Basking in the Buddha's light, a travel shoot at Wat Arun
Wat Arun is located in the center of Bangkok and is one of Thailand's most important Buddhist temples. People often dress in traditional Thai costumes for photo shoots in the temple's front plaza, while inside, worshippers pay their respects to the Buddha. Even outside of peak tourist season, the temple is bustling with activity. Under the warm early spring sun, renting Thai costumes from local model shops, one can step into this city of religion, shimmering with stained glass, in search of photographic inspiration. The colorful fabrics, surrounded by Buddha statues, make for delightful photo effects. Ascending the sloped steps to the food offering hall, one is enveloped by the sounds of chanting and prayers among the visitors. Reaching the main hall, which is both secular and sacred, towering and majestic, with its glittering gold, the temple transforms into a mirage-like spectacle through the lens. The vivid Thai costumes, set against the ancient charm of Wat Arun, serve as the perfect props for travel photography. When the sunlight bathes this land, life is filled with sanctity and joy.
Honestly, it is THE BEST TEMPLE, where you can watch sunset 🌇 😍 It's so pretty at night 🌙 You can take boat 🚢 taxis around that place or just use metro~ boats cost around 16Baht to one way, which is really affordable and great
Wat Arun is a stunning temple in Bangkok with intricate details and colorful decorations. Climbing its steep steps was challenging but worth it for the incredible views. The peaceful atmosphere and beautiful traditional Thai architecture make it a must-visit. It’s best to go in the morning or late afternoon for great photos, and remember to dress respectfully since it’s a sacred site. Highly recommended for its history, beauty, and cultural significance!Business Hours: 8am - 6pm daily
would definitely recommend visiting both during the day and at night . worth every moment
The scenery is spectacular, you can punch in, all angles are beautiful

Very Unique Temple, The details are passionate. I’m Hope everyone come to Thailand you need to visit there for feel in Thai Culture. Wat Arun not only temple but it important place of Thai people #WatArun #BKK #Thailand
One of the best experiences in Bangkok. really recommended to rent local dress so you can take unbelievable and fun pictures. of course it will be very crowded, but it is really amazing place to visit, especially for European, Americans or western people, because the temple and sculptures are unique.
One of the most famous temple hopping in Thailand. Price of ticket is worth. But low mapping or directions. We go with boat and cannot find cheap place for rent outfit. Then we rent outfit with twice price inside than outside. You need bring umbrella cause very hot at noon or you can go morning after opening. Great moment.
