Wat Saket Temple (Golden Mount) Bangkok

The Wat Saket Temple, a marvel of spiritual significance, is rather uniquely constructed atop the singular hill present in Bangkok. In an era long before the impressive skyline of skyscrapers came to define Bangkok, this temple stood as the city’s highest point, a beacon of faith rising above the surrounding landscape. The temple holds immense significance for followers of Lord Buddha, with its history and location making it a cherished symbol of spiritual devotion.

To reach the top, you must ascend a series of 320 steps. These steps, while physically demanding, lead to a reward well worth the effort – a breathtaking panoramic view of Rattanakosin Island that captures the heart and imagination of every visitor.

To share my experiences, I’ve curated a special gallery collection on my Flickr account. Here, I’ve collated a variety of photos that I captured during my time exploring the rich and fascinating grounds of the Wat Saket Temple.

You view the gallery here and some of the photos featured in that gallery below.

Singapore zoo and aquarium

 

During my recent travels, I was able to bisit Singapore Zoo and Aquarium, a place that stands out as one of the most impressive zoos I have ever visited.

The animals, a diverse array of species, appeared noticeably healthy and well cared for, a testament to the excellent care provided by the zoo staff. It was heartwarming to observe that they had plenty of space to roam and explore.

The zoo and aquarium were meticulously designed to mimic the natural habitats of the various animals as closely as possible. This design choice not only enhances the living conditions for the animals, but also provides visitors with an immersive experience, bringing us as close as possible to observing these beautiful creatures in their natural surroundings.

A great experience and really enjoyed my time spent in Singapore.

Exploring Singapore photography

I recently had the opportunity to visit Singapore, a country rich in culture and an excellent destination for a short trip. The country offers numerous attractions, from exploring Little India to Chinatown, as well as notable landmarks like the infamous Marina Bay Sands and Asia’s best zoo.

During my stay, I captured memorable experiences and moments with my camera, which I have uploaded to my Flickr account.
