The city boasts some of the country's most visited historical venues such as the Grand Palace, Wat Arun, various monuments and shopping malls. Bangkok's most spectacular sights are located on the same compound: the Grand Palace and Wat Phra Keo, the Temple of the Emerald Buddha. The rooflines and spires are extravagant, ornamented richly and this is only one compound away from Bangkok's Chinatown. Other sights include the National Museum (a great introduction to the county's history and artifacts), the Red Cross Snake Farm (to watch venomous snakes being milked) and the Weekend Market near Chatuchak Park.
