★★★★★a month agoI recently visited Wat Traimit and was truly amazed by the world’s largest solid gold Buddha statue. The Golden Buddha is magnificent, with its impressive size, beauty, and historical significance. The temple itself is well-maintained and offers a peaceful atmosphere for worship and reflection. Seeing this extraordinary masterpiece in person was an unforgettable experience and gave me a deeper appreciation for Thailand’s rich cultural and religious heritage. I highly recommend visiting Wat Traimit to admire the incredible Golden Buddha and learn about its fascinating history.

★★★★★2 months agoGolden Buddha Wat Traimit, Bangkok, Thailand. A Temple that houses the world's largest Buddha made of solid gold weighing 5.5 tons. The Golden Buddha was shiny and impressive. Must view place in Bangkok. Though ticket price is 100 baht but worth to visit. The Golden Buddha shows a lot of solid gold in one place, but the surrounding buildings are equally fascinating. The atmosphere inside is calm.
