Wat Arun

The most attractive structure is the 79 metre high pagoda, which is decorated with ceramic tiles and fragments of multicoloured porcelain. It is also called the ‘Temple of Dawn', and the most beautiful view of it is from the east side of the river at sunset.

Located on the west bank of the Chao Phraya River, the temple can be reached either by Arun Amarin Road or by boat from Tha Tien Pier, near Wat Pho.
