Amazing Temple in Bangkok Wat Traimit! Dont Miss It!

The full name of Wat Traimit is Wat Traimit Withayaram Worawihan. It is also known as The Temple of the Golden Buddha because it houses the world's largest solid gold Buddha statue. Wat Traimit is a royal and sacred temple in Bangkok's Chinatown area. I visited Wat Traimit as part of my Bangkok sightseeing tour and I was amazed by the beauty and history of the Golden Buddha statue. The statue is truly impressive and shines brightly in the temple. I learned that the statue was hidden under plaster for centuries and was only discovered by accident in 1955. The museum in the temple also offers interesting information about the Thai-Chinese heritage and the origin of the statue. I recommend Wat Traimit to anyone who wants to see a unique and valuable piece of Buddhist art. Wat Traimit is open every day from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM. You can visit the temple to see the Golden Buddha statue, as well as the museum that displays its history and the Thai-Chinese heritage. You need to pay a small fee to enter the temple and the museum. There is a dress code for visiting Wat Traimit, as well as other temples in Bangkok. You should wear modest clothing that covers your shoulders and knees. You can also use a scarf or a wrap to cover yourself if needed. Sandals are acceptable, but you may have to leave them by the door when entering the temple. You can also buy cheap clothing from the shops near the temple if you don't have anything appropriate. Please respect the dress code and the religious customs of the temple.🙏 Don't Miss This Amazing Temple ☺️☺️☺️#wecreate #temple #bangkok #awesomepic #thailand #cafe #travel
