after going to the grand palace, go to the reclining buddha, its a gigantic buddha that almost fills up an entire temple...the surrounding gardens and smaller temples are also beautiful...you can also exchange your money for coins to fillup small cans while walking inside the temple...this is their custom for goodluck...

we opted for an additional tour of safari world (whole day), worth 1300 baht per person, which includes safari world open zoo, marine shows and buffet lunch...we got to see various animals at their natural habitat while inside a coaster, we got to see feeding time of lions...the buffet lunch was ok, with thai food and delicacies...but themarine shows are just ok comparable to the shows in the philippines...you can save a lot of money and time if you skip the marine shows...you can save half the price! but the safari world open tour is worth the money!

your entrance coupon to vimanmek mansion is free once you buy the coupon of the grand palance. the teak mansion is a must see tourist spot..the whole mansion is made of teak wood so you have to remove your shoes upon entering. The mansion houses all the memorabilia given to all kings, queens and royal families of Thailand from different countries. There's a guided tour everyday and cultural shows in the afternoon. There's also a souvenir shop at the groundfloor of the museum.
