06 MARCH 2019 - BANGKOK, THAILAND: Boat traffic on the Chao Phraya River goes past Wat Arun just after sunset. Wat Arun Ratchawararam Ratchawaramahawihan or Wat Arun ("Temple of Dawn") is a Buddhist temple (wat) in Bangkok on the Thonburi side of the Chao Phraya River. The temple derives its name from the Hindu god Aruna, who is personified as the rising sun. Wat Arun is among the best known of Thailand's temples. The temple has existed since at least the seventeenth century, but its distinctive prang (spires) were built in the Khmer style in the early nineteenth century during the reign of King Rama II.
