The entrance is located on the west side of the Chao Phraya River and it costs a mere 3 Baht to cross over from Tha Thien Pier. Wat Arun is open all year long from 8 am to 5.30 pm and the entrance fee is 100 Baht. It is best to set aside at least an hour to explore the temple. A visit to Wat Arun can be easily combined with a visit to the famous reclining Buddha temple, Wat Pho, which is across the river.
No visit to Bangkok would be complete without taking in the beauty of the majestic Wat Arun.
