Wat Arun or Wat Chaeng locates by the west bank of the Choa Praya River, Bangkok. The highlight of Wat Arun is Praprang, the huge pagoda. Old Praprang of Wat Arun, with 79 meter height,  have been one of the famous symbols of Thailand. I am not sure how old is Praprang?  But I realize that it is old and good tourist site in Bangkok.
