Visiting Wat Trimitr (Golden Buddha Temple) was an unforgettable experience. The temple houses the world-famous Golden Buddha, a solid-gold statue that is both breathtaking and historically fascinating. This remarkable Buddha image weighs approximately 5.5 tons (5,500 kg) and stands about 3 meters tall with a beautifully proportioned width. Its long history is equally impressive—the statue was once covered in plaster for centuries to disguise it from invading armies, and its true golden nature was only rediscovered in the 1950s after an accidental drop revealed the gold beneath. The atmosphere at the temple is peaceful and well-organized, making it easy for visitors to explore and learn about its cultural significance. Whether you're interested in Thai history, Buddhist art, or simply want to see one of Bangkok’s most iconic landmarks, Wat Trimitr is absolutely worth a visit. Highly recommended for anyone traveling to Bangkok!
