  • Temple/Remains

The Wat Arun is known as earliest place to see the morning shines in this area. The meaning of Arun is dawn. The sunrise seen from here is beautiful.

The temple is famous not only location, but also design is different from other temples in Bangkok.
After the fall of Ayuthaya, King Taksin ceremoniously clinched control here on the site of a local shrine and established a royal palace and a temple to house the Emerald Buddha. The temple was renamed after the Indian god of dawn (Aruna) and in honour of the literal and symbolic founding of a new Ayuthaya.
Don't miss the great viewpoints!
