Located in front of the Giant Swing on Bamrung Muang Road, Phra Nakhon District, Wat Suthat’s history dates back to the reign of King Rama I when the construction started. Back then, its location was considered to be the centre of Bangkok. This grand temple features refined murals, sculptures and plenty of exeptional Chinese statuary. It also houses the centuries-old Phra Sri Sakayamuni image cast in Sukhothai Period. This image is enshrined in the ordination hall which is the longest ordination hall in Thailand. People who pray at this royal monastery believe they will be blessed with charm and a good vision.
