Whether it's because of their cultural significance, architectural beauty or long history, temples usually feature on the itineraries of many travelers. Wat Kalayanamitr Varamahavihara is one religious site you can't miss.

Wat Kanlayanamit is an interesting place kick off your day in Bangkok Riverside. This place of worship comes recommended by fellow travelers, but it's not the only spot to see here. Pencil in time for other sights like Grand Palace, Wat Arun, and Temple of the Emerald Buddha to really enjoy what's on offer in the area.

4.5/5(1,029 reviews)

The “Temple of the Reclining Buddha” is the largest temple in the country and has more Buddha statues than any other Thai temple.

Reclining Buddha

You can spend an afternoon browsing the exhibits at Reclining Buddha during your travels in Bangkok. Wander the Chinatown and riverfront in this vibrant area.

There is a small railway station located at Wongwian Yai railway station. The map is showing the BTS, but it's located just off the BTS station. For 9 THB you can take an hour ride on a commuter train out to the Thai countryside. We were the only foreigners on the train and it ends in a large street market. The train ride is the fun part - you ride through villages just outside of Bangkok - an interesting alternative to the city.

Wongwian Yai Market

You can find the perfect gifts to bring home at Wongwian Yai Market during your visit to Bangkok. Stroll along the riverfront in this romantic area, or check out its top-notch restaurants.
