Turtle Tales: Love & Tranquility in heart of Bangkok!
My visit to the tranquil Wat Prayurawongsawat Worawihan offered an extraordinary experience of feeding the gentle turtles that call this sacred place their home. Stepping into the temple's serene environment, I felt an immediate sense of calm envelop me. The beautiful architecture, rich history, and the soothing sound of water all contributed to the ambience of this special haven.
As I approached the pond, I was greeted by a multitude of turtles basking in the sun, leisurely swimming, or resting on the banks. Purchasing turtle food from the temple—delicious carrots and meatballs—I relished the opportunity to connect with these fascinating creatures. With each morsel I offered, I felt a sense of compassion and reverence for the life that thrived in this spiritual sanctuary.
Reflecting on my time at Wat Prayurawongsawat Worawihan, I am reminded of the unique bond shared between humans and animals, and the profound impact that simple acts of kindness can have on our hearts.

19th century temple in the middle of the city
#celebratewithtrip this temple is not as known as other ones on this side of the river. Yet, this beautiful temple located by the river Chao Phraya and you are able to spot this big white pagoda while you’re on the cruise. at night it’s illuminated looks extremely sacred. it located very close to the memorial bridge of Bangkok, and the area is quite big you’re able to walk along the pagoda in this circular outer layer. the moment I arrived in this place, I could’ve shift my focus from this magnificent pagoda. there are also some monks were preparing for the candlelight ceremony during the river festival in Bangkok

Incredible Temple on the Riverside
#celebratewithtrip
Welcome to this incredible Temple on the Riverside. This temple is very easy to reach by bus or boat since it is strategically located next to the biggest ricer in Bangkok. There are many activities to do.
This year this Temple is part of the destination for the Bangkok Riverside Festival that goes on for 4 days during the days of the Lantern Festival.
This stop is the interchange location between the destination in the north and the ones in the south.
There are many shops where you can get a lot of savory and sweet snacks most of them traditional thai desserts. I definitely recommend #tripblazers

Wat Prayurawongsawat Worawihan
The main chedi of Wat Prayurawongsawat Worawihan has gained international fame by winning the Award of Excellence in the 2013 Asia-Pacific Cultural Heritage Conservation Awards. It truly deserves the award. The white chedi is striking, and the interior is uniquely beautiful. You have to stoop to enter, and though the inside is small, it feels incredibly grand.
