This is
the Grand Palace that is located in Bangkok, Thailand. In Thailand there
is still a monarchy and everybody has great respect towards their king.
They show this in the huge amount of gold used in the roofing and
decorations of the buildings. There are elaborate patterns entwined with
gold as well as statues made completely of gold. Parts of it are open to the
public and it is a huge tourist attraction. It is truly a way to take in
the culture of Thailand by seeing the asian temple-like shapes of the
buildings as well as taking in the history that comes with the palace.
It is almost surreal to be walking with so much gold around!
