A Buddhist temple in Bangkok, Thailand. Very quite and calm place. Monks were at their seats attending people visiting the place. This was one of the beautiful temple I saw in Thailand. The architecture, location, and view was superb. I spent around 30-35 minutes here, a must visit place in Bangkok, Thailand.
