Wat Thammamongkhon

Located on Sukhumvit Sol 101, this is the highest pagoda in Bangkok. The pagoda, 94.78 metres high, has 14 storeys and an elevator to enable visitors, particularly elderly people, to go to the top of the building. Relics and a hair of the Lord Buddha, kept in the pagoda, were presented by the Supreme Patriach of Bangladesh.
