— Opening note

Start at Wat Phra Sing as the afternoon sun hits the gold, then wander the riverside alleys toward the vivid blue walls of the Blue Temple. Pause for a long, quiet lunch at Chivit Thamma Da, where the lush gardens feel like a secret kept from the rest of the city. End your day watching the light shift over the Kok River from the bridge, the scent of incense still clinging to your clothes.
