The temple where the golden Buddha (Phra Maha Mondop) is the most imposing Buddha in the world with its 5 tons. This Buddha was discovered by chance in 1953, when he was being lifted by a crane to be transferred from a storage room to the chapel. The Buddha slipped, the stucco that covered him cracked, and a magnificent golden statue from the time of Sukhothai was discovered, which the kings of Ayutthaya had thus hidden so that it would escape the lust of the Myanmars. An exhibition on the 3rd floor of the palace retraces and explains this history and the origin of the Golden Buddha.

Situé tout prés de chinatown, joli temple dont l’ascension permet d'acceder a un bouddha doré dans une petite salle. Petits vendeurs dans les rues alentour notamment de fruits.

An impressive statue and a certain fervour that makes the place pleasant. Wall paintings, although simple and repetitive, are very beautiful and still all fresh.
Entrance fee: super 40 to see the statue on the 4th floor of the temple or 140 super to visit the museum of the 2 lower floors.
