Wat Ratchanatdaram is a gorgeous gem in Bangkok that is often peaceful without big hoards of crowds. It was built in 1846 by King Nangklao for his granddaughter and the temple features a unique iron castle-like structure with 37 spires representing Buddhist principles. The temple's design is inspired by ancient Buddhist architecture from India and Sri Lanka, and you can walk all the way to the top for a view over Bangkok! Definitely worth a visit!

Free to visit and climb to the top.
