About Wat Pho in Bangkok

Wat Pho is a Buddhist temple in Bangkok Rattanakosin Island in the Phra Nakhon district. Located along the banks of Chao Phraya River near the Tha Tien Pier, the Wat Pho temple is a regular tourist hub. Also known as the Temple of the Reclining Buddha and Wat Phra Chetuphon by locals, the temple is famed for its namesake Reclining Buddha. The fifteen meters high and forty-six-meters long Reclining Buddha adorned in golden leaves is incredibly beautiful.

Wat Pho is also famed for its exquisite Thai massages that are famous all over the world. A trip to the temple makes for an ideal day of relaxation. In fact, the Wat Pho massage is recognized as one of the leading schools of therapeutic massage in Thailand. The temple hosts a hundred and eight bronze wishing bowls into which tourists drop pennies to see their wishes come true. This money goes towards assisting the temple and all its monks.

The Wat Pho Bangkok houses three hundred and ninety-four gilded statues of Buddha meditating in the lotus pose. These statues have been collected from all over Thailand and are kept in the temple for preservation. A walk through the intricately decorated murals of Wat Pho leads up to the courtyard that is superbly decorated with Chinese statues and ninety-one stupas adorned with ceramics and colored tiles.

Wat Pho, Bangkok is an immensely appreciated landmark in itself. But it is also quite close to other places of great beauty and significance such as Wat Arun and the Grand Palace. In fact, the Grand Palace is a ten-minute walk away from the Temple of the Reclining Buddha. Getting a tour guide for 200 – 400 baht is perfectly worthwhile in a place with so many things to do and places to visit.

Gowtham's 7 days trip to Bangkok

Pattaya and Phuket: We had wonderful time in Pattaya and Phuket and a lot of memories to carry. We had good hotels and food. We explored places nearby and was able to connect well with the agents and the cab drivers. The only thing that put us off in both the places were the service partners that were chosen. We did not have a proper worth of the money paid in coral islands and phi phi islands (the agent in phi phi Island tour was rude). Not best of experience in the activities on the islands. Probably changing the partnering agencies will give a better experience. Bangkok: The first thing that put us off was the hotel. Not the one worthy of meeting 4 star hotel standards.we found cockroaches in the room. And the transfers were not on time which made us hurry up and run around in the safari world. Also, we missed major attractions and in the open zoo our cab driver did not stop near the animals where others vehicles took ample time to watch and take photos, our driver was busy over taking other vehicles and dropping us back to the hotel. Even the food organisation and the food was not at all good. Just a suggestion Since we are new to the country we won't be aware of local places please try to suggest the travellers so that they can have the best traveling experience. Overall **** for Phuket and Pattaya. *** for Bangkok.

Gowtham Nataraj Bengaluru

Haresh's 9 days trip to Bangkok

Had multiple discussions with Satyaveerji from Clipago and eventually crafted a personalised plan that included all major destinations and spots. The recommendations and flexibility was all taken care and a detailed itinerary was created. They even recorded the entire Travel plan on phone before booking was made and this talks about their sincerity in keep things Black & white. During the trip, there were few hiccups here and there, like Cab delayed, etc, but the speed at which everything was turned around was amazing. This is the first time i got a better Support after buying the service. Satyaveerji ensured that irrespective of the time of the day, his response was always immediate on whatsapp for any queries or concerns during the Trip and this helped to remain relaxed in a land where there are basic communication issues. The Hotels & rooms provided were clean. Location was spot on, with proximity to other places. The Transport was quite good. Timings were well maintained. Next day plan was shared previous night with full details to avoid any room for confusion. Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our Trip and i would give full marks to Clipago, mainly due to their planning, communication, transparency & execution.

Sagar's 9 days trip to Bangkok

The planning was perfect end flawless, the advice given by the travel agent was very helpful. The veg options on the Phi Phi island trip were very less. But rest of the trip the good was very good. I recommend Travel triabgle to understand the travelers interst and then propose destinations. I loved Krabi the most, its scenic, peaceful, the natural beauty is serene.

Sendhilcoumary's 6 days trip to Bangkok

The initial work was very well done by Mr Kunal. As I stay abroad I used disturb Kunal at odd hours...still he was very patient and helpful. They arranged the tour my requests. After arranging the tour came in executing it...it was well done by Mr Tarun. Did not have to disturb him much...as it was well executed. Kudos to the entire team of Navigatio. Thanks again.

Vamsi's 6 days trip to Bangkok

Excellent organization of the trip. Everything is well planned and went on time. There is one small problem due to communication gap during the trip, Biswajit done a very good job in resolving it quickly. Rooms were good , but can be better for 3 star.

Shruthi's 7 days trip to Bangkok

Thank you! This trip was an outstanding experience and so far the longest vacation and tour that we have ever done. It was truly 'incredible' in the content as it was our first trip to Thailand. I would personally like to thank satyaveer and his colleagues from clipago travels as they were available at all times so the trip went hassle free to us .I would love to give 5 star rating and recommend everyone to go with clipago travels..

Manas's 8 days trip to Bangkok

Hotels like 1. La castle residency - dont have choices for food in dinner and breakfast - only one type of breakfast that is poori and sbji. OPTION TO CHOOSE FOR FOODS - COULD HAVE BEEN HELPFUL. 2. Strem side cottage - has pathetic room , with wall paints falling off, bad stinky smell . Apart from room condition , other services were good We had very wonderful, pleasant couple trip .. And we strongly recommend everyone for Meghalaya trip with Andeman travels
