Wat Ratchapradit Sathit Mahasimaram The Royal Temple, about 100 meters away from the Grand Palace, was built in Rama IV, the main temple of gray marble, and the two white temples next to it show the characteristics of the Royal Temple. Because the original capital city had three temples :Wat Mahathat, Wat Ratchaburana and Wat Rachapradit. Bangkok had two other temples, but there was no temple, so Rama IV built the temple on the land selected by Rama III to grow coffee. The outside of the temple is the accommodation area for monks, although it faces the street but is very quiet.
