#templeofthegoldenbuddha #bangkok enshrine a 5,500 kg of solid gold buddha image.
A place you definitely must see while in bangkok ,inspiring and beautiful it is also a spiritual experience: and has a beautiful panoramic view over bangkok from the top
I have visited Wat Traimit during my 2008 or 2009 trip to Bangkok. I must go dig up old pictures of this beautiful temple.
The temple that houses the world's largest massive gold seated Buddha measuring nearly 3 metres in height and weighing 5.5 tons.
In this land of many Buddhas, it is definitely worth a visit to the Temple of the Golden Buddha, in Bangkok's Chinatown, to see the gigantic golden Buddha here. Constructed in the 13th century, this Buddha is 10 feet high, weighs 5 1/2 tons and is made of solid gold. This is a sacred place, so your arms and legs must be covered. Be prepared to remove your shoes.
