Songkran Festival in Bangkok was something I had seen online many times—but experiencing it in real life during Songkran 2023 was completely different. What looks like fun water fights on Instagram is actually a deeply cultural celebration mixed with joy, chaos, respect, and human connection. This was my first time witnessing Thailand’s New Year festival on the streets of Bangkok during the Songkran Festival Bangkok, and it left a much deeper impression than I expected.
15th April 2023 / During the Thai New Year holidays, I stayed in Bangkok to enjoy the Songkran festival. The next day I visited Chachoengsao City near Bangkok.
The vibrant atmosphere of the Songkran Festival Bangkok truly captivated me during my stay.
On Day 4 of our journey, we embarked on a half-day excursion to the illustrious Wat Arun Temple in Bangkok, Thailand, during July 2022. This iconic landmark, renowned for its stunning architecture and rich cultural significance, offered an enlightening glimpse into the country’s spiritual heritage. Our visit was marked by a profound appreciation for the intricate designs and serene ambiance that characterize this remarkable site. Overall, the experience was both enriching and memorable, contributing significantly to our understanding of Thailand’s historical and cultural landscape. In July 2022, I embarked on a half-day excursion to Wat Arun, the iconic “Temple of Dawn,” situated along the Chao Phraya River in Bangkok. Despite the sweltering heat, the temple’s intricate architecture and serene ambiance made the visit truly memorable.
Wat Arun, officially known as Wat Arun Ratchawararam Ratchawaramahawihan, is a prominent Buddhist temple located in the Bangkok Yai district. The temple’s name is derived from Aruṇa, the Hindu god representing the radiations of the rising sun. Its central prang, symbolizing Mount Meru from Hindu cosmology, is flanked by satellite prangs dedicated to Phra Phai, the wind god.
16th June 2021 / I Visited Erawan Museum in Bangkok, Thailand. It is well known for its giant three-headed elephant art display. Location near Erawan BTS station.
Museum is known for its massive 3-headed elephant sculpture, plus cultural & religious artifacts. In the heart of Bangkok’s vibrant landscape lies a hidden gem that seamlessly blends art, history, and spirituality—the Erawan Museum. My half-day trip to this architectural marvel turned out to be a journey into Thai culture and mythology, leaving me awestruck by its beauty and symbolism.
Sometimes, the busiest cities hide the calmest green spaces. On a sunny morning in Bangkok, I found myself wandering into Train Park in Bangkok — a peaceful patch of grass framed by old locomotives and calm pathways, right in the heart of the city’s Bang Sue area. The contrast between the urban sounds outside and the gentle rustle of leaves inside the park reminded me why simple places like this become favorite stops for families, joggers, and anyone seeking a break.
Train Park isn’t just about trains — it’s about taking a breath in Bangkok’s urban rhythm.
In the heart of Bangkok’s urban rhythm lies a calm spiritual retreat that many visitors overlook. On a quiet evening stroll near the city’s busy districts, I found Wat Hua Lamphong Temple — a serene Buddhist temple where the energy shifted instantly from honking traffic to gentle temple bells and peaceful prayer spaces. This temple isn’t just a religious site; it’s a moment of quiet in Bangkok’s nonstop pace, and one of my favorite places to slow down and observe how local daily life merges with spirituality.
