Loha Prasat
This video of Loha Prasat takes you to one of Bangkok’s most unique and overlooked temples. Located within the Wat Ratchanatdaram complex, Loha Prasat, or the “Metal Castle,” is a multi-tiered structure with 37 metal spires, representing the 37 virtues of enlightenment in Buddhism.
Built in the 19th century, its architectural style is inspired by ancient structures from India and Sri Lanka. Visitors can explore its different levels, which feature meditation halls, quiet corridors, and a spiral staircase leading to a viewing platform with a peaceful view over Bangkok’s old town.
