This is found at the Grand Palace and is quite large but you won't be spending much time looking at it as there is so much more to see around. More

This miniature of Angkor Wat was reproduced in the reign of King Rama IV of Thailand following the original style of Angkor Wat , one of the seven wonders of the world, in Siem Reap, Cambodia. This is to show people of Thailand who visit the Emerald Buddha temple how the Khmer ruins look like. More

This model is located on the side of the Emerald Buddha temple, which in itself is located in the middle of the Grand Palace, and is not a site in itself, but rather viewed when walking to the Emerald Buddha temple which is thehighlight of the grand palace visit. On the way to the temple you will see it. There... More

As everyone has said, this is a model of the famous Cambodian temple complex. While the attention to detail is amazing and it's well worth spending a few minutes admiring if you are already in the Royal Palace compound, a model remains a model and it certainly wouldn't justify a visit on its own - especially at 400 baht entrance...

I can only compare the mini replica of Angkor Wat to that of the real one I have seen in photographs, but the attention to detail was absolutely stunning and was amazed at the replica, which is hidden behind the stairs leading to one of the temples near the entry of the Grand Palace / Wat Phra Kaew complex.

It's a shame that you can't get a view of it from above. Very cool that it was built in the first place. More

If you are into models of things then this would suit you, but its a bit like having a model of a 747 or actually flying in one, they just don't compare. More

If you have been to Angkor then you will appreciate the detail in the model. It is located in the royal palace but is not the sole reason to go there as it can be viewed in a minute or so. More
