With its beautiful beaches, cosmopolitan cities, and delicious food, Thailand is a great place to take a vacation. Travelers can also revel in the country’s beautiful architecture as well.
The country boasts a beautiful Buddhist temple called Wat Samphran, or Temple of the Rising Dragon. Located in Thailand’s Samphran district, the bright pink temple also features a 17-story dragon on its facade.
The temple is 80 meters high because that was how long Buddha lived. But don’t believe our description, see for yourself!
