World's Largest Solid Gold Buddha @Wat Traimit | Bangkok, Thailand Travel
Вставка
- Опубліковано 5 жов 2024
- A relatively modest temple at the entrance of Bangkok's Chinatown is home to the world's largest solid gold Buddha image. Made of 18 karat gold, this Buddha image is over 3 meters in height and weighs over 5.5 tons.
The value of the Golden Buddha? $250 million USD.
Of course there's more to see at this temple than just a giant solid gold Buddha image. There's an interesting exhibition about the Golden Buddha and its constructions as well as the engaging Bangkok Chinatown Heritage Centre.
Check out what this temple has to offer!

Absolutely fabulous!
How does one make a buddha that big? I want to make one out of a cheaper metal maybe copper or bismuth if I can find the right molds.
There’s are nine keys that unlock the image into 9 pieces for ease of transport and construction. The late abbot destroyed the keys as a symbolic gesture that the image will not be moved again. This is significant because the image has been in a Thai capital city since Sukhothai, and it has only been moved because of war.
hello what is your recommended duration of stay in this temple if i would be able to explore everything in it without being in hurry?
Hi! About 2 hours would be a safe estimate.
