Lots of crowds, which ruins the whole experience. Detailed golden spires, buddhas and architecture. There is a dress code - we saw many tourists being turned away or had to buy shirts and long trouseā€¦ Full review by Sea98

The Grand palace is a huge area and walking to see any of it is required. Perhaps you could see if wheel chairs are available, although pushing one in the heat might be an issue.
