Wat Suthat Thep Wararam Ratchaworamahawihan
Wat Suthat Thep Wararam Ratchaworamahawihan is a beautiful must-visit temple in Bangkok, although there are some dress code rules such as no shorts allowed. The fees are reasonable, and the courtyard is stunning, making it worth a visit. I was unable to enter due to wearing shorts but will definitely return with proper attire next time.

Wat Phra Kaew
Sacred Gem of Bangkok
I visited the Temple of Emerald Buddha within the Grand Palace compound and was amazed by the beauty and serenity of the place. The intricate designs and ornaments inside the temple were stunning, and the peaceful atmosphere left me in awe. It was a great experience to witness people praying and singing mantras. I highly recommend visiting this magnificent temple if you are in Bangkok.

Wat Pho
Temple of the Reclining Buddha
Visiting the Temple of Reclining Buddha at 8AM allowed me to enjoy minimal crowds and capture great photos of this stunningly beautiful temple. The entry fee for foreigners is 300 THB, but it is definitely worth it for the 1-2 hours you can spend exploring the grounds and admiring the architecture. Pair your visit with a trip to the royal palace or Wat Arun for a full day of cultural exploration.

Wat Kanlayanamit Woramahawihan
Wat Kanlayanamit Woramahawihan, located at 372 Arun Amarin Road in Thon Buri, is a magnificent temple known for its unique Thai-Chinese architecture and superb riverfront location. The temple houses one of the largest Buddha images in Thailand, built by King Rama III, which is currently viewable inside an under-construction area. The temple features beautiful mural art inside and on the outdoor ceilings, and also offers convenient parking, though many tourists might find taking a boat to be a more enjoyable option.

The temple, completed in 1855, has a fascinating history, including the restoration of its stupa after it was destroyed by a thunderbolt. The on-site museum showcases amazing relics unearthed during the renovation.

Pak Khlong Talat (Flower Market)
Pak Khlong Talat is a must-visit if you're touring Bangkok. The market is bustling with life and filled with mounds of fragrant flowers that create an incredible sensory experience. I bought three dozen roses for just $20, and their fragrance lingered in my hotel room until I left. Conveniently located near Chinatown, it's open 24 hours, making it an easy stop on your itinerary.
