The Grand Palace in Bangkok, Thailand is the country's most celebrated landmark and former official residence of the Thai Kings, built in 1782 when Bangkok became the capital. Covering over 218,400 square metres, the palace complex is a breathtaking showcase of Thai royal architecture — gleaming gilded spires, intricate mosaics, and elaborately painted murals. At its heart stands Wat Phra Kaew, the Temple of the Emerald Buddha — the most sacred Buddhist temple in Thailand, housing a revered jadite Buddha statue draped in gold and precious stones. This immersive 360° virtual tour lets you explore the Grand Palace courtyards, the Chakri Maha Prasat throne hall, the Dusit Maha Prasat pavilion, and the glittering temple complex of Wat Phra Kaew — all from your browser, completely free.
