What to expect

No trip to Thailand is complete without visiting one of the most iconic site, the Temple of the Reclining Buddha (Wat Pho). The Buddha measures at 46 meters long (151 feet) and the site features a whopping 394 Buddhas that can be found spread out between four different chapels on-site.

Begin the tour at the temple's gate and you will be led through the tour with your app. Learn about the history of Wat Pho, which was believed to be founded during the 16th century and later served as The Royal Temple of King Rama I of Chakri Dynasty. Wat Pho is known as the "nation's first public university," thanks to 1,360 marble inscriptions about medical, historical, and liberal sciences places all around the temple. Learn more about the significance of its inscriptions and enjoy your time here.
