The Grand Palace is a complex of buildings in Bangkok, Thailand. Surrounded by a defensive wall of 1,900 metres in length, the Grand Palace encloses an area  of 218,400 square meters. Construction of the palace complex began in 1782, during the reign of Rama I. It served as the official residence of the king of Thailand from the 18th century to the mid-20th century. Besides royal residences, the Grand Palace houses the Chapel Royal of the Emerald Buddha, also known as Wat Phra Kaew. Another prominent part of the palace is the Chakri Mahaprasad Hall, a building in a style influenced by the Italian Renaissance.

The palace complex sits on the east bank of the Chao Phraya River. Further out from the palace's defensive wall is a canal, which was also created for defensive purposes, making the area surrounding the palace an island, known as Rattanakosin.

Over two hundred medical, dental and cosmetic procedures are available in various categories: Orthopedic procedures such as hip replacement, Birmingham hip resurfacing, artificial knee replacement, knee surgery, cosmetic procedures such as breast augmentation, face lift, rhinoplasty (nose surgery), liposuction, dental procedures such as bridges, implants, crowns, and procedures in categories such as cardiac, vascular, spinal, obesity, eye, LASIK, urology, general surgery, plastic surgery, laparoscopic surgery, weight-loss surgery, wellness and much more.

Medical Tourism is the act of traveling abroad to receive medical, dental and cosmetic care. Medical Tourism is also called as Medical Travel, Health Tourism, Health Travel and Medical Value Travel. Significantly lower costs for best practice care is usually the primary motivation although some medical tourists go abroad for immediate availability of procedures and unavailable treatments. Patients frequently take advantage of the opportunity to vacation and tour inexpensively in the country they are visiting.
