#AbsolutelyFreeTrip The colorful Yak statues guard the entrance to the Grand Palace - the guardians of mythology welcome visitors. When you visit the Grand Palace, the most eye-catching feature near the entrance is the giant demon statue called "Yak (ยักษ์)". These statues are guardian deities that appear in Thai and Cambodian mythology, and are responsible for protecting the sacred place from evil spirits and evil. Standing as if guarding the gates of the palace, these Yak statues are colorful, dignified, and carefully decorated in detail. As a symbolic presence that gives a sense of traditional Buddhist art and Khmer culture, they are a popular spot where many tourists stop to take photos. #bangkok #thailandtrip
