Wat Saket and the Golden Mount

วัดสระเกศราชวรมหาวิหาร

Old-town rooftops from a hilltop reached by bells

Address

Chakraphatdi Phong Road area, Pom Prap

A gentle spiral path climbs the artificial hill at Wat Saket to a view over old Bangkok’s low rooftops and temple spires. Bells and small shrines break up the walk, making it easy to take slowly. Late afternoon is kinder on a hot day.
