"Talk to a Real Monk" Spiritual Experience: Buddhism & Rituals

Description

On this private tour, you get to discover the spirituality of Thai locals and hear all about Thailand's main religion: Buddhism. You'll visit 2 magnificent temples to learn more about the story of Buddha. You'll meet monks and explore​ the rituals that shape local life in Bangkok.

Let's kick off your tour by hearing all about the "Temple of the Royal Niece." As you look up and marvel at the magnificent sights and 360 panoramic views, your local host can tell you more about the significance of the 37 golden spires on the roof.

Ask all your questions about mediation, and go to the Walking Meditation Area for an introduction to a meditation technique. Try it out for yourself and begin to understand why locals try to practice it on a daily basis.

Enjoy the stunning view of Bangkok at Wat Saket and the iconic stupa on top.

Get a blessing from a monk, and depending on the time of day, you can also see the monks chanting at the temple, which takes place at 8:30am, and at 2 and 4pm.
