Watpo Temple is a barley tree temple in our language, meaning the barley tree when the Buddha entered the nirvana. Because there is no direct subway line from Surasak Station, I grabbed a car and moved from Grab. It was a little hot, but it was worth walking around, and most of all, unlike the forecast, it didn't rain, so I was able to move comfortably. Watpo Temple had an entrance fee and was not allowed to enter in hot pants or Na City. It can also be said to be a kind of courtesy to Buddha. As it is the first temple I have seen in Thailand, I expected to feel more of the characteristics of Thailand, but it was actually. The temple wasn't that big, but the big Buddha statue (wasang, lying statue) warmly welcomed us to this memory. This Buddha statue in the center of Watpo Temple boasts a huge length of 46M, and you can see it from the big face right on the left when you enter the entrance. The Buddha, which is said to have been created by the ancestors of the Thai king in the 1800s, exudes as much spiritual energy as a merciful yet awakened expression. After taking a few pictures with my wife and looking around the precincts, the temples that towered high (Thai Buddhist temples had a very different feeling from Korean, Chinese, and Japanese Buddhist temples. Although it is the same religion, how different it is depending on the local culture, I could feel the variety. The biggest car is that there are more stone buildings)

Tourist spot but the temple continue to serve its religious purposes. Awesome and clean place. DO NOTE: WEAR PROPER ATTIRE (long pants) Bunch of tuk tuk will be outside waiting for you. No worries about not getting any transport.

It is really a beautiful temple with a remarkable inspiring reclining Buddha that draws your spirit away from your daily routine. It is a must visit attraction in Bangkok.

5/5Outstanding

A complex of beautiful Buddhist temples with Buddha’s of various sizes including the reclining Buddha. it also has a few small museums/ information centres that give further information on the birth and techniques of Thai massage and the school for Thai massage therapists is also within this complex. But more interesting than the Buddha’s are the much smaller statues in the surrounding greenery and they are in massage poses. there’s a small shop selling much needed drinks and ice creams and the usual trinkets. and of course a fortune teller. if you’re lucky you see beautifully dressed local Thai ladies of all ages in their ‘Sunday best’. This temple/school complex is well worth the 200 Bhat entrance fees. They provide skirts and shawls for free for those entering in sleeveless tops and above knee outfits.

Lofo City is a magnificent and great Buddha in the center of Bangkok, Thailand. A tens of meters long body dug out the golden recumbent Buddha. It is one of the important gods to bless Thailand. You must see it when you go to Bangkok.
