The Giant Buddha was under construction the last time I was in Bangkok pre-pandemic. I wanted to see the 230 foot tall (20 story building) buddha. It is now the biggest Buddha in Thailand.
The Wat Pak Nam temple has a beautiful stupa called Phra Maha Chedi Maha Ratchamongkol and it has five floor containing a museum of Buddhist artifacts. The top floor hos the Emerald Green Pagoda. I have to admit, it was impressive to see. I felt like I had been transported to another world. The lighting and colors were amazing. Sophon did his prayers and we moved on to the next part of our tour.
