Pray to Phra Pa Lelai and Sacred Entities

ðŸĄ Wat Makok was established in 1819, believed to have been built during the Ayutthaya period. During the tenure of Phra Khru Wisutthisilachan (Wong) as the abbot, the temple underwent major renovations, including the construction of a bridge over the canal, roads, monk residences, a prayer hall, and a sermon hall. The sermon hall was purchased from Wat Chana Songkhram and built over the old one. The vihara and the Phra Pa Lelai statue were repaired in 1952. Key attractions within the temple include: 🏠 The newly constructed ordination hall, with a statue of Luang Pu Wong at the front. ⛹ A small vihara facing Ban Sai Canal, housing Phra Pa Lelai, an ancient Buddha statue that has been with the temple for a long time. 🏚 The sermon hall facing Ban Sai Canal. 🙏 Guan Yin statue brought from China. 🙏 Statues of Luang Por Thuad, Luang Pu Yuen, and Luang Pu Wong. â™Ļïļ Wat Makok: Chimphli Road, Bang Ramat Subdistrict, Taling Chan District, Bangkok. ðŸŽŊ Location: https://maps.app.goo.gl/NXttPvf23CcikErUA 🕗 Opening hours: 08:00 AM – 06:00 PM.
