• Wat Saket

Located on an artificial hill on the eastern edge of the Old City, Wat Saket and its golden monumental stupa are a distinctive feature of Bangkok’s skyline. A winding stairway climb through shaded gardens, small shrines, and ancient trees up to the hill summit’s terrace. The peaceful gardens and surroundings together with the magnificent views of Bangkok’s rooftop offer relaxation and beauty. The annual Temple Fair held at Wat Saket in November is one of Bangkok’s most colorful traditional festivals, with stalls, entertainers, and candlelit processions winding up the hill.
