Historical Background

Wat Traimit, home to the Golden Buddha, dates back to the Sukhothai period (13th-14th centuries) and was rediscovered in its current form in the 1950s when the plaster covering the statue was accidentally chipped off, revealing the solid gold beneath. Wat Pho, known for its large Reclining Buddha statue, was established in the 16th century and extensively renovated by King Rama I in the late 18th century as a center for education and traditional Thai medicine. Wat Benchamabophit, or the Marble Temple, was built in the early 20th century by King Rama V using Italian marble imported from Carrara.
