I Grew Up Along Bangkok's Canals — Here's How Its Rich History Connects to the Forward-thinking City

"Visitors to Thailand can still find that old way of life on a canal tour of the Thon Buri district. On a recent Sunday afternoon, I joined a group of friends on one such excursion, boarding a boat from Saphan Taksin pier. We traveled through a quiet suburban neighborhood, stopping at the Paknam Phasi Charoen Temple, a landmark known for its 20-story-tall Buddha, which towers over its surroundings." - Mai Nardone

This is one of the most impressive temples in Thailand. The scale of the Buddha will amaze you! You can spend all day here and enjoy the tranquility. The people are so nice here, perhaps I may volunteer here to help.

Definitely must-go place. Big Buddha statue can be seen from the MRT station. In the area there will also be the temple for seeing many historical information and object, including the magical light on the top floor. You can also the a talk around the garden nearby the river to enjoy the fresh air. There are also many cafe shops and other temples nearby also worth visit which will cost you whole day (enjoyable indeed).

The architecture of the pagoda is truly breathtaking, showcasing intricate details and stunning design. Its presence near the sky train makes it easily accessible for both locals and tourists alike. The pagoda's serene atmosphere offers a peaceful escape from the bustling city. Experiencing this beautiful landmark is a must-do for anyone visiting Bangkok. Furthermore, this location provides unique photo opportunities.

Beautiful from afar and even more captivating up close. This temple isn’t merely a tourist attraction, it is at the centre of a thriving community. There is so much to see here, don’t miss the incredible pagoda and its interior including a museum of collected artefacts. Be aware that this is a working temple and be respectful.

Come here to see the great golden big buddha statue and take some pictures. The main reason to come here is to sightseeing, take pictures, and pray. Nothing too tourist-y going on (fancy restaurants or attractions), so just expect to have a nice walk around the temple and enjoy the beautiful structures.

The Great Buddha was under construction when we visited, but what was revealed was pretty enough to make you feel its grandeur and beauty. In addition, you will be impressed with an impressive work of art inside the pagoda. A must-visit place when visiting Bangkok.

I was here 9 years ago when the big Buddha was not there yet and just the base building existed as well as many of the current buildings, cafes, and pavilion “roof” did not exist. It was a very peaceful place to go and the pagoda one of my favourite places to go. Now it is more like Disney Buddhaland without the admission fee and can be very crowded full of very rude self-centered instagram people, the exact opposite of that the faith is about.

Impressive and serene! The Big Golden Buddha is a breathtaking sight, made entirely of solid gold and rich in history. A peaceful place to admire Thai culture and craftsmanship.
