Wat Traimit – Stop by to pay respects to the Great Golden Buddha

Anyone visiting Yaowarat who wants to add a little merit before starting to eat must not miss this place 👉 Wat Traimit Withayaram Worawihan
A beautiful, peaceful temple that’s easy to get to, located right next to the Hua Lamphong MRT station within walking distance.

The highlight here is the “Phra Phuttha Maha Suwan Patimakon,” the largest golden Buddha statue in the world! ✨ It has a 6 sok wide lap and is 9 sok tall, made of pure gold, weighing over 5 tons 😲 Everyone who sees it is amazed, and it has a very interesting history. If you love old stories, you’ll definitely like it.

Besides paying respects, there’s also an exhibition zone showcasing the history of the Buddha statue and the history of the Chinese community in Yaowarat. It’s a comfortable walk, air-conditioned, and every photo angle is beautiful. The peaceful atmosphere is very calming 🧘‍♀️

It’s perfect for those who want to travel slowly, pay respects, and find peace in the middle of Bangkok, or you can stop by before lining up for food in Yaowarat as well 🍜
