🌅 Give alms to monks on the bridge of merit, welcome the Sukhothai dawn at Wat Trapang Thong.

If you visit the old city of Sukhothai once, one of the activities that you should not miss is giving alms in the morning At “Saphan Bun”, Wat Trapang Thong, a place filled with the scent of culture and faith Saphan Bun is a long wooden bridge across a pond. The atmosphere is shady, surrounded by large trees and the reflection of a pagoda in the middle of the water. People, both locals and tourists, will line up to give alms since early morning. Some people wear Thai costumes, some wear local sarongs. Adding a retro feel to the atmosphere, making it look even more sacred and beautiful. Monks will walk in a line across the bridge to receive alms peacefully. The sound of bells faintly goes with the sound of rippling water. It makes you feel deeply peaceful. Giving alms here is not just a merit-making activity, but it is also a way to “stop time” in the morning. Experience the beauty of the culture, way of life And the heart of the people who still preserve their Thai roots beautifully 📍Location: Wat Trapang Thong is located in the old city of Sukhothai, near Sukhothai Historical Park 🕕 Recommended time: 6:00 - 7:00 a.m. (It is recommended to come from dawn to capture the beautiful atmosphere) The monks will start collecting alms at around 6:20 p.m. It is recommended to come before the time. 🛍️ For alms, if anyone did not prepare anything, you can buy them in front of the bridge. #Get a discount without relying on luck #Review Sukhothai
