Phra Pathom Chedi

Phra Pathom Chedi is located inNakhon Pathom Province, 80 km west of Bangkok, Thailand. Phra Pathom Chedi was only 39 m high when first built. By 1853, the pagoda had nearly collapsed, and King Rama IV rebuilt it. The second pagoda was partially destroyed by heavy rain. It was later expanded by King Rama V, resulting in the current structure. The pagoda now consists of 3 pagodas built in different periods, one nested inside the other, a rare design in pagoda architectural art. The pagoda is 120 m high, with a 40 m spiral spire and a circular base 57 m in diameter. Viewed from a distance, the golden pagoda resembles a giant bell, looking spectacular against the backdrop of blue sky and white clouds. Inside the golden pagoda are a golden Buddha statue and a reclining Buddha, housing precious Buddha bones and relics. Additionally, the ashes of King Rama VI are interred within the pagoda. The base of the pagoda consists of two massive platforms. On the first platform where the main pagoda sits, there are two models of the "pagoda within a pagoda," introducing visitors to the history of the pagoda's two reconstructions. The platform is planted with many trees transplanted from Sri Lanka, creating a quiet environment with swaying shadows. There are 4 Buddhist halls on the second platform. The eastern hall is magnificent, housing a statue of Sakyamuni. Behind the statue, the wall features a mural of a tree, surrounded by patterns of dragon kings, hermits, and bird kings. The westernhall is the Reclining Buddha Hall. In front of the hall stands a tree that is 300–400 years old, a precious treasure of the hall. The southern and northern halls also have their own unique features. Additionally, 24 bell pavilions surround the pagoda, arranged in groups of 6 at equal intervals. Every year in mid-November of the Buddhist calendar, the Phra Pathom Chedi Festival is held on the square where the golden pagoda is located. At that time, devotees, merchants, and tourists from all over come not only to worship but also to trade goods and watch cultural performances.Nakhon Pathom · 2.5 km from downtown

Cruise Through Culture: A Must-Visit at Damnoen Saduak Floating Market!If you're in Thailand, don’t miss the magical experience of Damnoen Saduak Floating Market! This vibrant market, set on winding canals, is like stepping into a living postcard. I booked my visit through Trip.com, and everything — from hotel pickup to boat ride — was seamless and hassle-free.Gliding through the waterways, I was surrounded by friendly vendors in wooden boats, selling exotic fruits, delicious Thai snacks, handmade crafts, and more. The aroma of sizzling food and the sight of colorful produce were unforgettable. I tried the mango sticky rice and fresh coconut ice cream — both were incredible!The early morning vibe, reflections on the water, and rich cultural feel make this a photographer’s dream. Damnoen Saduak is more than a market — it’s a slice of Thai heritage that you can see, taste, and feel.#TripWithTripdotcom #ThailandVibes #FloatingMarketAdventure

Ask for the large Rahu deity to ward off bad luck and transform it into something positive. This will bring success in your career, good fortune, and prosperity. The ordination hall (ubosot) is decorated with intricate and beautiful patterns, attracting a steady stream of visitors. This temple is also a beautiful place to enjoy activities and beautiful murals.
