I have visited this big and beautiful temple complex located at a walking distance from Bangkokian museum during my holiday in Bangkok. There are 2 big temples dedicated to Lord Buddha and a big white Wat Arun like stupa in between them. Entrance to the big temples were not allowed in the afternoon and I could go inside one of the smaller temples which has a beautiful giant Buddha in reclining posture like in Wat Pho.

Had visited this Thai Buddhist temple in Bangkok a long back ago. This Buddhist temple is located in a quieter place and is lesser known to tourists. The entrance of this Buddhist temple is ornately carved and has a portrait of the present King Rama X of Thailand. This temple complex has 3 main halls. The first hall is a shrine where local devotees pray and seek blessings. The second hall is a ordination hall where Buddhist monks are ordained as Buddhist priests and contains old Murals. The third hall houses the a 19 metre long replica of the Reclining Buddha and one has to give a small donation before entering. Had to remove the footwear before entering the Halls of the temple. As it is a holy place of worship, there is a certain dress code and a code of conduct should be maintained. Dress modestly and avoid wearing sleeveless outfits. In between the Halls, there are 4 religious spires of Khmer origin. Within the complex, there is a small tree which depicts the enlightenment of Buddha and an ornate Bell tower. There is no entry fee. This Buddhist temple is an ideal place of worship for local devotees as well as people from other faith. However, it is a must visit even though, it is not on the main tourist itinerary.
