Wat Arun Ratchawararam on the banks of the Chao Phraya River✨️

#Bangkok attractions #Wat Arun Ratchawararam Ratchaworamahawihan 📞Hello Hello, I heard and answered. ✨️Wat Arun Ratchawararam was originally called Wat Makok and was renamed "Wat Chaeng" during the reign of King Taksin the Great. ✨️ After moving the capital to Thonburi, King Taksin had the idea to renovate this temple into a royal temple. ✨️ When entering the Rattanakosin period in the reign of King Rama II, a taller prang was built, which is an important symbol of Wat Arun. This prang is 82 meters high and is decorated with glazed tiles and shells, creating beautiful patterns when exposed to sunlight. ✨️ It is believed that worshiping the prang of Wat Arun will bring light to life. Thai people like to make merit at this temple to enhance their auspiciousness on New Year's Day. Open every day. Entrance fee: 200 baht for foreigners only. You can take a boat🛥 from Wat Phra Chetuphon. On Sundays, there are boats🛥 to take you to ring the bell and Wat Kalayanamit. 🎈https://maps.app.goo.gl/cpAY1Lpn2wcjH6rYA
