้ดีและสวยงามแล้ว คุณน่าจะสนใจในงานศิลปพอควร ซึ่งจะมีอีกหลายสถานที่ให้คุณค้นหา นอกจากกรุงเทพแล้วทางภาคเหนือก็มีอีกหลายแห่งที่น่าค้นหา ลองศึกษาหรือสอบถามดู ผมมั่นใจว่าคุณจะชอบ เที่ยวให้สนุกและเดินทางปลอดภัยครับ.
Thank you so much!! We are exploring many parts of Thailand this trip and already planning to come back and visit more of the north! Thanks so much for watching :)
Most temple do not have admission fee. Only the famous traveling spot will have.
That is good to know! Thanks for the information :)
Some tuk tuk drivers are so bad. Some of them overcharge and lie to tourists by saying that the Grand Palace is closed. Actually, it is open every day from 8.30 a.m. till late afternoon, except during the Royal ceremonies during which it may be closed during the ceremonies.
Yes it is a good thing Jacob did some research and knew it was a scam! Thanks so much for your comment :)
Do not use TukTuk in any circumstances. They are a bunch of scammers. I reccommend you two use public transport or grab.
That is good to know! We have been using grab and it is wonderful. Thank you for your comment :)
the golden pagoda is a place to store Buddha's relic.
That is good to know :)
Try to stay away from Tuk Tuk, they are mostly scams even with local residents. Even passerby taxis around old town are scams. For other part of the town taxis are generally ok. I am local and I got piss-off by them countless of times.
Thank you so much for that information!! We appreciate it. We will only use grab and our other taxi apps! And thank you for watching :)
HAHA next time if you have situation like this tuk tuk or taxi driverman speak erratic you can report tourist police 1155. 24hrs. take his tuk tuk registration number also...police will manage him.
That is great to know! Thanks for sharing :)
Who goes to Koh Lanta to visit a temple ? 🙂
This is a video from when we were in Bangkok :)
😍😍😍😍
☺️☺️☺️
Welcome to Happyland😂😂😂
Thank you so much!! We are loving it 😍
Brother, 50 baht is impossible
Tuk Tuk Gas now so much expensive
it's mean he completely "No Income"
in city high cost of living. He not scam.
He not thing. Hope you understand 😣
Thanks for your explanation!
ขอโทษสำหรับการบริการ แท็กซี่ ตุ๊ก ตุ๊ก ที่ไม่ดี ในประเทศไทย
That’s ok, everything else was amazing ♥️ we love Thailand!
ในฐานะคนไทย ฉันรู้สึกเสียใจที่คุณเจอ tooktook ที่แย่ 😢
That is ok, everything else in Thailand was amazing :) thank you friend!
If it is possible, I would like to know the car registration plate of that tuktuk. I want to report that tuktuk driver to the police and everyone involved. This is really evidently. These people need to be harshly punished. They destroy tourism industry.
I looked at all of our footage and unfortunately we don’t have the license plate number :( thank you so much for caring though :)
Why you don't take taxi. Tuk Tuk is a scam.
We have been only taking Grabs but this time we tried a tuk tuk just for fun! :) thanks for watching!
พวกหลอกลวงแย่จริงๆ เราต้องจัดการพวกนี้ให้หมดไป ขอโทษคุณด้วยค่ะ
That is ok! It is an experience :) thanks so much for your comment!
I m Thai sorry for tricky tuk tuk this type of vehicle should be abolished. Thai people prevent from use their service. Only take a photo is OK
That is ok, you are right, it should only be for taking a picture haha!! Thank you for you comment :)
You've done it right with the shameful tuk tuk. I feel humiliated.
It’s ok ♥️ we usually use grab and it is amazing! And we are absolutely loving Thailand :) thank you for watching!!
