A temple on an artificial hill with 360-degree views of the Old City and a popular evening atmosphere.
An 80-meter artificial mound topped with a gleaming golden chedi makes this one of the few spots with real views of old Bangkok's skyline.
A spiral staircase winds up the mound — easier than it looks, and locals come here in the evening for the breeze and to watch sunset.
Wat Saket hosts a massive fair each November called Loy Krathong, when the entire mound is lit up and surrounded by carnival rides and food stalls.
