🛕 Siamese Buddhist Chetawan Pagoda – A Touch of Thailand in Petaling Jaya

#holidayitinerary #weekendactivitykl #august2025 If you’ve ever wanted to experience the beauty of a Thai-style Buddhist wat without leaving the Klang Valley, the Siamese Buddhist Chetawan Pagoda is a perfect choice. This stunning temple showcases authentic Siamese architecture, complete with intricate carvings, vivid colours, and gleaming golden ornaments that radiate elegance and spiritual charm. The temple grounds are immaculately kept, offering a peaceful atmosphere ideal for quiet reflection, gentle strolls, or meditation. Visitors will find a shrine dedicated to Brahma (Phra Phrom), where devotees present incense and flowers as offerings. At the heart of the complex stands the main Buddha image — serene, majestic, and a powerful reminder of the Buddha’s teachings. Beyond its role as a place of worship, Chetawan Pagoda is a slice of Thai heritage carefully preserved in the middle of urban PJ. The best part? No entrance fee and free parking — a rarity in such a busy area.
