The magnificent complex of buildings including the exquisite Emerald Buddha Temple, often referred to as the 'jewel in the crown' of Bangkok, contains the finest flowering of Thai art and culture. Begun by King Rama I in 1782, it has been extensively modified and enhanced during subsequent reigns, thereby serving as a storehouse of Thai architectural and decorative style over the last two hundred years. The book also gives fascinating accounts of royal ceremonies held in the Grand Palace accompanied by a series of old photographs. This completely revised and re-photographed guide contains much additional material, including photographs of the magnificent new throne hall specially commissioned to celebrate the 60-year reign of His Majesty King Bhumiphol Adulyadej.
