    Great, you met an honest taxi biker....In Bangkok, they are so greedy that I gave up to take any motorcycle or TukTuk....too greedy...
    Ohhh, what a very nice building, so well done, with high level of finishing and detail. Even the ceilings are decorated. Money is there.....
    Thanks for showing, sure, I will visit there.

    Your efforts are for real.You always put effort in discovering and showing new stuff rather than showing the regular malls and touristic stuff.This really helps in connecting with the city we love dearly❤️ better .
    Good luck and thank you for showing these amazing places.👍🏻

    Wow, I was born and raised in Thonburi especially in this area and moved a little bit further away.Not so many tourists visit this part of bangkok that much,they usually visit phranakhon's side of bangkok.You really inspire me to explore my city much more,both sides of bangkok.I recommend
    ' Phutthamonthon' kind of buddhist park .It's famous in Thonburi and near the border to Nakhonprathom.

    My wife and I have visited this temple complex a couple of times, once prior to the giant Buddha and once during its construction. Will have to get over there now that it is complete. Next time! The inside of the main temple is eerie and ethereal. Great day out exploring the temple, klongs, markets & neighborhoods. Great work...Safe travels!

    You may not know that on the Wat Paknam's Jediya there is a golden image of the late Abbott of this temple which was casted in pure solid gold(95%) weigh 1 ton (1,000 kilogram) on the third or fourth floor. Make sure next visit stop by and pay homage to the late venerable Loung Por Wat Paknam and you will be amazed of how beautiful is the image of the Loung Por. Happy New year 2564 of the Buddhist era.

    21:40 You see the ancient Hor-tri (หอไตร) which is absolutely beautiful. If you turn right there that is Wat Apsornsawan วัดอัปสรสวรรค์, one of my favorite temple in Bangkok. Inside the Ubosot, there are 28 buddha images. Make sure to go before 3PM as the lady who takes care of the house will close the gate. Also behind there is around 100 years Wat Apsorn school. The architecture is stunning and very rare to see nowadays. It is really a secret hidden place even for locals.

    either last year or the year before, my tour guide took me to that temple. it was a very interesting temple in the sense that the layout was not like the regular temples. and if you were to use their restroom, you'll have to take off your shoes and use the slippers provided by them to go into the restrooms. when I tried my usual google map tagging and facebook upload, I had a bit of difficulty finding it. That led me to believe that this temple doesn't have a lot of foreign tourist traffic..... Thank you for the update on this place.

    For regular Thai people theft is a srict no-no (I myself have forgotten my phone or keys on a scooter quite few times and everything has always been intact). It’s not like it never happens but mostly theft is a concern only at heavily touristy places or where you come acrosss other foreigners, especially fellow travellers.

    At 21.50 you were entering another Wat called Wat Apsornsawan but you did not reach inside the temple, you rather turn left to cross the bridge to another Wat. The temple that you skipped is one of the oldest in this area. The temple was renovated by King Rama III. The Buddha images in the Church were stunning and cannot see these on a regular basis. In this Video, you visited three Wats by walking:1 Wat Paknam, 2 Wat Apsornsawan, and 3 (after crossing the bridge) Wat Khun Chan. Next time, come back to Wat Apsornsawan and explore more around Wutthagart Station of BTS, Wat Ratorot, Wat Nang Nong, Wat Nang, and many more. Most of the temples there was build more than three hundred years and renovated around two hundred years ago also. There are old communities located alongside the canal and the train's track.
