The best thing to see in Bangkok. Its big its awesome and have everything you want to see in Thailand! Wat Arun looks like some things in movies and want to see in reality. The one minus is a lot of people but you know its only 200bhats. I'm still impress with this Temple🔥Just great!

The Temple of the Sunset is a must-visit. It’s very beautiful and worth exploring to learn about its history. Originally, it was the first thing ships would see in the distance to know they had arrived in Bangkok. If you have time, go to the opposite riverbank and watch it light up at sunset—it’s a stunning sight.

Wat Arun Ratchawararam Ratchaworamahawihan is a temple with a long history and is a must-see for tourists. The prang of Wat Arun Ratchawararam Ratchaworamahawihan is the temple's most striking Thai architectural feature. It consists of a 67-meter-high main prang and four smaller secondary prangs surrounding the four sides. The original prang was built during the Ayutthaya period and was further extended by King Phutthaloetla Naphalai and King Nangklao. It is adorned with exquisite glazed tiles and Benjarong bowls. This prang bears symbols related to the Traibhumi concept.
