The exterior, for instance, was built very much in the Thai architectural style, although the interior was somewhat bizarrely decorated in Western-style.<\/p>\n<p>There are also 8 stone pillars, each with a tip carved in the Thai Dhammajak shape, in order to indicate 8 directions. It was King Rama IV also apparently decided upon the temple\u2019s existing name Wat Ratchabophit Mahasimaram, which means \u2018the temple built by the king\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>This is significant in that Wat Ratchabophit Mahasimaram, was actually the last Royal Temple in Thailand to be built by the king according to the tradition of constructing the temple of his reign. It was also the temple that a significant Thai supreme patriarch resided (Somdet Phra Ariyavongsagatanana).<\/p>\n<h6>Address: 2 Fueang Nakhon Road, Phra Nakhon, Bangkok 10200<\/h6>\n<ol start=\"6\">\n<li>\n<h4>Wat Arunratchawararam (Wat Arun)<\/h4>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<div id=\"attachment_75381\" style=\"width: 1010px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/wat-arun-by-jasondgreat.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-75381\" class=\"size-full wp-image-75381\" src=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/wat-arun-by-jasondgreat.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"664\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/wat-arun-by-jasondgreat.jpg 924w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/wat-arun-by-jasondgreat-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/wat-arun-by-jasondgreat-768x510.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/wat-arun-by-jasondgreat-816x542.jpg 816w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-75381\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Image by jasonDGreat from creativecommons.org<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Wat Arun&nbsp;is possibly the contender for the top slot when it comes to being the most distinguishable and most recognisable iconic seen image out of all the temples in Thailand, and particularly Bangkok.<\/p>\n<p>It has become something of a symbolic image for the city and is undoubtedly at its illumined best around sundown. Certainly the sight of this temple can be one of the highpoints of many an evening river cruise in Bangkok. The temple is located on the Thonburi side of the Chao Phraya River, almost opposite to the Grand Palace and Wat Pho.<\/p>\n<p>Wat Arun is one of the six Royal Temples in Thailand, and in many ways the most dazzling of them all, although possibly the oldest. It stands on the riverbanks of the&nbsp;Chao Phraya River, and has a very distinct and unique shape.<\/p>\n<p>The gilded, 80-metre prang (spire) of the temple stands proud in the sky, and can be seen from a good few miles away. The prang is surrounded by four smaller towers, and the design is very much Khmer-influenced, as was much of the architecture of the days of its construction, which is estimated to be pre-17<sup>th <\/sup>century.<\/p>\n<p>Like the other ancient temple Wat Pho, Wat Arun consists of a complex that contains halls, pavilions and hundreds Buddha figures and images signifying various periods from his life.<\/p>\n<p>The temple\u2019s full name of &#8216;Wat Arun Ratchawararam Ratchawaramahawihan&#8217; is admittedly somewhat challenging for most people. So it&#8217;s often called either the shortened Wat Arun, and is otherwise known as the &#8216;Temple of the Dawn&#8217;.<\/p>\n<h6>Location:&nbsp;158 Thanon Wang Doem, Wat Arun, Khet Bangkok Yai, Bangkok 10600 (opposite Tha Thien Pier)<\/h6>\n<div id=\"disco-2064072537\" class=\"disco-amazon-box-2024 disco-entity-placement\"><div style=\"width: 100%; border: 2px solid lightgray; padding: 3% 6% 3% 3%; border-radius: 5px;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Planning a trip to Â鶹APP ?
