City Pillar Shrine is one of numerous Buddhist worship places in Bangkok. It is not a temple but, as its name says, a shrine, and as such popular among the local people. City Pillar Shrine is not at all worthless even from the tourist point of view, so if you happen to be somewhere near the shrine and not too busy, take your moment for a visit.
Must-visit!

Bangkok City Pillar Shrine 🛕🇹🇭
#songkran2024
It is said that the first and most important urban pillar in Thailand was in Bangkok, which was erected by Phra Buddha Yodfa Chulaloke, the first king of the Chakri dynasty, in 1782. On the auspicious day and time of April 21, June 21, 1978, under the guidance of the king's astronomer, the wooden stake was driven underground.
The government ordered in 1992 that every provincial capital in Thailand should have a pillar shrine, but there are still some provinces that do not have one.
Rumors have it that some people were worshipped and even buried alive under the city pillars to become guardians

Bangkok City Pillar Shine : free for all
Open everyday from 6am free of charge. A nice visiting spot with Ebglish and Thai signs. Sitting on steps in the main Shrine hall watching view of the Grand Palace and visitors, Thais and foreigners alike helped colling down from a hot afternoon.

Bangkok City Pillars Shrine
The City Pillar Shrine. According to an old Thai Tradition, a city pillar had to be built upon the establishment of a new city. King Rama I had the Bangkok city pillar erected near the Temple of the Emerald Buddha on Sunday, 21 April, 1782, with the city’s horoscope inside. The original pillar was made of cassia wood known as Chaiyaphruek, measuring 75 cm. in diameter and 27 cm. high. In the reign of King Rama IV, the old dilapidated pillar was replaced by a new one made of the same kind of wood, measuring 270 cm. high and standing on a base of 175 cm. wide, sheltered by a Prang-shaped shrine as it appears today. The shrine also houses images of protective deities including Thepharak, Chaopho Ho Klong, Phra Suea Mueang, Phra Song Mueang, Chaopho Chetakhup and Phra Kan Chai Si.

Wat Lak Muang
passed the National Pillar Temple on the way to the Thai Ministry of Defence. Although the temple is not big, the significance is still very important. The pillars in the temple represent the gods who protect Bangkok and attract many people to pray. When the time came, the main entrance was locked. We went in from the side door, and the security guard did not stop us, so it should be feasible. Next to the Thai Ministry of Defence, we don't want to worry about anything.
Wangjiatian Square Sanam Luang
is being repaired when it comes to Wangjiatian Square, so there is no way to enter it, only to look outside. It is like a huge playground. The Thai royal family will hold some important celebrations and events here. Usually open to the Thai people for opportunities and rest and entertainment. Just beside the Grand Palace, you can visit the Grand Palace.

Opposite the splendid Grand Palace in Thailand, there is a highly contrasting Bangkok national pillar temple. The plain appearance is like a fresh and refined woman, and people can't help but be curious. There is no need for tickets here. Every holiday, there are citizens to pray, and the incense continues. In the south of the Grand Palace, there is the largest reclining Buddha temple in Thailand. There is a reclining Buddha with a length of 46 meters and a height of 15 meters. There is also a "Buddha kitten" in the temple. There is no excitement in the Grand Palace, but a bit more tranquility. After a leisurely afternoon, basking in the sun and walking in the temple, admiring the reclining Buddha, there is indeed a kind of refined and comfortable.
