So we have recently visited the Wateron Temple which is located in Bangkok, Thailand. I visited the temple during my trip to Thailand with a couple of my friends. And we decided to visit it because it’s like a bucket list, a place that you have to visit when you visit Bangkok. And it was so worth it. The temple is so beautiful, the designs, the colors, the sculptures and the details. All of them are amazing. You cannot help but admire the sculptures and the intricate details that went into it, the amazing craftsmanship that went into it. And the temple is pretty big, the surroundings of the temples are also beautiful. We took lots of pictures there. You can also rent side dresses, traditional side dresses there to try on and take pictures in. One of our friends did that. And it was very, very, I would say very emotional to kind of see her in that dress. And it’s always nice to think yourself in the shoes of those people from those age, from that age. And to think about how their lives could have been, how amazing it would be to go back and visit those signs that you really cannot but you can try to relieve those moments by visiting this temple. The temple is situated beside the Chow Priya River of Thailand. And the river also offers a very great view. There are also a ferry service that takes you to and fro from the Water Temple. And when you take the ferry during sunset and the water is lit up with golden lights and you’re having the view, looking at it from the river, it looks really magical. And it makes the trip very much worth it.
