Jamadin St.

4.5(22 reviews)

Nestled in the Pom Prap Sattru Phai district of Bangkok, this Buddhist place of worship draws visitors with its combination of spiritual atmosphere and rewarding city panoramas. The site holds genuine religious significance, functioning as an active place of worship rather than simply a tourist landmark, and visitors are encouraged to approach it with appropriate respect. The climb to the top involves approximately 350 stairs, though reviewers consistently note that the ascent is manageable and not particularly strenuous. At the summit, an open-air platform rewards the effort with broad views across the Bangkok skyline. The atmosphere is described by visitors as notably immersive, with some spending several hours taking in the surroundings. Entry costs 100 baht per person, making it an accessible option for travellers across a range of budgets. As this is an active Buddhist site, modest dress is recommended — shoulders and knees should be covered before entering, which is standard practice at temples throughout Thailand. Opening hours are not confirmed online, so visiting during daylight hours on a weekday is a sensible approach to avoid potential closures or weekend crowds. No website is currently available, so it is worth checking local travel forums for the most up-to-date visitor information before making the trip.

Tips for Visiting Temples & Culture

Dress Modestly

Cover shoulders and knees at all temples. Carry a light scarf or sarong — some temples lend wraps, but not all. Shoes come off before entering any building with a Buddha image.

Mind Your Feet

Never point your feet at a Buddha image or a monk — it's considered deeply disrespectful. When sitting inside a temple, tuck your feet behind you or to the side.

Ask Before Photographing

Exterior photos are almost always fine, but some interior halls prohibit photography. Look for signs, and never pose irreverently with Buddha images — it's a legal offense in Thailand.
