I had a wonderful time. It's best to come in the morning, before noon, to avoid the crowds; the museum is really peaceful. However, the 15-minute walk between the BTS station (Chang Erawan) and the museum is a bit unpleasant: you have to walk past a garbage dump that smells really bad.

Viewing the city by water is a fun and unique way to enjoy the sights. And having a nice buffet dinner is an added bonus. I was on the sunset cruise and enjoyed the sunset towards the end of the cruise.

Very interesting full overview of the siam / Thailand kingdom. We love the kart tour and the variety of the pagoda with many colors. However please avoid the elephants ride it is a shame and poor animal condition.

All in all very impressive and beautiful. Very nice and helpful staff. Lots of clean toilets. Very large grounds. We had a golf cart, which was a great advantage. You should go there early in the morning or in the afternoon to get the right light for taking photos. There is a restaurant and several small shops/eateries. It was a super nice experience. The only drawback was the handling of the elephants, even the small ones are already chained. Staff there only out for money. Extra entrance fee 250 Bath. That could be better.

It's funny that there are cars you can use to explore the locations. I think it's convenient. The locations themselves are beautiful. If I were you, I'd add a phone number so I could contact you on WhatsApp. It would be convenient for tourists, since not everyone has local numbers.
