Pay respects to Luang Por To in the beautiful ordination hall

🏘 Bang Nam Chon Temple was built during the late Ayutthaya period. Some evidence suggests it was constructed in 1803 (B.E. 2346). Originally, it was called Wat Pak Khlong because it is located at the mouth of Bang Nam Chon Canal. Key highlights and attractions within the temple include: 🏠 The ordination hall, which has been newly renovated, features a unique two-story design with extended porches at the front and back. The architecture is strikingly beautiful and distinctive, especially the intricate and exquisite sculptural patterns. The designs and colors are unparalleled. Inside, you will find Luang Por To, a large golden Buddha statue, along with stunning murals. 🛕 At the four corners of the ordination hall, there are busabok shrines housing sacred Buddha images, including Luang Por Sothorn, Phra Buddha Chinnarat, Phra Buddha in the Opening World posture, and Phra Buddha Sihing. ðŸ™ðŸ― The temple also houses various revered figures such as Guan Yin, Ananta Naga, Sri Sattanakharat Naga, Rahu, the Quick Success Deity, Nang Kwak, Ai Khai, and more. â™Ļïļ Bang Nam Chon Temple: Address - 317 Charoen Nakhon Road, Samre Subdistrict, Thonburi District, Bangkok. ðŸŽŊ Location: https://maps.app.goo.gl/1pCCBHPUtQUrxydp6 🕗 Opening hours: 08:00 AM – 06:00 PM.
