The Grand Palace is one of the many examples of a built environment. It's a complex of buildings that's located in Bangkok, Thailand. It was built for the Kings of Siam, his court, and his loyal government from 1782 until 1925. Now, people from Thailand reside here. Unlike a single structure, the Grand Palace consists of numerous buildings, halls, pavilions around open laws, gardens and courtyards. 

One ethnic enclave seen in Thailand is Indians. There are around 400,000 people of Indian origin and around 65,000 Indian Thais have full citizenship. Most arrived in Thailand escaping their villages that were facing a drought in the 1920's. In Thailand, they made themselves merchants. 

One example of a religious sacred site is a temple located in in the centre of Bangkok known as the "Wat Phra Kaew." In English it is referred to as the "Temple of the Emerald Buddha." The most significant fact about this temple is that it houses the statue of the "Emerald Buddha." 

One example of religious architecture in Thailand is known as a "Stupa." A stupa is a mound-like or hemispherical structure containing relics that are used for meditation. Structure wise, there is no access to go inside the Stupa and in larger Stupas there may be walkways for "circumambulation" at the top of the base along with another on the ground below it. 

In Thailand, the charter group is the ethnic Thai people. More than most of the culture in Thailand stems from the ethnic Thais. One example of an influence they had on Thailand is Buddhism. Buddhism principles contributes to the traditions and beliefs of residents in Thailand. Out of the 70 million people residing in Thailand, around two-thirds are from Thai ethnic groups. 

Historically speaking, ethnic Thai people are from Bangkok, along the Central Alluvial Plain around the Chao Phraya River.  The dialects spoken here are most smilar to the traditional Thai language. This region is known for the greatest economic growth in Thailand. 

One example of sequent occupancy in Thailand is a city located in the northernmost side of Thailand containing a population of 200,000 people. This city is referred to as Chiang Rai and it's specifically located in the "Mueang Chiang District, Chiang Rai Province." In 1262 CE, Chiang Rai was established as a capital city. 

People that live in Thailand are known to be accepting  of new residents and are very welcoming. However, the only downside for the new residents is that long-term and strong relationships are hard to form.
