Wat Prayurawongsawat Worawihan, known in short as Wat Prayun is a 19th century Buddhist temple complex, located near the Memorial Bridge (Thonburi side) in Bangkok, Thailand. 😊📸🙏🇹🇭💛 Greetings and have a fantastic day all. ~~~~ The temple was built during the reign of King Rama III of the Thai Rattanakosin Kingdom. He was the king of Siam from 1824–1851. Rama III was the elder brother of Mongkut who succeeded him as King Rama IV in 1851. Rama IV became famous beyond Thailand, after being portrayed in The King and I film and stage productions. Somdet Chao Phraya Borom Maha Prayurawongse (Tish Bunnag) dedicated his own coffee estate to build a royal temple. Hence the name "Prayurawongsawat" in his honour. Wat Prayurawongsawat Worawihan is a "second class level" of royal temples. . . #asiaphotography #asianwanderlust #asiatour #asiatravel #asiatravels #asiatrip #südostasien #thisisasia #travelinasia #tv_asia #visitseasia #destinationasia #fever_asia #loveasia #travelbangkok #bangkokcityvibes #bangkokspirit #bangkokcity #visitbangkok #webangkok #unseenthailand #thailand_ig #thailandgram #thailandinsider #thailandismagic #wheninthailand #discoverthailand #thailandphotography #beautifulthailand #lostinthailand (at Wat Prayurawongsawat Worawihan) https://www.instagram.com/p/CpScEWOMmT4/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
