Sure, you can shoot with your phone! Sharing classic spots for shooting the Wat Suthat Big Buddha

On this vacation to Bangkok, the main task of citywalk for a few days is to shoot the new landmark Wat Suthat Big Buddha. Here are some classic spots that you can easily shoot with your phone! Picture 1⃣️2⃣️📍Shipyard Cafe The best check-in spot in my mind, close to the Buddha, with a scenic table, can shoot the holiday atmosphere. The only downside is that you have to pay 20 baht for the 🎫 whether you consume or not. Picture 3⃣️📍Soi Phet Kasem 15 It's actually the small road leading to the outside of the Shipyard Cafe, there is a long narrow alley, outside the alley you can shoot the Big Buddha. Picture 4⃣️📍Bangkok Yai District Office Navigate to this location, the overpass next to it is the spot. You can shoot the river, the Big Buddha and the boat, very postcard-like. The downside is that there are wires blocking part of the view (need to be removed in post-production) Also because the guardrail is high, you need to climb the guardrail to shoot! So be careful where you step. A five-fold telephoto lens on your phone can capture the view in the picture. Picture 5⃣️📍At Talat Phlu Another coffee shop, you can shoot the side of the Buddha from the rooftop on the third floor. Picture 6⃣️7⃣️📍Wat Suthat Big Buddha Just navigate to Wat Suthat Big Buddha, the picture on the back was taken on the rooftop of the museum behind the Big Buddha. Picture 8⃣️📍Wat Pradu Chimphli The spot seen on the way from the Big Buddha to Soi Phet Kasem 15 on foot, you can shoot the picture of Guanyin and Buddha in the same frame. 👉🏻TIPS ⭕Asked the staff, the Big Buddha can fly drones. But I checked that flying drones in Bangkok also requires registration, so if you want to take aerial shots, you should be aware of the risks. ⭕Some spots on the internet require a telephoto lens (like that classic spot with the car flow and the Buddha in the sunset, which requires more than 300mm) It's not necessary for non-professionals to go. ⭕The Big Buddha will light up after dark, so going to shoot before dusk is an excellent choice.
