#Where to travel this summer Wat Pak Nam is a third-class royal temple, common type, built since the middle Ayutthaya period (between 2031-2172 B.E.) located in the Bangkok plain, which is part of the Chao Phraya River delta. It is located on the banks of Khlong Luang or Khlong Bangkok Yai, which was the original Chao Phraya River before the canal was dug in front of Wat Arun Ratchawararam Ratchaworamahawihan and became the Chao Phraya River today. Phra Phuttha Dhammakaya Thepmongkol is 69 meters high and is a large Buddha statue in the meditation posture. It was built according to the vision of Luang Por Sod, who saw the shape of this Buddha statue while he was meditating. The Buddha statue is made of large copper and is as high as a 20-story building. It enshrines the relics of the Lord Buddha and enshrined them in the top of Phra Phuttha Dhammakaya Thepmongkol. It was built to offer as a tribute to the Buddha, the Dhamma, and the Sangha, to honor the institutions of the nation, religion, and the monarchy, and to honor the grace of Luang Por Sod. #Wat Pak Nam Phasi Charoen #Beautiful temples around Thailand #Beautiful temples in Bangkok
