Bangkok, Thailand’s capital, is a sprawling metropolis known
for its ornate shrines and vibrant street life. The
boat-filled Chao Phraya River feeds its network of canals,
flowing past the Rattanakosin royal district, home to the
opulent Grand Palace and its sacred Emerald Buddha temple.
Nearby is Wat Pho with its enormous reclining Buddha and, on
the opposite shore, Wat Arun with its steep steps and
Khmer-style spire.
