The Grand Palace Bangkok + Eating Japanese Wagyu in Thailand
Вставка
- Опубліковано 5 вер 2024
- After 23 years of visiting Thailand, today i finally made it to the Grand Palace, former residence of the Thai Kings and home of the Emerald Buddha.
The obvious way to get to The Grand Palace is by taxi but if you want to avoid being stuck in Bangkok traffic and would like to be a little more adventurous the catch a train on the BTS SIlom line to Saphan Taksin station, from here follow the signs to the Chao Phraya tourist boat, look for the lady holding the sign that says "Orange Flag" and she will point you in the right direction. Once you are on the express boat, get off at Tha Chang pier, from here it is only a short walk to the entrance of The Grand Palace.

There is a dress code that is strictly enforced. For males, no shorts and no singlets. Females must wear a dress below the knees and no bare shoulders.
Opening hours of The Grand Palace are 8:30 AM to 3:30 PM.
The entrance fee for The Grand palace is 500 Baht.
The Grand Palace was built in 1782 and for 150 years was the home of Thai Kings. The Thai Royal family has not lived here since 1925, however it is still used for Royal celebrations and Royal ceremonies. On this day there was a Royal ceremony and visitors were not admitted entrance after 12:00 PM.
The main attraction at The Grand Palace for me was Wat Phra Kaew, The Temple of the Emerald Buddha. No video or photos are permitted inside Wat Phra Kaew.
On my way home i visited a friend who lives in Bangkok, before eating Japanese Restaurant named Wagyu Yakiniku Marukya Ito which is located on Sukhumvit Soi 23. I have always wanted to try Japanese Wagyu and this was the perfect time to do so. "Wagyu" is a famous breed of cattle from Japan, famous for it's marbling. The word "Yakiniku" refers to Japanese BBQ. I did not have 1 piece of steak, instead i tried 6 different cuts of Wagyu, including Wagyu tongue. The beef i ate here was some of the best i have tasted. For my side dish i ordered "Kimchi", a Korean dish of salted and fermented vegetables.

This is your best video so far. Some times living in Thailand’s can make you go a bit crazy. We normally know what that is, but when your hit with some thing spiritual, it kind of brings balance
Wow! Amazing video love the nod to spirituality - the way you shot it too was great with all the palace detail. 10/10 on my scale 😀
Thank you DF for show us aspiring vloggers how its done!
That was a very respectful start to this vlog at the palace, it certainly got my full attention, it’s as if I was there... nice one mate!!
One day Thailand will be my home, and I of course above all have absolute respect for the Thai people and their culture, and you’ve demonstrated exactly the way to show that respect in this vlog, very impressive!!
5 Star video all around. Being a part-time resident/frequent visitor to Thailand I could relate to the feelings you had in the Grand Palace. Wat Po (and Doi Suthep up in CM) bring that out too. Then the wagyu restaurant was drool-worthy. I'd have to float a loan from relatives back home to go there more than a couple times a month though. #KeepEmRollin
Thanks DF, excellent vid!
Excellent vid DF 👍 loved the palace and the temple and that wagyu beef looked delicious keep living the dream for the rest of us
i have given this a thumbs up even though i am a veggie ,mainly for the grand temple ,i have been there myself and would definitely recommend this for anyone going to bangkok ,so beautiful
My condolences.

Awe inspiring temple, awe inspiring food. And the McGregor quote for good measure. 😎
Very informative vid... emotional narrative as well. Its interesting seeing the softer side of DF....now let's get back to raw, unfiltered filth!! Yaaaa
great DF vid again... l went there myself just after King Bhumibol Adulyadej died... very quiet and many people all still in mourning but worth the visit... your vid is just the way i remembered it and it was 500 baht back then as well to get in.. thai people get in free.
theres been a few 10/10 on the DF food scale in the past couple vids. A rare flower.
Yes MY, the food in Bangkok has been IMMENSE haha
Okay. Well this is a respectful and quality video
Good job DF. I appreciate the video, good stuff👍
DF I have to ask why didn’t you go with the Kobe Beef I have heard that it was the best of Japanese Beef. I am curious because I want to try the best beef from Japan. I will go to San Francisco as I don’t live far from it. Thank You and take care of yourself
What date did you visited? I was in the Grand Palace with my father and sister back in November
Is there less tourists this high season compering to last year?
When i visited the Grand Palace in 2004,it cost 50 Baht!!!
Next time I will be trying this meal out
Enjoyed this this one!
Remember that just because DF likes it doesn’t mean you’ll like it, but I’ll try anything once.👍😁😎
Great vid fella. 1 month and i hit thailand for me first trip. Cant wait.
Grand Palace beautiful thanks for the vid
Another great video mate! However, last week in Hua hin, I walked past a restaurant ,near Soi Bintabaht that advertised Australian Black Angus Rib eye steak. 2,100 THB. Ouch!
It's not blood it's myoglobin very common mistake
mmm tongue, the only food that tastes you back....I eat tongue(lengua) tacos in the states all the time. tastes like pot roast.
Dont know how you managing the prices. $40 a night hotel i booked last year is now 75$ a night, and $160 a night over the next 6 weeks!
thai airways used to be 750 return now its 1000
They invented a new time clock, open to 25.00 🤔😄😄

Thailand is a right wing conservative culture unlike Australia which is a far leftist culture. So if you ever voted for a leftist politician then you voted against the thing that you are in love with in Thailand. So you actually are what is wrong with in your own country.
I gave you a like but Thailand is definitely not that right wing if you get into the nuance. What kind of right wing culture tolerates the LGBTQ movement and the sex industry?!?!?
Vietnam is more culturally conservative than Thailand. Thailand is like the #1 country in the world for cheating spouses and Vietnam has the lowest divorce rate in the world and teaches children in school that homosexuality is a disease. Vietnam has become much more desirable than Thailand.
@@skillfuldabest LGBTQ isnt a movement in thailand....with the religion everyone is tolerated....do you understand? Men are still men no matter what they do to themselves....they are treated in society as lessers but everyone is tolerated.
tasty beef
Hard to go back to normal steak , after Wagyu thats the problem😋
Sorry for nothing vegans 😂😂
Mate you are sparing no cost with your dining experiences these days. The subs must be bringing in a few bucks.
Bar Girls Can't Eat Emerald Buddhas.
500 baht = 25 bucks, jesus christ.... no wonder I havent bothered going back
