Description:
Wat Traimit ‘Temple of the Golden Buddha’ is considered to be a rather modest temple. The main reason people visit Wat Traimit is to view the magnificent splendor of the World’s largest solid gold Buddha statue. The 10-foot tall Buddha image is reportedly comprised of approximately 83% pure gold and weighs five and a half tons, making it worth millions of dollars at today’s gold prices.
