Wat Paknam: Temple With a 92-Meter-Tall Buddha
Originally known as Wat Paknam Bhasicharoen, Wat Paknam is a Buddhist temple in Bangkok Thailand, at the Chao Phraya River. Fittingly, its name quite literally means “the temple at the mouth of the river.” The temple has a long history starting from the 1600s but the most interesting fact about it is the newly-unveiled Buddha statue which is 92 meters tall. While this makes the statue one of the tallest Buddha statues in the world, it also has given a lot of popularity to the temple and the surrounding area.
