The best time to visit the Temple of the Dawn is early morning or evening hours. In the morning, especially before 10:00, there are fewer tourists, allowing for a peaceful visit to the temple and climbing the pagoda without queues. Additionally, the morning light is perfect for photographing the temple's architecture.

In the evening, as dusk falls (in Bangkok, it gets dark between 18:00 and 19:00 depending on the season), the temple is illuminated by spotlights, creating an unforgettable sight. Many tourists prefer to visit the temple during the day to climb the pagoda and enjoy the city view, then cross to the opposite bank of the Chao Phraya River to admire the illuminated Wat Arun from the best vantage point. Near the opposite bank, there are restaurants with views of the temple, where you can combine dinner with watching the evening illumination.

The temple is open daily from 07:30 to 17:30, so plan your visit accordingly. If you want to avoid the heat and crowds, choose morning or evening hours, as well as weekdays.
