Wat Paknam Phasi Charoen, Bangkok

Wat Paknam Phasi Charoen houses a large Buddha statue. After seeing many beautiful photos and reviews, I decided to visit this famous temple to pray for blessings. The road to the temple is quite narrow, especially as you get closer. There is a parking building inside the temple, but it often gets crowded, making parking difficult. From the parking area, it's a short walk to the temple grounds. There are several spots to visit, including the main hall where you can pray, the preserved body of Luang Pu Sodh, and the large Buddha statue. You can also take the elevator up the multi-story pagoda. From the pagoda, you can get a view of the large Buddha statue. However, according to reviews, you need to explore the alleys to fully appreciate the place, which might take more time. If you want to see everything, plan to spend at least half a day.
