I read this info at website on grand palace. Is it true we must leave our passport or credit card with them? Feel so insecure lah!
NOTE: There is a strict dress code for visiting the Grand Palace. The Temple of the Emerald Buddha is Thailand's most sacred site. Visitors must be properly dressed before being allowed entry to the temple. Men must wear long pants and shirts with sleeves -- no tank tops. If you're wearing sandals or flip-flops you must wear socks (in other words, no bare feet.) Women must be similarly modestly dressed. No see-through clothes, bare shoulders, etc. If you show up at the front gate improperly dressed, there is a booth near the entry that can provide clothes to cover you up properly. You must leave your passport or credit card as security.
FYI , u can pay 200 baht as deposit to rent the pants ther(if u're forgotten abt the dress code).....it will be refunded back once u return to themNOTE: There is a strict dress code for visiting the Grand Palace.

Hello all,
I'm going to BKK with a friend in 20-25 oct 2012 via AA. Main purpose is shopping & sight seeing. I know AA will land in Don Muang. I think Don Muang is at Sukhumvit area right? I'm looking for hotel nearby that area & near BTS. Short listed 2 hotels:
- On8 Sukhimvit
- legacy express Bangkok
As long as the hotels are near BTS then should be fine right? Are these 2 hotels ok? Any feedback?
Also, the JJ market only open in morning till afternoon on weekend? If I go around 5pm onwards, still open or not? Cos I'm scared very hot.
i stayed in Siam Swana Hotel (its a new hotel around Rm120 per night) and its just beside Asia Hotel .....very near to Ratchatewi BTS stationI'm going to BKK with a friend in 20-25 oct 2012 via AA.

the booking for the hotel fees can be cheaper im nt sure but u can enquire 1st
the reason why i recommend it's bcoz its near BTS and most importantly its NEW.....u can even walk to siam paragon from there (abt 10-15 mins only)
