Wat Arun – The temple of Dawn Video

Wat Arun

This video of Wat Arun takes you to one of Bangkok’s most iconic and visually striking temples. Also known as the Temple of Dawn, Wat Arun stands on the west bank of the Chao Phraya River, with its towering central prang decorated in colourful porcelain and seashells, reflecting the sunlight beautifully.

Visitors can climb the steep steps of the central prang for a panoramic view of the river and Bangkok’s skyline. The temple is especially stunning at sunrise and sunset, and at night, it is illuminated, creating one of the most breathtaking sights in the city.
