    "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."

    Highlights: Wat Arun is a prominent Buddhist temple located along the banks of the Chao Phraya River in Bangkok Yai District. It is one of the few temples that remain from Thailand’s Chakri dynasty. The temple’s most distinctive feature is the central Khmer-style tower. Glazed porcelain tiles and seashells cover the exterior, giving the entire complex a brilliant shine, particularly in the early morning light. For many years Wat Arun housed the famous Emerald Buddha, before it was moved to Wat Phra Kaew in 1785. As one of Bangkok’s beloved temples, this is certainly an attraction visitors won’t want to miss.

    "The night tour of the Chao Phraya River is worth a visit. The boat is clean, the service is good, listen to music, eat food, and see the scenery. It is mainly cool. It is too hot during the day and I don't want to go anywhere. It is a good choice to visit the Chao Phraya River in Bangkok at night."
