The Best Spot to Enjoy Wat Arun

Wat Arun, a landmark of Bangkok, is a beautiful temple located along the Chao Phraya River. As the evening sky begins to transform into mystical hues, the temple lights up, creating a breathtaking spectacle. The central tower of Wat Arun is so iconic that it is even featured on Thailand's 10-baht coin, making it a beloved site for Thai people. Here’s a recommendation for the best place to admire Wat Arun in all its glory. 🥂 Sala Rooftop Bar (Sala Rattanakosin Bangkok) 🥂 - Situated along the Chao Phraya River, this rooftop bar offers an unobstructed view of Wat Arun, unlike other bars that may have fences or barriers. It’s the perfect spot to capture stunning photos of the temple. The first to third floors operate as a hotel and restaurant, where couples can enjoy a romantic dinner to celebrate special occasions. While reservations are recommended for the restaurant to secure good seats, the rooftop bar operates on a walk-in basis, and seating is subject to availability. If you arrive around 4:30 PM before sunset, you’ll find it relatively quiet, and you can move to better spots as they become available. Though the prices are on the higher side, the view and ambiance make it worth the expense. Arrive a bit early to experience both the sunset and the sparkling night view!
