Wat Arun (Run-to)
Running the riverfront at 6am with Wat Arun backlit by sunrise across the water is the single best visual payoff for an early start in Bangkok.
The Temple of Dawn is stunning at first light, and you can earn it on foot. Run along the Chao Phraya riverside path from Saphan Taksin, cross by ferry, and arrive before the tour groups.
