Temple of the Golden Buddha (Wat Traimit) - Wat Traimit, known as the Temple of the Golden Buddha, houses the world’s largest solid gold Buddha statue, an impressive 5.5-ton figure that embodies Thailand’s rich cultural and spiritual legacy. This golden statue, seated in the meditative pose of Lord Buddha, is believed to originate from the Sukhothai period and was serendipitously uncovered in the 1950s when its plaster covering cracked during a move, revealing the gold beneath.
Beyond its breathtaking beauty, Wat Traimit provides visitors with an engaging exploration of Thai history through its on-site museum, which narrates the story of the Golden Buddha and the beginnings of Bangkok’s Chinese community. Conveniently located near Chinatown and Hua Lamphong railway station, the temple is easily accessible and offers a perfect cultural stop. With its combination of spiritual importance, historical allure, and stunning architecture, Wat Traimit enriches any Bangkok itinerary with depth and wonder. - Chinatown / Yaowarat - Bangkok’s Chinatown is one of the largest urban Chinatowns globally. It is arguably one of the best places to explore what makes it so distinctive. The main thoroughfare, Yaowarat Road, was constructed in 1891 (or 2434 in the Buddhist Era). This 2-kilometer road, often referred to as “the Dragon Road,” winds through Chinatown’s historic district.

Wat Phra Chetuphon Wimon Mangkhalaram Rajwaramahawihan - Wat Pho, also known as the Temple of the Reclining Buddha, has gained more visitors since its inclusion in UNESCO’s “Memory of the World” program. It stands as one of Bangkok’s most iconic and culturally significant landmarks, making it a must-see for anyone visiting the city. Home to the magnificent Reclining Buddha, which spans an impressive 46 meters and is adorned with gold leaf, the temple captivates with its beauty and spiritual importance.
Wat Pho is recognized as the birthplace of traditional Thai massage, and visitors can learn about this ancient healing practice in its original setting. Beyond the main chapel, the temple grounds are adorned with intricate murals, beautifully decorated stupas, tranquil courtyards, and over a thousand Buddha images—more than any other temple in Thailand. Overall, Wat Pho offers a serene and enlightening retreat that combines history, religion, wellness, and Thai artistry in one unforgettable experience. - Ananta Samakhom Throne Hall - The Ananta Samakhom Throne Hall is often referred to as “the White House” of Bangkok. This impressive structure serves as a reception hall for the Dusit Palace. Designed in the Italian Renaissance style, it is constructed from Italian white marble, featuring a large central dome and six smaller surrounding domes.
- Chitralada Palace - Chitralada Palace is commonly referred to as “the King Palace” by Thai people. It is the residence of Her Majesty Queen Sirikit in Bangkok, covering a total area of 4 square kilometers. The Chitralada Palace also hosts a dairy farm and factories established by the late King Rama IX Bhumibol Adulyadej. The palace includes research centers focused on grazing animals and agricultural products to enhance the quality of life for Thai people.

Wat Benchamabophit (The Marble Temple) - Wat Benchamabophit, also known as the Marble Temple, is one of Bangkok’s most elegant and photogenic temples. Constructed from Italian white Carrara marble and showcasing intricate Thai craftsmanship, the temple beautifully merges Western and traditional Thai architectural styles.
Visitors are often attracted to its serene courtyard and the main ordination hall, which houses a striking Buddha image in the Sukhothai style. Behind the hall, there is a gallery of over 50 Buddha images from various periods and regions, providing a quiet space for reflection and a deeper appreciation of Thailand’s Buddhist heritage. The temple is also active in daily rituals, allowing visitors to observe or even participate in authentic monastic traditions.
Located near Dusit Palace and other historical attractions, it fits seamlessly into a cultural day tour. Whether drawn by its architectural beauty, spiritual presence, or peaceful ambiance, Wat Benchamabophit is a hidden gem worth exploring.
