Wat Phra Kaew (known as the Temple of the Emerald Buddha or locally as Wat Phra Sri Rattana Satsadaram) is one of the most important Buddhist temples in Thailand. Located within the grounds of the Grand Palace, the temple enshrines Phra Kaew Morakot (the Emerald Buddha), the highly revered Buddha image meticulously carved from a single block of jade.

Wat Pho is the oldest and largest temple complex in Bangkok, it houses more than 1,000 Buddha images which is more than any other temple in Thailand. Most of the images were brought over from abandoned temples in places as Ayutthaya and Sukhothai by order of King Rama I.
Wat Pho is famous for its enormous gold plated Reclining Buddha image. The image was build during the reign of King Rama III in 1832 and is 46 meters long and 15 meters high.

Wat Arun (Temple of Dawn) is one of Bangkok’s most famous temples at the west bank of the Chao Phraya River. It is famous for both Thais and foreigners due to the beauty and signature charm of its decoration.
