About

Wat Paknam Bhasicharoen is a historic royal temple in Bangkok, Thailand, founded in the 17th century during the Ayutthaya period. It is famous for the breathtaking 5th floor of its Great Pagoda, featuring a glowing green glass stupa and a magical, cosmic ceiling painting that resembles a glittering night sky. Another major highlight is the huge golden Buddha statue standing 69 meters tall, which has become one of Bangkok's most iconic modern landmarks.
