Default Favourite Bangkok temples

hey guys,

During our trip to Bangkok Thailand we want to explore as many temples as possible. I wanted to get some reactions and ask you all which Bangkok temples are your favorite?

Hi there,

I think the Reclining Buddha temple is one of the best in Bangkok, and it is the type of place that has to be seen to be believed. The Reclining temple features soaring beautifully engraved statues and the Reclining Buddha itself.

The temple is open every day from 8 am to 5 pm, though it closes for lunch for one hour each day, and you only have to pay a small entrance fee to enter.
