Wat Arun Ratchawararam | Bangkok

The Great Prang of Wat Arun is considered the most magnificent and outstanding art, built by skilled craftsmen. The prang is decorated with glazed tiles and Benjarong porcelain imported from China, which have beautiful patterns that are ancient and rare. It has been continuously restored until the reign of King Rama V. The area around the Great Prang of Wat Arun consists of 4 small prangs in 4 directions. Inside, there is a statue of Indra riding the Erawan elephant, a glass wall, a 3-tiered base, and statues of Mara and a sword carrying the base alternately. In addition, there are 4 niches with the incarnation of Narayana. Above is the top of the prang. There is the god Phanom Narasingh to subdue the giant. For tourists who want to visit the Prang of Wat Arun, they should dress appropriately and be careful when walking because the stairs are quite high and steep, and some parts are quite narrow.

🙏🙏🙏 Wat Arun Ratchawararam or as we call it, Wat Chaeng is an ancient temple that has been around since the Ayutthaya period. It was originally called Wat Makok Nok and is one of the most important temples in Bangkok. During the reign of King Taksin the Great, the capital was moved from Ayutthaya to Thonburi and he ordered Wat Chaeng to be a temple within the royal palace. At that time, it was also the place where the Emerald Buddha, which was brought from Vientiane, was enshrined. 📸📸📸 Don't miss it if you are a religious person who loves taking pictures. It is very beautiful. #WatArunRatchawararamWoramahawihan #BeautifulTemplesInBangkok #MakeMeritAndWorshipBuddha #VisitTheTempleAndMakeMerit #BeautifulTemplesInThailand #Bangkok #VisitBangkok #PlacesToVisitNearBangkok #ReviewBangkok #Thonburi #TakeBeautifulPhotos
