Take the BTS Skytrain to see the Phra Sampao Chedi.

#Travel along the electric train line Take a break on a holiday, take the BTS Skytrain and get off at Taksin Station, then exit 4, walk straight out to Charoen Krung Road, then turn right a little bit, walk less than 5 minutes and you will reach Wat Yannawa. Wat Yannawa .. Originally named "Wat Khok Khwai", it is an ancient temple since the Ayutthaya period. As for the origin of the name of Wat Khok Khwai, the area was originally a place of residence for the Thawai people and a place for trading and exchanging buffaloes (buffalo), which is the origin of the name of the temple and the community at that time. .. During the reign of King Rama III, he built a junk pagoda instead of the general stupa pagoda because "he predicted that junks would disappear in the future" because there were more and more sailing ships like the Westerners. People in the future want to see what junks look like, so they can come and see this temple. #btsTaksin #BangkokTravel #WatYannawa
