Marvel at Wat Arun in Thailand: Arrive Early to Save Time and Effort!

📍Wat Arun

Have you ever seen such a breathtaking ancient Thai temple? The exquisite aesthetics of the ancients are evident in every detail of the tower. ❤️

Opening Hours: 8:00am-6:00pm
Entrance Fee: 200 THB (cash only)
Before entering, a stamp will be placed on your hand, allowing you to re-enter Wat Arun throughout the day. Wat Arun is not very large; you can complete your visit and take photos in about two hours. For those interested, you can take a boat to the opposite side of the river for a panoramic view of Wat Arun. Watching Wat Arun at sunset offers a different experience.

Transportation Options:
1. Taxi or bus directly from the city
2. Take a boat from the pier at the Grand Palace
3. Take the BTS to Saphan Taksin Station, Exit 2, and transfer to a boat to N8 Pier

Clothing Rental/Photography:
There is a street outside Wat Arun full of shops renting traditional Thai clothing for photos. It costs 200 THB per hour (remember to compare prices). The overall look is very photogenic (only the clothing is provided; makeup quality may vary). Remember to arrive early! It gets crowded and hot in the afternoon. 🥲

Tips: ❤️
① Remember that temples are sacred places, so dress modestly. Pants or skirts should cover the knees!

② The Grand Palace is right across the river. It's recommended to visit the Grand Palace and Wat Pho first (the Grand Palace is quite large, so allocate enough time). Afterward, take a boat from N9 Pier at the Grand Palace to Wat Arun. Buy a 16 THB ticket at the counter for a ten-minute direct ride to Wat Arun, saving time and effort!!
