Buddhamonthon
This is an important religious site built by the government and the people to commemorate the 2500th year of the existence of the Buddha. Accessible by Puttha-Monthon lV Road, it occupies a large area with beautiful landscape and contains many interesting structures. A huge standing Buddha image cast in bronze gold measuring 15.8 metres marks the centre of the area. It is surrounded by Four commemorative sites concerning Lord Buddha's birth, enlightenment, the first preaching sermon, and Nirvana. Other interesting places include a Buddhist museum, a hall keeping marble Pali canon and meditation halls.
Thai Human Imagery Museum
The museum houses life-like sculptures created by a group of Thai artists. These breathtaking human figures with various characteristics and the replicas of important people are displayed in many sections such as the Great Buddhist Monks, Former Kings of Chakri Dynasty, and One Side of Thai Life.
Phra Pathom Chedi
On coming toward the city, the first glimpse of the towering Phra Pathom Chedi is overpowering. lt is one of the largest pagodas in the world and in Thailand, by far the most holy of all Buddhist structures. The original pagoda was constructed more than 2,000 years ago in the stupa design of an upside down bowl shape.
Sanam Chandra Palace
This palace, located 2 kms. west of Phra Pathom Chedi, was constructed by the command of King Rama VI in the year 1907 when he was the Crown Prince. The compound occupies an area of 355 acres and houses a group of throne halls and pavilions with an elegant and unusual mixture of classical French, English Tudor and traditional Thai architecture. Most buildings are now used as government offices. The two buildings opened as attractions are Phra Tamnak Chali Mongkhon At, a Western style building with a statue of Ya-Le - the king's pet dog and Phra Tamnak Mari Ratchabanlang where King Rama VI's personal utensils, royal photographs, and writings are exhibited. Nearby a Thai-style house called Tamnak Thap Khwan once served as King Rama VI's temporary residence.

We had such a good time in Bsngkok and we will never forget these 6 hours when he showed us so many amazing things in Bangkok
It was the best we could do for our stop over
Thanks again so much

"The car was excellent and we found the driver/location well with the photo provided.
I would like to complain about the size of the vehicle though. We were 5 passengers and the driver only had space for 4 seats once he loaded the luggage in. I hadn’t realised until the luggage was loaded that this left my son without a seat and he spent the entire trip in to the city squeezed on the vehicle floor without a seatbelt.
This could have been avoided if the car had been larger or if the driver had loaded luggage better. Unfortunately the location on the road outside airport seemed to make this processed too rushed to accommodate our group comfortably and safely. " English-speaking Guide Service [Guide Fee]
