Worship the Monkey God at Yaowarat

Today, we will take you to worship at the shrine of the Sun God (Tai Siew Hok Chow) in Yaowarat area. It is more convenient than you think!! 🪷 The way to get there is not difficult. We recommend taking the MRT and getting off at Hua Lamphong Station, Exit 1, and following Google Map for no more than 5 minutes. ✨️ The Sun God shrine is compact. Originally, this shrine was located in the area of ​​Wat Sam Chin (Wat Traimit). The shrine has a golden statue of Tai Siew Hok Chow that is over 200 years old. It is a statue that was brought from China and has been revered by Chinese and Chinese-Thai people for a long time. People like to go there to worship and ask for blessings for success, career, and finances. Parents often take their children to worship and ask for blessings for competitive exams. ✨️ The shrine has incense and lamp oil for worship, each set for 40 baht. The first way to worship is to face the road to worship the gods of heaven and earth. Then, stick the incense in the first pot and face the Sun God statue to pray and stick the incense in the second pot. Then, add lamp oil and the ceremony is complete. After lighting the incense outside, walk into the shrine to pay respect and ask for blessings up close again. Some days, the temple will have holy water for sprinkling for good luck. 🙏 If you want to bring offerings such as oranges, pears, peaches, or auspicious desserts, you can do so. The shrine has a tray for you to place them on. After you make an offering, don't forget to take it back to eat or distribute it to the homeless people in the area. 🍊 Opening hours⏰️ Monday - Friday 06:00 - 16:00, Saturday - Sunday 06:00 - 17:00 #100WaysToTravel #Motel #MotelTravel #TravelBangkok
