One of the most elegant and best maintained temples in outskirt Bangkok, in we opinion, is Wat Pak Nam Phasi Charoen. The temple’s name is based on the fact that it is located along a canal, in the Phasi Charoen district. The pillars are made from real teakwood and prove an exceptional match to the marble flooring. There is an area especially dedicated to raising turtles as well, some of which must be at least several decades old.
