A temple surrounded by dragons! The most mysterious dragon temple in Bangkok

The Dragon Temple (Wat Sampran), also known as Sampran Dragon Temple, is located about 40km west of Bangkok, Thailand. The temple has a total of 17 floors and is wrapped by a huge hollow blue dragon, which looks very domineering and mysterious. It is reported that the history of the temple's construction is still a mystery, and some records indicate that the temple only accepts 108 monks, and many devout people come to worship every day. I found that there are many female monks here, and although the dragon temple is very domineering, it seems that only ladies can enter for a visit. As I was about to take off my shoes to go in, a male monk ran over and told me: Only women to go in. ⭕️Exploration Guide: 🐉Location: Wat Sampran Dragon Temple, Khlong Mai, Sam Phran District, Nakhon Pathom, Thailand. 🐉Transportation: 🚌To get there: Take the BTS to the last stop, Bangwa Station, and exit towards gates 3-4. There is a staircase near gate 4 that leads down to the main road. After descending the first set of stairs, turn left to another staircase that takes you down to the main road below. Cross the overpass diagonally to the opposite side and walk towards the main road until you see a gas station. Continue forward to find the Bus station, then take the yellow air-conditioned bus number 84 (not the red one). If unsure, ask the subway station staff. Show a picture of the Dragon Temple to the ticket seller on the bus and ask her to remind you to get off. The fare is 24 Thai Baht, and the drop-off point is opposite BENYAPHAT SCHOOL, with the Dragon Temple behind the school. The trip is less crowded and the bus doesn't stop much, taking about 48 minutes. 🚌To return: Take bus number 84 from the bus stop on the left side of the Dragon Temple entrance back to Bangwa subway station. The return trip is busier and can take over an hour due to traffic. ⭕️Exploration Story: The temple is particularly quiet, very suitable for meditation and purifying the mind. That day, many female monks dressed in white came to worship, and there were almost no tourists. The female monks were very happy to see me. One of the female monks told me the best angle for taking photos and even took me to a small bamboo grove to photograph another guardian elephant 🐘. The combined shot of the elephant and the dragon was too stunning. Another good spot for photos is the building with the golden Buddha statue; just take off your shoes to go upstairs. Although there are signs at the temple indicating dress requirements for men and women, a male monk stopped me and said that only ladies are allowed to enter for a visit. ⭕️TIPS: 🔘The best spot to capture the entire view of the Dragon Temple is on the right side of the school in front of the temple, down Sam Phran 5 alley. 🔘There is a roadside restaurant between the alley and the school that serves authentic suburban cuisine that is delicious end～The Dragon Temple is full of mystery and its magnificent splendor is awe-inspiring. When visiting this quiet place of Buddha's meditation, please come quietly and leave quietly...
