“Home to the world’s only metal multi-tiered Loha Prasat, Wat Ratchanaddaram is a breathtaking architectural marvel blending Thai heritage and Buddhist culture.”

Wat Ratchanaddaram is a distinguished royal temple founded during the reign of King Rama III in the early Rattanakosin era. Located on Maha Chai Road in the historic Phra Nakhon district, the temple is best known for its extraordinary Loha Prasat, a multi-tiered structure built entirely of metal, which symbolizes the 37 virtues leading to enlightenment in Buddhism.

The Loha Prasat’s unique architecture is a rare sight and a true cultural treasure, attracting visitors interested in religious history and traditional Thai craftsmanship. The temple complex also includes a beautifully decorated ordination hall (ubosot), serene courtyards, and lush gardens providing a peaceful atmosphere for meditation and reflection.

Unlike many bustling temples in Bangkok, Wat Ratchanaddaram offers a tranquil experience amidst a rich historical backdrop, making it a must-visit for tourists seeking both beauty and spirituality.
