Wat Bang Phli Yai Klang 53 Meter Reclining Buddha You Can Climb Inside - Samut Prakan Thailand 2024

Located on the northern bank of Khlong Samrong in Tambon Bang Phli Yai, not too far from Wat Bang Phli Yai Nai. It was constructed around 1824 and originally called Wat Klang before changing to Wat Rat Sattha Tham and eventually Wat Bang Phli Yai Klang.

The temple contains an immense reclining Buddha image of approximately 53 metres long known as Somdet Phra Sakayamuni Si Sumet Bophit. There are 4 stories inside the image itself. The Buddha is around 7 meters longer than the more famous image at Wat Pho in Bangkok.

The experience of climbing inside a huge Buddha like this is very unusual and after climbing up 4 stories inside the Buddha you reach the Buddha’s heart. There are also numerous paintings and other Buddha statues inside the massive structure.

The temple grounds has many other things to see like the ordination hall, massive Chedi that houses a sacred relic brought in from Sri Lanka and so much more. It is worth a few hours if your time to come and see this.
