4.562 Reviews287 people have played this quest
Explore one of Bangkok's most storied neighbourhoods: Yaowarat, the city's historic Chinatown. Follow a path through lesser-walked alleys, taking in the colours, smells and layered history of a district shaped by centuries of Thai-Chinese life.
Visit Wat Traimit and its extraordinary solid-gold Buddha, step inside ornate Chinese temples, and discover local markets where traders have worked the same streets for generations. Along the way, taste a bitter-sweet herbal tea at a century-old shop, sip Chaozhou coffee brewed to a secret recipe, and browse the gold shops that have made Yaowarat Road famous across Southeast Asia.

Your trusted advisor, Sorcerer Pongpam, has told you the amulet must be retrieved from the future. With his help you travel through time to the 2020s.

You are set to find it. Your father's freedom, and the kingdom's future, depends on you.
