Description
Wat Phutthabucha is a beautiful Buddhist temple tucked away in a quieter corner of Bangkok. It is a lesser-known temple with far fewer tourists. The temple's tranquil environment, combined with its natural surroundings, creates an nice habitat for various birds. The small canal running alongside the temple grounds makes the area extra attractive for birds. The star bird here is the Black-crowned Night Heron. You almost can't miss them along the canal.
