Ascend Thailand’s Temple of the Rising Dragon

- In the Samphran district of Thailand sits one of the country’s most spectacular Buddhist temples. Wat Samphran is a towering pink masterpiece scaling in at 80 meters high - an homage to the number of years Buddha lived. Known for the hollow dragon’s head that encircles the temple, visitors are welcome to ascend the 17-story superstructure to touch the dragon’s beard, or climb inside the belly of the beast.

Why is thailand full of buildings that looked like theyre straight outta video games
marmalade Thailand building skill : *asian*
When I visted the tower, the tour guide just drag-on...
I see what you did there
Really
The dragon looks absolutely majestic wrapped around the building!
I've been here, it's worth a visit. It should also be noted you walk through the dragon to get to the top, there's a giant turtle you can walk through and numerous other statues of animals, deities and the buddha in amongst the park grounds. There was also a boat on a small lake there, and you'll probably see monitor lizards in the streams. Public bus from Bangkok or Nakhon Pathom is available on the nearest big road.
Wait why is it that just now i discover that this exist??? This is amazing this should be as iconic as the Eiffel tower or the pizza tower or statue of liberty
Pizza 😂
"Uncharted: the rising dragon"
Sounds like a good ps4 game
I like this approach to architecture, I think our puritan dour approach sucks. I want more giant dragons in my cities.
You need to show more of things like this. It starts to be more and more interesting, then video ends. 1 minute? Common
+LagiNaLangAko23 most youtuber's are stretching vids to 10 mins to get the extra ad revenue so they could easily pull of longer vids
same i wish we got a little more infor or at least saw inside, then again it is a temple so maybe they couldnt film inside
I love this channel. It’s so interesting cuz I feel like I learn so many new things in each video. I’m from Thailand but I never even knew a temple like this existed in Thailand
Wow that is cool and also freaky
Dragons are guardians of Buddhist teachings. 🐲🐉
I live in Sam Phran but never visit this place. I was very young when it was being under construction. I often drive by this temple and see the dragon. In my opinion, this is not really attractive but when I see it from above, it looks very nice. The locals normally don’t visit but others especially nuns. This temple is different to other temples.
Just found this channel, so happy I did. Already in love :)
This channel never disappoints me.
Holy crap, I live in 6 km from this temple & learned about it by mere occasion o_0 Will go there this weekend, yahoo!
Thank you Great Big Story. You showed me an answer on Imagzle.
I think of Dragon Ball Z for some reason lol. Really cool though😎
Diamondice25 Facts I imagined Goku running around it
Everyones: Imagine if They can Slide Through It
Me: I just want a Giant Fire Flamethrower from The Dragon's Mouth
Next year can you make a video about Thailand’s Songkran?
This is something out a dream! It's wonderful!
On my to do list when i am in Thailand.

I am spanish, it sounds german to me xD In spanish it would be "Fernando VII" who was a spanish king
Ferdinand VII ฮ่าๆๆๆ รุสึกเขินๆเหมือนกัน ว่ะ ผมก้อคนไทยแท้ๆ แต่เพิ่งเคยได้ยินชื่อวัดนี้ เพิ่งเคยเห็นจากไอช่องฝรั่งนี้ครั้งแรกเนี่ยแหละ😂😂😂😂😂

It looks like a theme park.
Makes me mad there isn't a slide in it.
Very unique beautiful Buddhist Temple with Pink touch, giant Dragon and calm Buddha, indeed.
Proud to be Buddhist
I wish the dragons inside was a big slide
