Wat Benchamabophit (Marble Temple)

Bangkok, Thailand

An elegant temple constructed entirely from Italian Carrara marble with a unique European-influenced Thai design.

About this place

Built during King Chulalongkorn's reign, this temple showcases 53 Buddha images from different periods and regions. The best time to visit is during the early morning alms-giving ceremony around 6 AM, when monks in bright orange robes create a striking contrast against the white marble. The temple is less crowded than other major temples but equally spectacular.
