Golden Buddha temple

4,3 (35)
Tourist attraction Thep Krasatti

This is a landmark of Buddhist architecture and culture. It’s a stunningly quiet and pleasant temple with a large number of interesting small details on the facades and authentic historical illustrations inside. There are almost no people here, just friendly monks, so you can touch Thai history in almost complete solitude. The monks’ residences are also available for viewing. The entrance is free. There is parking and a toilet available. While it may not be worth making a special trip just to visit this temple, it is certainly worth stopping by if you’re on your way somewhere else.
