Temple on a hill opposite Fort Mahakan, distinguished by its steps offering a magnificent view of the city.

The temple is located in front of the Mahakan fort, the last one that remains with that of Phra Sumen. Rama II had planned the construction of a gigantic chedi of which only the hill remains the testimony. Rama V in his retinue built a more modest chedi which was enlarged to accommodate a relic of Buddha given, according to legend, by the English governor of India to King Rama V in 1899. The temple is worth the visit for the 318 steps that offer a magnificent view of the city.

temple un peu excentré, située sur une petite colline. On y accède par une série de marche. Jolie vue depuis le sommet. Quelques édifices religieux également situé autour du temple.

Temple agréable situé en hauteur non prisé des touristes avec au sommet une vue panoramique sur Bangkok. Les 344 marches sont faciles à monter.

Petit temple qui est idéal pour avoir une vue sur la ville de Bangkok ! Nombreuses marches pour y accéder mais le petits paliers où l'on sonne les cloches, nous facilitent la montée !

Petit temple, surtout intéressant pour sa position, au sommet d'une petite montagne artificielle. Possibilité d'acheter à boire ou une glace au sommet.
