Marble temple

The Bangkok Marble Temple is active and open to the public every day. Its architecture combines the classical Thai style and the European 19th century. Built in the late 19th and early 20th century. The name was derived from the walls of Carrara marble. Windows with colored glass, they present stories from Thai mythology. Inside the Marble Temple, tourists will be able to see a copy of the statue of Buddha – Phra Buddha Shinarat. The temple of Rami V was built, which for several years was a novice of a Buddhist monastery nearby. He loved this place so much that it was here that he ordered the temple to be built. In a special canal live sacred turtles and catfish. They are revered as sacred animals and believed to bring good luck. The ancient clock is preserved in the form of drums. Religious festivals and processions with candles are often held on the territory of the temple. You can take bus 70 to the intersection near the statue of Rama.
