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.

I arrived in Phuket in 1994 and have never left... After travelling through 40+ countries and working with Club Med and Expedia, I launched Phuket 101 in 2011 to share what I've explored, discovered and learned. Everything here comes from personal experience, with my own photography and videos from across Thailand.View Author posts
