How much does a Thai massage cost at Wat Pho Temple in Bangkok?

The prices for Thai massage at Wat Pho Temple are quite reasonable: a traditional 30-minute massage costs 260 baht (about 8 US dollars), and a 1-hour massage costs 420 baht (13 dollars). Foot massage is also available: 30 minutes for 280 baht and 1 hour for 420 baht. These prices are current for 2025 and may change slightly.

Wat Pho Temple is considered the birthplace of traditional Thai massage, and it houses the oldest massage school in Thailand. Massages are performed by experienced specialists, many of whom trained right at the temple. This is a great opportunity not only to relax but also to experience authentic Thai culture.

In addition to massage, the temple offers training courses if you want to learn the technique yourself. Enthusiasts and professionals from around the world come here to practice. Note that massage services are paid, and payment is accepted in Thai baht. We recommend booking a session in advance, especially during peak hours, to avoid queues.

After the massage, you can continue exploring the temple, for example, visit the Reclining Buddha statue or stroll around the grounds with many statues and chedis. Don't forget to also toss coins into the vessels for good luck—it will be a pleasant end to your visit.
