Tour of Watu Ratchanatdaram

Beautiful temple in sight of the Golden Mountain

Altitude: 3 m / 10 ft

Basically in sight of the Golden Mountain with the famous Wat Saket temple lies the lesser known but very nice temple Wat Ratchanatdaram.

Just a few hundred meters north of the famous Khao San Road, you will find the little-known yet interesting and significant Buddhist temple Wat Bowonniwet Vihara. It is significant due to the fact that two Thai kings are buried here. You can locate it from afar thanks to the large golden pagoda at the top. You can hardly come across a tourist in the temple and there is no entrance fee. The area is small, but definitely worth a visit continue reading

Cruise to Wat Arun

Trip on the Chao Phraya River

It is either possible to use only the ferry across the river or take a longer cruise and still enjoy the views of the city from the boat continue reading
