Bangkok City Of Temples Tour

City Of Temples

See the largest Golden Buddha image in the world and visit Bangkok’s finest Buddhist temples


Overview

Visit some of the finest Buddhist temples of Bangkok and discover more about the Buddha in this city of temples. The magnificent Buddhist temples are an integral part of Thai culture and are a distinct feature of this modern metropolis.

Bangkok boasts of no less than three of the most distinguished Buddhist temples in the world: Wat Trimitr, with its 900-year old solid gold Buddha weighing five and a half tons and which is the largest Golden Buddha image in the world; Bangkok's oldest and largest temple Wat Po, with its huge reclining Buddha and traditional massage school; and Wat Benjamaborpitr, otherwise known as the White Marble Temple, one of the finest specimens of Thai architecture. A visit to this temple is best in the morning when monks are chanting inside the chapel.

A tour of the magnificent Buddhist temples in Bangkok can be an enriching experience as you learn more about the history of Buddha on this holiday.
