Thailand Photo Spots & Travel Guide~ The stunning scenery along the way amazed me!

Thailand boasts diverse Instagram-worthy locations. Here's your photography guide: Bangkok • Grand Palace & Wat Phra Kaew: Shoot upward from the main entrance steps to capture architectural grandeur, or take side-angle shots of the spire silhouettes. Arrive early and dress modestly (shoulders/knees covered). • Wat Arun: Best during soft morning/evening light. Try low-angle shots of white pagodas from side/rear, or panoramic views from opposite pier. • Wat Paknam Phasi Charoen: "Mama Cooking" is a viral spot for alley+Buddha combo; 769 Soi Thoet Thai 26 captures boats+Buddha; Lad Ya8 overpass works great with telephoto lens. • MahaNakhon SkyBar: 78th-floor glass observatory offers night views. Happy Hour package before 6pm includes entry. Use flash + contrast filters for night shots. Chiang Mai • Tha Phae Gate: Mornings have most pigeons. Buy 20THB bird feed, wear red dresses, and burst-shoot during takeoff for dynamic shots. • Doi Suthep: Morning light enhances golden pagodas. Take cable car from bamboo forest to viewpoint for city panoramas. • Nimmanhaemin Road: Artsy cafes like Graph Cafe (industrial decor) suit minimalist outfits for Instagrammable shots. Phuket • Nai Harn Beach: Charter longtail boats from Rawai for snorkeling + crescent bay "jelly water" photos. Transparent kayaks photograph beautifully. • Mai Khao Beach: Near airport runway end. Check flight schedules to capture planes skimming overhead against beach/ocean backdrops. • The Shore at Katathani: Iconic infinity pool blends with Andaman Sea at sunset. Sunken seating offers unparalleled views. Other Regions • Ayutthaya Wat Mahathat: Tomb Raider filming location. Misty dawn shots of Buddha-in-tree roots are magical. 45° northeast angle frames ruined pagodas with crescent moons. • Sukhothai Historical Park: Bike among ancient pagodas. Sunset lotus-lighting ceremonies before seated Buddha create poetic imagery. • Chiang Rai White/Blue Temples: Day-trip with solid-color dresses. White Temple's mosaic-covered restrooms make unique photo ops.
