The 22 Best Things to Do in Bangkok (Updated 2025)
"Known as the Temple of the Reclining Buddha, I’m struck by its massive golden statue (15 meters tall and 46 meters long) and the fact that the temple occupies a city-block-sized site crammed with reliefs, statues, courtyards, temples, and spires; it also houses the prestigious Thai Traditional Medical and Massage School, so I always arrive early or late to avoid the typical 45-minute waits for a massage. Admission is 200 THB and massages are about 300 THB for 30 minutes; it’s open daily 8am–6:30pm." - Matthew Kepnes
