Viewpoint Wat Paknam

Viewpoint Wat Paknam is a mapped vantage point in the Soi Thoet Thai 26 area of Talat Phlu. The exact map lists 838 Soi Thoet Thai 26, Talat Phlu, Thon Buri, Bangkok 10600. Bangkok’s city learning guide identifies Wat Paknam’s 69-metre Buddha as a landmark visible from the surrounding area. There are several nearby viewing locations, including separate street-side and elevated viewpoints. Use this exact map pin and confirm the final walking approach locally. The temple entrance, cafés and nearby elevated platforms have their own access arrangements; use the entrance for the location you intend to visit. Current admission arrangements, viewing hours, charges and step-free access are unconfirmed. Check permission and access locally before entering a private property or climbing to an elevated viewpoint. The temple’s visiting hours or a nearby café’s timetable do not establish access to this point. The photograph is Patrick Le Petit’s canal-facing view of the Buddha, catalogued under Soi Thoet Thai 26 at a nearby position about 17 metres from this marker. It illustrates the surrounding view rather than an exact standing position. Capture date is unspecified; appearance and access may have changed.
