Bangkok: Hidden Temples Tour with Transfers

  • Thailand
  • • Religious & Spiritual
  • • Duration 5 hour

Description

Explore a quieter side of Bangkok on a guided journey through some of the city's lesser-known Buddhist temples. Instead of concentrating on the Grand Palace, Wat Pho and Wat Arun, this experience takes travellers through historic neighbourhoods where beautiful temples, local shrines and traditional Buddhist architecture are woven into everyday city life.

Begin at Wat Ratchanatdaram, famous for its distinctive Loha Prasat, a multi-tiered architectural structure with numerous metal spires. Continue to Wat Suthat, a historic royal temple known for its large Buddha image, detailed murals and the Giant Swing outside its grounds.

The tour can then continue to Wat Ratchabophit, where elaborate ceramic decoration and a distinctive architectural combination provide a contrast to the more familiar Bangkok temples.

Finish at Wat Saket, home to the Golden Mount, where visitors can experience a historic temple environment and, subject to access and weather conditions, enjoy elevated views over the surrounding Old City.

The experience combines temple architecture, Buddhist traditions, local history and walking through Bangkok's older streets.
