Trip to Wat Pho, Bangkok 🇹🇭

It was a short trip to Wat Pho, Bangkok 🇹🇭 When we visited Wat Pho, one of Bangkok’s most iconic temples, we were mesmerized by its grandeur and serene atmosphere. Known for the massive Reclining Buddha, intricate murals, and stunning chedis covered in colorful mosaics, this temple is a paradise for photography lovers 🙌 We explored in the early morning (around 8:00 AM) ☀️ when the light was soft, and the crowds were minimal, perfect for capturing the beauty of the golden Buddha and temple grounds without too many people in the frame ✨ After marveling at the 46-meter-long Reclining Buddha, we wandered around the courtyards filled with towering chedis 🙌 The Phra Maha Chedi Si Rajakarn, a group of four massive stupas decorated in green, white, yellow, and blue tiles, made for an incredible backdrop 💯 If you’re looking for a unique shot, stand at an angle where all four chedis appear together in your frame, it’s a perspective we highly recommend 🙌 Another hidden gem 💎 we explored was the temple’s inner courtyards, where rows of golden Buddha statues line the galleries 😍 The symmetry and warm golden hues create a peaceful yet dramatic effect in photos 📸 We also recommend heading to the Chinese-style rock gardens and capturing the intricate details of the guardian statues, these areas are often overlooked but offer fantastic photo opportunities 📸 📍2 Sanamchai Road, Grand Palace Subdistrict, Phra Nakhon, Bangkok 10200 If you want to capture the temple in a different light ✨ visiting in the late afternoon (around 4:00–5:00 PM) gives you beautiful golden-hour lighting 🙌 However, the morning is still our top choice for a more tranquil experience. After your visit, consider stopping by Tha Tien Pier nearby for a scenic view of the Chao Phraya River, it’s another fantastic spot for photos 📸 #watphobangkok #travel #vacation
