    This place is a must visit place in your Thailand temple itinerary. Visited in morning time. Entry ticket 100 Bath. This place is the only hill in Bangkok. 344 steps to the top prang (Stupa). Open at 7am to 7pm. Worth to climb this place. Nice atmosphere from the start. Peaceful vibes. Winding path with bells and pray along the way. Unique designs temple. Its not hard to climb. When you reached to the top. You will see an amazing panoramic view of the Bangkok. Beautiful golden color prang. Make sure to wear proper clothing and respect Thai people and culture. This place will be a memorable place.

    A peaceful and beautiful temple with a unique atmosphere. The golden stupa on the hill is very striking, and the cave with the standing Buddha statue feels calm and spiritual. Walking around the temple grounds, you can enjoy both the architecture and the quiet surroundings. It’s not overly crowded, so it’s a great place to visit if you want a more relaxed temple experience in Bangkok. A lovely spot for sightseeing, taking photos, and making merit. Highly recommended for anyone interested in Thai culture and temples.
