beautiful lost for words bro isn't this amazing like you know what something like I want to just show you as I'm showing you around like Grand Palace I just like noticed is the amount of detail they put into it looks like everything is well upap and everything's very nice like they really take care of those pil let's go up the steps and see how it is beware slippery surface please do not touch wow look at this guys look at the look at the front and the back oh I guess everyone's saying these are like half half men half bird so it's like uh half human half uh half animal and it's kind of interesting each one what I'm looking at has like a different name kin norn uh yeah this one is another one that nor Nora singha not quite sure what that means it's kind of cool lily pads wow so beautiful this entrance okay so I guess this part of the palace you can enter from sorry you go inside of it interesting I'm noticing is there are a lot of tour groups here from China cuz I just hear a lot of people speaking Mandarin Chinese wow okay this building looks like it's very crowded we'll save that for later let's walk around more of this area something that I should have brought with me is some water cuz I am really [Applause] thirsty he's telling a story to them like what's everything about over here what's up man who's this guy who's recording me who are you he's giving them like

us a gr tour this Palace I have no idea what we're looking at right now no I'm just playing guys I have an idea the Grand Palace beautiful place but like he did he did give me a i he was like dude should we have a tour guide but probably should have but I sometimes depending on the where I'm going if I don't know much about it or haven't done the research I think it's worth getting a tour guide it costs more but you do really get an in-depth uh you know thinkal that's true but I think I'm the best tour guide guys I'm just going to say oh look at this look how beautiful it is say this just give me basic information but yeah this is one of the most popular touristic sites here in Thailand has a lot of history a lot of statues here too and yeah I love these statues they have the same ones at the airport too when you're about to leave Bangkok oh I feel like I want to be dark after this baking out in the sun really I'm tanning that's why I was excited to wear my like tank and it was like okay I'm about to get some color yeah your tank [Music] top I see what's inside here all right so it's like more murals these are like some offerings too look at that statue guys sorry trash can so you some candles and some incense over here interesting please take off the shoes so if you're sitting on here guys make sure you take off your shoes okay so basically we walked through the Grand Palace that it seems like this is a major building like it's uh one of the center pieces that one in the building we first saw and now that ways towards the exit but we don't want to exit just yet we're going to go inside of the main building so that's what we're going to do right now okay so we are going to enter in this crowded building to our right and just to give you some background information about the palace just in case if you don't know uh in 1782 was when the palace was used as a residence for the king of sayam till 1925 and then after that is how you see it right now so previously the king did live here of Thailand the king of sayam cuz that was the old name of Thailand but now it just used as a as a beautiful tourist thing and I just love to see the architecture oh I think to go inside we must take off our shoes interesting take off our shoes there we go day number four wow this is so cool are we going to go inside hey what's up bro we ended up at the place yeah cuz I knew great Mayes think Alik so I knew where you wanted to go bro I think this is like the only like crowded like uh we go inside let's go inside and see how it is wow this place is so [Music] nice it's like a prayer room or something not [Music] sure walls as well all the [Music] [Music] pain [Music] yeah the steps are pretty steep yeah this place is just so beautiful all right let's explore a little bit more of the palace so basically we walked around this building we walk in this building and we walked around the area bro we got to take some nice picks wow this is really cool so these guys are painting the wall of the palace let take them a long time got the paint brushes here and different [Music] colors wow look how much detail guys they must be doing this every day around the world I mean every day of the year look at that even has this like wood plank to like be precise that is really cool so this is the last part I did not record for you guys looks like a little Tye of a shrine thing not 100% sure what it is with a lot of incense and guess people could put their candles here and then also do a prayer wow look at all these like different types of statues over here so so uh I guess this is the tour of the Grand Palace guys it's a very beautiful palace and if you want to have a nice day trip here while you're in Bangkok definitely definitely come here you won't be dissatisfied I'm loving it the only thing is just make sure you wear pants and get water with you that's something we did not do is get water and my friend seems like he's going to pass out cuz he's not doesn't have enough water bye-bye Grand Palace the exits now we're officially exiting guys what the golden palets no drones on look construction oh wow this is where we came in yeah I think this is where we came in from yeah cuz went like around and then yeah well I guess there are more parts to the Grand Palace we just went through the exits but then there's this Courtyard which I thought we came from but I guess not guess we came from an opposite end but wow look how beautiful this building looks too I don't think we're allowed to go inside of it but yeah let me go around these people hello wow yeah this part looks like it's like under construction or something we'll go like near the front area uh there probably a guard post please refrain from taking P pictures of the soldiers with the soldiers wow I already thought the Grand Palace was big and just look at this ch chakri Maha Pasar but I think once you exit that area you can't re-enter cuz those points look like they're just like exit areas but wow this grass in this place is up like pretty well kept so that was the ground Palace in a nutshell and now right over here there are a lot of vendors that are selling many different things and I'm very thirsty as well as my friend who's buying some coconut water let's go inside of 7-Eleven oh the AC oh my god it feels so nice let's see do they have any slushies I could go for a nice slush but I don't think they have a over in the 7even O come on what should we get there's Gatorade I think because we just sweat so much we're going to go for two
