EDITORS COMMENTS
Captured in all its majestic glory, the Temple of Dawn (Wat Arun) stands tall on the west bank of the Chao Phraya River in Bangkok, Thailand. This stunning image showcases the iconic temple's intricate architecture and striking colors against a breathtaking panoramic backdrop of the city skyline.
The sun rises over Wat Arun, casting a warm glow on its gleaming spires and golden domes, as if blessing this sacred site. The temple's 79-meter-tall stupa is adorned with colorful ceramic tiles and glitzy decorations, reflecting off the river below like a shimmering jewel.
As one of Bangkok's most recognizable landmarks, Wat Arun is steeped in history and spirituality. Built during the Ayutthaya period in 1677, it was originally known as Wat Chaeng to honor King Taksin who founded it. Over time, it became synonymous with dawn prayers and ceremonies held at sunrise.
This photograph by JA captures not only the grandeur of this revered Buddhist temple but also its intimate connection to the city that surrounds it. As day breaks over Bangkok's bustling streets and riverside markets come alive with activity, Wat Arun remains an enduring symbol of Thai culture and faith.
