A small temple but very important is Watratchaprathitstathamasimaram, where the temple used to be a royal coffee garden. King Rama IV had the idea that according to the ancient royal tradition, there must be 3 temples in the capital: Wat Mahathat, Wat Chaburana and Wat Cha Pradit. But at that time, Rattanakosin still lacked Watratchaprathit and there was no Thammayut temple near the Grand Palace, so he used his own money to buy land and build this temple. This temple was built of marble from Italy. The royal chapel has a front and back porch, a gable made of beautifully carved wood, and the window and door arches are decorated with stucco crown-shaped patterns, making it a beautiful temple of King Rama IV.

#triptravelchina #placestovisitbangkok #watratchaprathitstathamasimaram 📞Hello Hello, I heard it and answered. Watratchaprathitstathamasimaram is a small temple, but the buildings inside the temple are very special. This temple was built by the royal initiative of King Rama IV who wanted to have a Thammayut sect temple near the palace. I missed the important opportunity to see the Phra Phichet clock because I was waiting for the monks to do their morning prayers outside the chapel. When the monks finished their prayers, they quickly closed the chapel.🤫

#thailandtrip Located in the heart of Bangkok’s Phra Nakhon District, Wat Ratchapradit Sathit Maha Simaram is a lesser-known gem that radiates serenity and refined beauty. As I entered the temple grounds, I was struck by the understated elegance of its design, a contrast to Bangkok’s more grandiose temples. Built during the reign of King Rama IV, this royal temple is a masterpiece of 19th-century Siamese architecture. The intricate details of the ordination hall immediately drew my attention. The exterior features finely carved gables and delicate floral motifs, while the interior boasts stunning murals that depict celestial themes and Buddhist teachings. The artwork reflects King Rama IV’s deep interest in astronomy and blends spiritual symbolism with a sense of cosmic wonder. The centerpiece, a golden Buddha seated in serene meditation, exudes a quiet yet commanding presence, perfectly complementing the tranquil atmosphere of the temple. Though smaller than some of Bangkok’s more famous temples, Wat Ratchapradit holds its own through its historical significance and artistic intricacy. It serves as an important royal temple, closely associated with Thai kings and royal ceremonies. Exploring the peaceful courtyard and admiring the finely crafted stupas, I felt a sense of intimacy and connection to the temple’s legacy. Wat Ratchapradit is a perfect retreat for those seeking a quieter, more contemplative experience in Bangkok. Its blend of historical depth, artistic beauty, and serene ambiance offers a unique glimpse into Thailand’s royal and spiritual heritage. It may not be as crowded or celebrated as other temples, but it’s a hidden treasure waiting to be discovered.

#tripแจกโรงแรมฟรี #เที่ยวกรุงเทพฯ #WatRatchaprathitSathimahasimaram Following the sound of the bell until reaching Wat Ratchaprathit, I was particularly interested in this temple. I researched and found out that Wat RatchaprathitSathimahasimaram is the temple of King Rama IV. This temple is not very large, but there are many interesting things to see that are very hard to find. 🌟The three-fibered Western bell, cast in England, has the abbreviation of the reign of King Rama IV in English. The current bell is new, but it was cast from the original factory. 🌟The crowned bell tower, a mix of Western and Thai architecture, has no stairs inside the tower. The bell is struck by a rope. Currently, an electric system is used to control the bell strike, which helps preserve its lifespan. 🌟The doors and windows are decorated with Japanese pearl lights by Japanese craftsmen, which is still difficult to find even in Japan. It was recently renovated with cooperation between Thailand and Japan.
