    This is the most popular Chinese Temple situated at the heart of china town in Bangkok. Our family visited this temple every year for making merit and blessing for the good health and prosperous in occasion of the coming New Year. Now the temple is very clean and well maintained. Many of lanterns are decorated for blessing a Happy New Year and Chinese New Year. No more smoke from incense due to the policy of healthy environment. No car parking is available. MRT is the good way for transportation to visit here. Visiting in the afternoon would be better than in the morning because of less crowded.

    One of the oldest and most well known Chinese style Buddhist temple in Bangkok. This temple is located in the center of Bangkok Chinatown. It is always busy with Chinese Thai defendant in Thailand and especially busy around luna Chinese New Year. There’s not whole lots of parking, so best try to find parking around the street. Inside the temple, they have no lighting incense policy so Inside the temple aren’t too smoky like many similar temple.

    It is a great temple right in the middle of China Twon. Open to the public daily from 8.00 am till 4.00 p. The red color is almost covering everything inside the temple. It’s such an impressive and unique Temple.

It’s a peaceful retreat in the midst of the city’s hustle. Plus, it’s free to visit. Highly recommend for anyone seeking tranquility and a touch of cultural beauty.
