I can`t how many times I said "WOW" in front of my laptop screen in Germany . Definitely worth a visit
CORRECT INFORMATION The easiest, the cheapest and the fastest way to reach Wat Paknam from the centre (Sukhumvit) is to take the MRT (blue line metro) and get off at the "Bang Phai" station and then walk for 5 minutes through the Phet Kasem 19 Alley.
I’ve seen other KZreadrs video featuring this temple but they didn’t capture the serenity and beauty of the scenery quite like you did. I was hesitant about visiting previously but now I definitely will.

The quality and footage of this video is epic. Very vibrant, and covered in depth showing some buts we've not seen before. We're doing a boat trip with hidden bangkok amd this is where we will stop (maybe around sunset)?- looking forward to this even more now. Thanks for sharing.

I went there with my friend last week. There were no other tourists around because we were there really early like 7 or 8 am, can't remember exactly. Because we took the night bus from Koh Samui to Bangkok and arrived pretty early at 5 am. So we had some time to kill. It's a beautiful Buddha, really impressive.
Love your videos. They make me want to visit

We were in Thailand early this month and we took the Long Boat tour. The view of the big Buddha from the front side and the backside was magical as our boat slowly paddled through the Chao Phraya River. Absolutely stunning!
