4 h
Über diese Aktivität
Get ready to discover majestic Thai culture by touring the two most renowned Buddha temples in Bangkok. Visit the Marble Temple (Wat Benchamabophit), a creative fusion of European & Thai architecture, and the Golden Buddha (Wat Traimit), the most precious Buddha idol in the world. Bangkok is called the city of temples for a reason. The city is home to around 1,000 extraordinary Buddhist temples. The two most mysterious and historic temples are the Marble Temple and the Golden Buddha Temple. They are famous for their architectural designs and history. Construction of the Marble temple began in 1899 at the order of King Chulalongkorn (King Rama V), after he completed his palace nearby. The temple's name literally means the temple of the fifth king. It features a grand display of marble pillars, a marble courtyard and two large marble singhas or the lions guarding the entrance. The Golden Temple has an interesting history as the lavish gold idol was once covered and forgotten. Later while being moved, the plaster around the statue cracked, once again revealing the golden idol. It is 5.5 ton solid gold piece, valued at approximately $250 million. This is a can't miss for photographers and history buffs. The temple tour is suitable all ages. You can choose to travel in a private vehicle by upgrading the tour with a private transfer at an additional cost. Additionally, the Grand Palace can be added to this tour. Add upgrades on the tour confirmation page.
