Wat Sommanat Ratchaworawihan, Bangkok 🙏🙏🙏

#VisitBangkok Wat Sommanas Ratchaworawihan Address - Along Khlong Phadung Kasem, Krung Kasem Road, Wat Sommanas Subdistrict, Pom Prap Sattru Phai District, Bangkok Not far from Wat Makut Kasatriyaram Ratchaworawihan Getting there - There is a bus stop in front of the temple. There is bus number 53. It is recommended to take a taxi or private car for the most convenience. Atmosphere/Location - The entrance to the temple is on Krung Kasem Road. When you enter, there will be a parking lot (fee). On the right and left will be Wat Sommanas School. Before entering the temple, there will be a temple gate. When you enter, you will see the temple's chapel. There are 8 round white pillars. There are 2 stairs. There are 3 doors to the chapel. Carved with gold elephants and deities, contrasting with the white walls of the chapel. It is very beautiful. On the side, there are large windows decorated with gold Thai patterns. Unfortunately, the chapel is not open to visitors. It will be open during important religious holidays and festivals. Going around to the back of the chapel, there will be a large golden pagoda. Originally, the Chedi was not open. But I was lucky that the staff went to clean it, so I asked for permission to go in. Inside the pagoda, there are standing and meditating Buddha statues, arranged alternately on all 3 sides, except for the side next to the chapel. The pagoda is similar to the pagoda of Wat Makut Kasatriyaram Ratchaworawihan, but the color is different (Wat Sommanas Ratchaworawihan is golden, Wat Makut Kasatriyaram is white). When I went at 11 am, the sunlight hit the golden pagoda beautifully. Next to the pagoda is a church, which is currently undergoing renovation and cannot be entered. The surrounding atmosphere is quiet and the area is clean. There are some tourist tours. The shop is open every day from 5 am to 8 pm. #Wat Sommanas Ratchaworawihan #Worship
