Bang Pa-In Palace: Classical royal style hidden in elegant souvenirs

#Bangkok Shopping Guide Bang Pa-Inn Summer Palace is about an hour's drive from Bangkok and was the former summer palace of the Thai royal family. The park combines European and Oriental architectural styles, with both classical symmetrical garden paths and palaces with stained glass and Thai eaves. Walking through it is like being in the poetic time of the 19th century. The souvenir shop in the Summer Palace is equally exquisite, focusing on souvenirs in the style of "elegance and nostalgia". I especially like the miniature architectural model series they launched, among which Bang Pa-Inn's famous Aipeng Pavilion and Guanyin Pavilion are made of handmade ceramics, with details so delicate that even the patterns on the roof tiles are not sloppy. In addition, notebooks, puzzles and porcelain teacup sets designed in royal style are also sold. The outer boxes are printed with painted pictures of the Summer Palace complex, which are very decent for gifts and personal use. The local characteristic silk scarves and court-style totem handbags are also favorite collectibles for many tourists. If you like the elegant route, the souvenirs here can be called the boutique level among Thai attractions. When you walk out of the Bang Pa-In Palace, you will have an elegant souvenir in your hands, and it seems that you have also taken away a dream about the Thai royal years.
