Located on the northern bank of Khlong Samrong in Tambon Bang Phli Yai, not too far from Wat Bang Phli Yai Nai. It was constructed around 1824 and originally called Wat Klang before changing to Wat Rat Sattha Tham and eventually Wat Bang Phli Yai Klang.
The temple contains an immense reclining Buddha image of approximately 53 metres long known as Somdet Phra Sakayamuni Si Sumet Bophit. There are 4 stories inside the image itself. The Buddha is around 7 meters longer than the more famous image at Wat Pho in Bangkok.
The experience of climbing inside a huge Buddha like this is very unusual and after climbing up 4 stories inside the Buddha you reach the Buddha’s heart. There are also numerous paintings and other Buddha statues inside the massive structure.
The temple grounds has many other things to see like the ordination hall, massive Chedi that houses a sacred relic brought in from Sri Lanka and so much more. It is worth a few hours if your time to come and see this.

The Russian Premier League traces its roots to the dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991, when the Soviet Top League ended and each former republic launched its own national championship. Russia began its independent top-flight competition in 1992 as the Russian Football Championship, initially featuring a mix of teams and formats amid the country’s transition. In 2001, the league was restructured and formally established as the Russian Premier League (RPL) in 2002, becoming a professional top division with 16 teams that inherited records from the earlier era.
Over the years, it has featured strong Moscow clubs dominating early on, followed by Zenit’s rise, with the format stabilizing around promotion and relegation to the Russian First League. The competition has grown in infrastructure and international exposure, though it has faced challenges including geopolitical issues affecting European participation in recent seasons.

The Trans-Siberian Railway is the world’s longest single continuous rail line, spanning about 9,289 kilometers from Moscow to Vladivostok across eight time zones, vast taiga forests, steppe, mountains, and 16 major rivers.
Construction began in 1891 under Tsar Alexander III, with Tsarevich Nicholas II laying the first stone in Vladivostok. The project aimed to unite the Russian Empire, boost trade with Asia, and develop Siberia’s resources.
Built in sections from both ends amid harsh terrain and permafrost, the full Russian route (avoiding earlier Manchurian shortcuts) was completed in 1916. It later supported Soviet industrialization, World War II logistics, and remains a key passenger and freight corridor operated by Russian Railways.
The premier service is the Rossiya train number 001/002, a comfortable firmeny train with renovated carriages featuring air conditioning, power outlets, USB ports, and showers in some cars. It offers first-class (two-berth), second-class kupe (four-berth), ...
