Unexpected beauty

Aug 2019

A stop at Wat Suwan was not planned, we walked past it on our way to another place, but what a find! Paintings on the walls dating around the year 1055 and 1072 and Monks chanting. Very special.

Amazing murals

Dec 2017 • Friends

The temple was built during the Ayuthaya period and extensively renovated by King Rama I. he also commissioned the construction of a royal crematorium, used until the Rama IV period.

During his reign, Rama III commissioned the leading artists to paint the murals. As well as the crematorium, those murals are well preserved and absolutely amazing.

To go there, best take Bts to Saphan Taksin, then use the Peninsula hotel ferry and cross the street.
