The Grand Palace served as the royal residence for the Kings of Thailand during the Rattanakosin period, spanning from the reign of King Rama I (King Buddha Yodfa Chulaloke the Great) to King Rama V (King Chulalongkorn). Situated in the Phra Borom Maha Ratchawang Subdistrict of Phra Nakhon District in Bangkok, this historic palace, though no longer the residence of the monarchy, remains a vital site for significant royal ceremonies held annually. Today, the Grand Palace stands as Thailand's most visited and beloved tourist attraction.

The Emerald Buddha, a revered national treasure, is meticulously carved from a block of jasper.

It is believed to be the craftsmanship of northern Thailand, dating back to the 15th century.

The Bang Luang Canal Community is a historic neighborhood located near the Bang Phai BTS station, nestled along the Bangkok Yai Canal. This canal, once a crucial waterway, branches off from the Chao Phraya River near Wichai Prasit Fort and extends to the Mon Canal, opposite the mouth of the Chak Phra Canal. A key attraction in the community is the 'Artist's House, Bang Luang Canal.' This unique structure is a two-story wooden L-shaped building in the Manila style, constructed around an ancient twelve-angled chedi. The chedi is thought to be one of the four that delineate the boundaries of a nearby temple.

Wat Paknam Phasi Charoen, located in Thonburi and surrounded by canals including Bangkok Yai, Khlong Dan, Khlong Phasi Charoen, and smaller waterways, is an ancient temple dating back to the Ayutthaya period. During the reign of King Rama VI, the temple fell into significant disrepair. In response, the Sangha appointed Phra Mongkol Thepmuni (Sodh Candasaro), also known as "Luang Pu Sodh," who was then at Wat Pho, to lead Wat Paknam Phasi Charoen in 1916. Since then, the temple has become a vital spiritual center for Buddhists. Beyond its monastic areas, the temple boasts notable architecture and attractions, such as the Phra Maha Chedi Maha Ratchamongkol, the Tripitaka Hall, garden relaxation areas, riverside zones, and spots for feeding birds and fish.
