Wat Phra Keao, also known as The Temple of the Emerald Buddha is the most sacred of all Buddha images that can be found in Thailand. From the temple grounds, it is an easy few steps to arrive at the Grand Palace. When visiting the Emerald Buddha, be sure you have lots of time as Wat Pho, or the Temple of the Reclining Buddha is also very close and a definite stop during your travels.
