If you are wondering whether there are direct flights to Bangkok or not, the answer is yes.

Travel time from Kuala Lumpur to Bangkok take around two hours tops if you are taking direct flights. You will most likely arrive at one of Bangkok's major airports: Suvarnabhumi Airport (BKK) or Don Mueang International Airport (DMK).

On average (not taking into consideration during holiday seasons), you can find the flight ticket price range around MYR 500 - MYR 700 per pax.

The Grand Palace and Wat Phra Kaew are mesmerizing remnants of the past. The architecture is so complex and beautiful - even all these years, you can still feel the essence of the cultural and heritage value of the place.

The main highlight of Wat Phra Kaew is the Ubosot - an ordinant hall that houses the most sacred Buddha monument in Thailand - the Emerald Buddha.

The bai sema walls covered in golden leaf took the whole southern part of the temple, and there lies - or literally, sat, the 66 cm tall meditating Buddha made out of pure jade and golden clothes.

Need-to-know:

The Vimanmek Palace is considered the best example of gingerbread houses in Thailand. As funny as that sounds, it is very much the truth.

This formerly royal mansion is an L-shape with an octagonal end comprised of four levels designed with massive fretworks on its windows and air passages resembling a real-life gingerbread house.

Need-to-know:

Wat Arun or also known as the Temple of Dawn is the most popular temple in Thailand. It is named after the Hindu god, Aruna, and was built during the reigns of Rama II and Rama II in the early nineteenth century.

The main feature of Wat Arun is its central prang due to its architecture. It is encrusted with colourful porcelain and decorated with beautiful seashells all over it.

The temple has varied sources when it comes to its height - some say it is 66 meters, while others say it is 80 meters. Regardless, it is a huge temple with the best view of the Chao Phraya River from the top.
