Wat Arun Ratchawararam Ratchawaramahawihan

When I visited the Wat Arun Ratchawaram temple, I found myself at one of the major pilgrimage sites in Bangkok, Thailand. Known for its unique beauty and outstanding artistic design, this temple is one of the most famous in the country. The temple scene was truly amazing. It draws the attention of visitors because of the main tower that rises over 70 meters high, a symbol of Bangkok. The tower is decorated with stained glass, mosaics, and exquisite bas-reliefs, adding great beauty to the temple.

As both Southeast Asian tourist destinations, why do people prefer to go to Thailand and rarely visit Vietnam? From personal experience, the tourism experiences in these two countries are really different. No input provided. Natural scenery: Thailand has extremely rich natural scenery, many of which can be remembered by everyone, such as Phuket Island, Pattaya, Bangkok, Chiang Mai, Koh Samui, Zheng Wang Temple, etc. In addition to these, small and niche tourist attractions such as Chiang Khan and Elephant Island are also very worth visiting. The tourism methods are diversified and can meet the needs of different people. Compared to that, there are relatively few well-known tourist attractions in Vietnam. Tourism environment: Vietnam started and developed its tourism industry later than Thailand, and the overall industry is not as well-developed as Thailand's, so both the infrastructure and tourism environment, including shopping places, are not as abundant as Thailand's. I have been to Thailand 6 times and Vietnam twice. Overall, Thailand's city streets are cleaner and the cultural environment is better. Thai people are also more friendly and hospitable. My most memorable experience was riding a motorcycle in Thailand alongside cars, even during rush hour, everything was orderly and there was no honking, which I found quite impressive. Consumer level: The cost of living in Thailand is lower than in Vietnam, and it is also safer. Basically, a person can spend only a few thousand yuan to travel to Thailand for a week. However, there are too many things to buy, such as local jewelry and bags, which cost only tens of yuan. I haven't seen any sky-high prices for souvenirs. Especially, many floating markets are a shopping paradise for women. Speaking of shopping paradise for women, Vietnam is even rarer. Language environment: There are many people who speak Chinese in Thailand, and learning Chinese is very common in Thailand. Relatively speaking, Chinese people will have fewer language communication barriers when they go there. But if you travel freely in Vietnam, language communication will be very difficult. Movie promotion: People love Thailand not only because of their personal experiences, but also because of the recent movie promotions that reflect the country's good environment. There are more movies that showcase this in Thailand, especially some public service advertisements that are very touching. However, Vietnam has done very little in this regard. The above are the reasons why people like to go to Thailand but not Vietnam. What do you think?

🔺Damnoen Saduak Floating Market Visiting the floating market is a must when you come to Thailand. There are many vendors on the river paddling their boats and docking on the shore. You can have fun and eat, and it's quite enjoyable to stroll around. - 🔺Wat Pho A well-known temple with a strong incense, the most famous of which is the majestic reclining Buddha. You can see monks chanting scriptures in front of the temple, helping devout believers to cleanse, very artistic. - 🔺Wat Arun Known as the Eiffel Tower of Thailand, you can see the highest spire of Wat Arun from a distance on the Chao Phraya River. The entire temple is well-arranged and inlaid with many colorful patterns, and the photos taken are magnificent. - 🔺Wat Benchamabophit A niche temple near Khao San Road, where the temple on the 5 baht coin is located. Compared with the bustling Grand Palace, it is much quieter here and you can stroll around slowly. Although the area is small, the overall is very gorgeous and exquisite. - 🔺Ancient Siam A miniature of the ancient capital of Thailand, the largest open-air museum in the world, very photogenic! · Share overseas travel strategies, follow me, let's go see the world~

A special temple in Thailand that you must not miss, no matter how you take photos, it's beautiful. After traveling for so many years, we have been to Bangkok, Thailand several times. The first time we went, we thought the place was too crowded and a bit run-down. But later on, we found out that Bangkok actually has many unique and niche attractions. A trip to Thailand should definitely not miss out on these! . Today's featured attraction is the Zheng Wang Temple, also known as "Temple of Dawn". It is nicknamed the "Eiffel Tower of Thailand" and is a memorial to King Chulalongkorn, the 41st king of Thailand and a national hero. The highest spire of the Zheng Wang Temple can be seen from far away on the Menam River. . Many palaces in Bangkok are magnificent with gold and jade, but the Zheng Wang Temple is different. Its main body is white, and it is inlaid with many small colorful patterns, which are arranged in a unique and exquisite manner, especially elegant and grand!! . Photo-taking tips: 1. The scenic area is not very large, and it only takes 10 minutes to take pictures of the important scenic spots. So entering the area at the first opening time and taking pictures of your own super blockbuster while there are no people in the scenic area. 2. If you didn't come when the door just opened, wait patiently for people to leave and take pictures when there's no one around. We also waited for over an hour to capture a photo without anyone else. 3. By using the position of the stairs and blocking the crowd with the foreground, the upward shot creates a fantastic effect. 4. Use a large aperture to shoot a specific area and blur out the people around it~ . Tips: Location: 158 Wang Doem Road, Zheng Wang Miao Ticket: 50 Thai baht. Time: 8:30-17:30 Transportation: Take the public ferry to Zhengwang Temple Pier, or take the MRT to get there. Note: Proper attire is required to enter the temple.

Wat Arun Ratchawararam Ratchawaramahawihan, commonly known as Wat Arun, is an ancient temple built during the Ayutthaya period, originally named Wat Chaeng. It attracts a large number of Thai and foreign visitors. It is a beautiful, ancient place with many spots for taking photos. For those who want to rent traditional Thai costumes for beautiful, retro-style photos, there are many rental shops in front of Wat Arun offering a variety of styles at rental prices ranging from 150-200 baht. Parking is quite limited, but you definitely won't be disappointed. Open every Monday to Friday from 8:00 to 18:00.

#familytrips2024 #vianasjourney It has been my wish for quite some time to try Thai traditional costume. It looks elegant with accessories and bring out more feminine side of it’s wearer. While I was there, it was pretty easy to find a rental shop, which also offer to do your hair. I paid 400 baht for both my costume set and hairdo. The shops also have connections with local photographers which cost ranges between 1200 to 1500 baht. But I went with few friends so we divide the cost for the photography. There’s plenty of angle and sides of Wat Arun you can pose around. Photographer will also help and give some ideas on your pose incase you are not familiar with posing. It’s definitely a sweet experience. I highly recommend this experience.

The most visited place in Thailand is Bangkok, where there are over 500 temples of various sizes. This time, dressed in traditional attire, I stepped into the 'Eiffel Tower of Thailand' known as Wat Arun, which faces the Grand Palace across the river. It was built to commemorate the 41st king of Thailand, the national hero King Taksin. • Most of the temples in Bangkok are golden, but this place is special—with a white base and colorful ceramic tiles inlaid with various shapes of decorations, complemented by tiered carvings, it's both exquisite and grand! • It only takes about ten minutes to walk through the temple—the photo spots are very obvious! I suggest preparing a wide-angle lens for panoramic shots and a medium telephoto lens for capturing the layered background of the buildings, which adds more tension. Don't blur the background too much—otherwise, you'll lose the beautiful details that it should have. • Trying on traditional clothing is definitely worth it—it shines against the details here. The only regret is that my shoes this time didn't match. It's better to wear simple shoes for photoshoots—they'll look nicer!

#thailandtrip The Bangkok temple tour was an extraordinary cultural experience. Starting at the Grand Palace and Wat Phra Kaew, the intricate architecture and historical significance were impressive. Wat Pho followed, featuring the magnificent reclining Buddha and a traditional Thai massage school. A short ferry ride took us to Wat Arun, where the colorful porcelain-decorated prang provided breathtaking views. Climbing Wat Saket, or the Golden Mount, rewarded us with panoramic city vistas and a serene atmosphere. The tour concluded at Wat Suthat, with its beautiful murals and the iconic Giant Swing. Overall, the tour was well-organized, informative, and deeply enriching, showcasing Bangkok's rich cultural heritage. ### Tips for Future Travelers - **Dress Appropriately:** Ensure your shoulders and knees are covered. Most temples provide sarongs if needed.

#bangkok Wat Arun is an iconic temple in Thailand with an imposing Khmer prang decorated with colourful bits of porcelain originally from China. The temple was named after Aruna, a Hindu God known for its radiations of the rising sun. The temple is an imposing sight on Thonburi west bank of the Chao Phraya river in Yai district. I recommend arriving before 9 am as it gets super busy afterwards. 🎟️ 100 baht + a free little water bottle 🕰️ Opens 8.30 am - 6 pm 👚Shoulders & knees should be covered. Please dress respectfully, else you’ll have to rent a Sarong at the entrance at an additional cost. ⛴️ Cross river ferry from Tha Tien Pier to Wat Arun Pier is 5 baht. Sanam Chai MRT 🚇 is closest to Tha Tien Pier. If you’re staying on the west bank of the Chao Phraya river, you can go by taxi 🚕 or tuk tuk🛺 #temples #urbanexplorer #architecture #watarun #bangkoktravel #bangkoktrip #thailandtravel #thailand

Wat Arun is considered by many as one of the most beautiful temples in Thailand. 🕌It’s almost directly opposite The Grand Palace, so it is very easy to get to. (check out my previous post for the best way! 🌊) The temple has an imposing spire over 70 metres high, beautifully decorated with tiny pieces of coloured glass and Chinese porcelain placed delicately into intricate patterns.
