Wat Arun is a magnificent shrine along the Chao Phraya River. The
temple's pagoda soars 280 feet into the sky. Because it is decorated
with glazed ceramic pieces from top to bottom, the temple shimmers
in the sun.
Wat Arun has become a favorite among tourists. The
most breath-taking view of the temple is from the river, especially
during the sunset hours. Weather-permitted, boat taxis and tours are
conducted daily.
