With its beautiful beaches and cosmopolitan cities, 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!

The temple is located just outside of Bangkok, and the trip seems well worth it.
. Anyway it's time for Thailand. This awesome dragon building can be found not far from Bangkok, it's free, with no tourism whatsoever and on top of the outside looks, you can walk all the way up of this 17 stories building through the dragon, which is also a tunnel! Swipe for the full sized dragon. . . #Thailand #dragon #temple #watsamphran #Bangkok #travel #discover #hiddengems #sun #sunrise #dji #dronephotography #mavic #mavic2pro
