Welcome to Temple of the Golden Buddha (Wat Traimit) Self-Guided Walking Tour ---- Home to the world's largest gold Buddha statue, the Temple of the Golden Buddha (Wat Traimit) is a prominent stop on Bangkok’s temple trail. Measuring nine feet (three meters) tall and weighing more than five tons (4,535 kilograms), the Buddha attracts floods of visitors who come to marvel at its size and gleaming golden surface. Once hidden from invading Burmese armies by a covering of plaster, its gold cast wasn’t discovered until the 1950s. Pieces of the plaster that once formed its disguise can now be found in a display case at the onsite museum. ---- What do you get? - An iPhone / Android GPS Audio Tour Guide App and a ONE TIME TOUR PASSWORD sent on successful booking ----- Why this tour guide?
