Also named the&nbsp;Temple of the Dawn, it is insanely pretty and one of the most Instagrammable places in Bangkok!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wat Arun has four large spires surrounding a central prang that reaches 80m above the ground. Also, while you\u2019re in the area (and you\u2019ll surely be, as Wat Arun, Wat Pho and the Grand Palace are all in the same \u201cneighbourhood\u201d, just across the river), make sure to check out the views of Wat Arun from the east side of Chao Phraya river at sunset.
