Bangkok – A GG Day 3

(Kao Shan Road, Grand Palace, Wat Pho, Asiatique Riverfront)

About 9am
Have a breakfast at a sidewalk food stall



saw a bus u turn at a busy road~ very geng!




Our original plan is Ancient City
The ancient city is a door opening to the heritage of Thai
How to visit?
Method 1: take the BTS to Bearing station, then take taxi about 20 to 30mins
Method 2: By Bus: Take air-conditioned bus No. 511 (Pinklao-Paknam) to the end of the line. From here, take the mini-bus No. 36. It passes the entrance to the Ancient City.
Special remind: the last station u need to reach is Paknam market and then take bus 36, take bus 511 in opposite of the Panthip Mall NOT INFRONT of Panthip Mall! which is going to the Paknam direction

Why I name this as GG day?
We spend about one and half hours take the bus 511 in wrong direction!!
In the end, we take the same bus back to Kao Shan Road
Khao san road actually is a nice place to stay for tourist
But is inconvenient for those who are shopaholic
Cause it have a distance from Platinum mall, central world shopping mall
Have a nice Pad Thai at the road side


price at the board behind






After settle our lunch
We discuss again for our journey
We keep asking ppl and walk to the direction of pier



After reach the pier
It is just like a taxi boat
We paid 15 baht for the ticket
And debark at pier N9: Grand Palace








The ticket price is 500 baht
Cannot wear short pants and shirt without sleeve
But can borrow at there with 200baht deposit
When we reach there is around 3.30pm
And the place is crowded of ppl
So we choose to take the photo in front of Grand Palace and going to next station directly







































Pier N8 is Wat Pho
Ticket fee: 200baht per person
Around 5.30pm
We take boat from Pier N8 to Saphan Taksin (40baht)
Wait for the free shuttle boat at Saphan Taksin pier to Asiatique Riverfront
