Inside the walls
Inside the walls: dress, buy the foreign ticket, the Emerald Buddha hall, the main courts, and the textile museum only if time remains. Walk to the exit before ticket sales end at 15:30. The ticket page says daily 08:30–16:30 and 500 baht, including Wat Phra Kaew and the textile museum, one visit per site within seven days. Check the schedule for ceremonies; if it is closed, switch to Wat Pho or Museum Siam. Do not follow a stranger who says the temple moved. Sites outside the walls listed on the ticket are not scheduled here.
Outside the walls
Outside the walls: walk to Wat Pho, pay the separate 300 baht, see the soles, then decide on Museum Siam (Tuesday–Sunday 10:00–18:00, foreign adults 100 baht, closed Monday). The flower market waits for dusk. Do not spend the remaining two hours forcing Chatuchak, and do not enter a second inner court in Dusit.
