Wat Arun at Sunset: A Glowing Masterpiece in Bangkok!

#watphobangkok My visit to Wat Arun, the "Temple of Dawn," was a highlight of my Bangkok trip. Though named for the sunrise, sunset bathed its intricate porcelain mosaics in golden light, creating a breathtaking sight. Climbing the steep steps was worth it—the panoramic view of the Chao Phraya River was stunning. The detailed Khmer-style spires and Buddha statues left me in awe of Thailand’s craftsmanship. Nearby, street vendors sold refreshing coconut ice cream, adding to the experience. Wat Arun is a must-see, blending history, beauty, and culture perfectly. Don’t miss this radiant gem! 🌅✨
