Amazing Grand Palace


For my holiday last week, my family and I went to Bangkok, Thailand.  I went to many amazing places. One of them is the Grand Palace. We took a taxi from our hotel. The traffic wasn't that bad, but it took us about half hour to go there. 

The first time I saw the palace, it was so big and majestic. They have big pictures of The King everywhere. From our taxi, we walked towards the entrance of the palace. At first I thought we are going to only see the palace from outside and that's it, but I was wrong. Inside the palace, there are many temples. One of the temples has the emerald Buddha in it! It was really beautiful! 

The walls are decorated with paintings of folktales and they added special effects in the painting to make it look like it is 3d. Sadly, we aren't allowed to take a photo of the buddha. Outside of the room of the buddha, the walls is decorated by colorful glass! It is like a mosaic and its really pretty. Out there, there are people who is walking around. I thought they were just walking, but it turns out that they were praying! It was a really amazing experience.
