🌟【Travels to the Golden Buddha Temple in Bangkok｜A golden holy place that travels through time】✨

#Bangkok Itinerary When you come to Bangkok, you must visit this thousand-year-old temple that houses the "World's First Golden Buddha"! As one of the three national treasures of Thailand, Wat Traimit is famous for a 3-meter-high, 5.5-ton pure gold seated statue of Sakyamuni. This "Sukhothai Golden Buddha" has gone through 600 years and was once hidden in the mud. The brilliant momentum it exudes in the sun is absolutely shocking! The temple combines the architectural style of Chinese red walls and Thai golden roofs, with exquisite carvings everywhere. It is a great place for you to meditate and worship Buddha or take photos. 📍Practical information quick notes 🏛️ Temple name: Wat Traimit Witthayaram (Golden Buddha Temple) ⏰ Opening hours: 8:00-17:00 (open all year round) 🎫 Ticket price: 20 Thai baht (about 4 yuan) 🚇 Transportation: Take the MRT to Hua Lamphong Station and walk for 5 minutes 🌟 Must experience three highlights 1. See world-class treasures in person The moment you enter the main hall, the majestic aura of the pure gold Buddha hits you in the face! The Buddha statue sits in a solemn posture, with folds in his clothes flowing like silk. It is said that the proportions of his face perfectly match the golden ratio. The sunlight shines through the window lattices onto the gold foil, and the entire space is shrouded in warm golden light. It is recommended to visit before 10 am when the light is the best! 2. The beauty of architecture that transcends time and space The "Sam Po Kong Temple" in the temple is a fusion of southern Fujian temples and Thai spires, with red bricks and green tiles matched with golden eaves. The "Fu Lu Shou" paintings on the porch are side by side with Thai statues of gods, giving it a unique Southeast Asian mix-and-match style. The "Wall of Ten Thousand Buddhas" in the side hall is densely packed with small golden Buddhas, which are full of visual impact when taking photos. 3. Experience the local blessing ceremony Buy a bunch of flowers (about 20 baht) at the flower stall in front of the temple to offer to the Buddha, then go to the side hall to ask for a Thai fortune stick (you can ask a monk to translate), hang up a peace amulet with your wishes written on it, watch the local believers put their hands together and mutter prayers, and feel the strong atmosphere of life and the power of faith. 📌Tips for playing ✅ Clothing recommendations: Avoid shorts and off-shoulder clothing. Gauze wraps are available for you to borrow in the temple. ✅ Photography tips: Take a photo of the Buddha from the railing on the second floor of the main hall to avoid the crowds and highlight the golden statue. ✅ On the way: Close to Chinatown, you can walk to eat roast goose and sweet soup after visiting 💡Personally, I feel that compared to the bustling Jade Buddha Temple, this place has a more tranquil atmosphere that comes from the passage of time. When the sun shines on the face of the golden Buddha and the leaves outside the temple rustle, it seems as if you can hear the echo of time six hundred years ago - this is the most moving cultural temperature in Bangkok. #BangkokTravel #ThailandBuddhistTemple #GoldenBuddhaTemple #In-depthCulturalExperience
