Wat Rakhang, formerly named Wat Bangwayai, was built during the Ayutthaya period. It was restored and appointed a royal temple by King Taksin of Thonburi, who also endorsed the revision of the tripitaka scriptures at the temple. During the reign of King Rama I, a melodious bell (‘rakhang’) was found in the temple compound, hence its name. Today, the river-side temple features striking architecture, interesting interior wall murals and atmospheric grounds.
Wat Rakhang is suitable for the entire family; adults will especially appreciate its historic value. Kids will enjoy ringing the numerous bells on display and feeding the fish.
