วัดปากน้ำภาษีเจริญ

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.

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.

The sitting Buddha was under renovation when we visited the place, but the pagoda was breathtaking! It became to my favourite sanctuary. We payed for a half-hour boat trip on the Chaopraya, which was very impressive with the sight of the big Buddha. Don't miss it!

The statue is currently under renovation, which is a pity. It's usually a beautiful sight, especially with the museum located next to the Buddha statue. The museum houses a huge collection of Buddha statues. You also need to go up several floors within the building to see relics displayed on each level, and thankfully, there's a lift available. At the top of the museum building, there's a glass stupa. From outside the stupa, you can see the entire Bangkok area, which offers a beautiful and breathtaking view of the buildings and the city. Unlike other famous tourist destinations, the temple has free entrance, which is a great bonus. The museum also offers free admission.

Beautiful and peaceful temple and the biggest Buddha. This temple is free, there are nice areas that you can walk and enjoy the art of the temple, also cats and turles and koi fish (that you can feed). There are toilets and cafes. There is a nice, tranquil park area near the temple where you can sit for a while. Please dress modestly, respect the dress code and cover shoulders and knees (women). There has been a renovation to the buddha statue, it's almost finished but the scaffolding still covers the buddhas lower part (june 19th 25). This place is easy to get to with either BTS silom line, or MRT blue line. From bts station Wutthakat about 20min walk (easy navigation 1,5km) or MRT Bang phai station 900m, 13min walk. Done both, both are good. Both have stairs across bridges.

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.

A temple which is really peaceful. The cafes inside are very good. The toilets are free and very, very clean. Better than USA and Western Europe. Unlike what some Caucasian reviewers say, it does have toilet paper and water both. Why do Europeans expect Asians to keep TP in public toilets when your own public toilets don't have water? Isn't this western entitlement and bit of racism?

It’s undergoing maintenance for 3 months according to one of the guides there. Otherwise it’s a free to roam temple with multiple prayer halls. Don’t miss the stupa behind the Buddha that has relics on the 5th floor. Other floors in the stupa contains lots of collections of Buddha statues and antique clocks/watches etc. And it’s a few minutes walk to Wat Khun Chan (the last pic in this review) so you could plan to visit both at the same time.
