Wat Noen Chan, an old temple over 175 years old, is located at 43 Moo 12, Bueng Kum District, Bangkok. Wat Noen Chan was originally called Wat Song Phi Nong because two siblings donated money to build the temple. They built the temple around 1846. Later, around 1880, the temple was moved across the canal to its current location, which was given to Khun Jongjai Rangap Phan (Chan), the headman of Khlong Kum Subdistrict, and Mrs. Jongjai Rangap Phan (Nuan). Therefore, the temple was named "Wat Noen Chan" after the names of the two people. It is considered a clean, quiet, and shady temple. Currently, it is considered a temple where people come to make merit, worship Buddha, make offerings to monks, make annual Kathin offerings, pay homage to sacred objects, release fish, and chant prayers to welcome the new year. 📍 https://goo.gl/maps/UCEiP5YVg5f9CdpFA #Mr.Tourism #CentralRegion #CentralRegion

Wat Khun Chan This temple is considered an ancient temple that has been on the Thonburi side and Talat Phlu area for more than a hundred years. It was built around 1827-1837 during the reign of King Rama III, approximately 177 years old, by Phraya Maha Amatayathibodi (Pom Amatayakul). At that time, it was named “Wat Khun Chan” because the builder of this temple was victorious from Vientiane. Then, during the reign of King Rama V, it was renovated and renamed by King Rama V, “Wat Waramatyaphanthasararam”. Most of the architecture of Wat Khun Chan is a beautiful blend of Thai and Burmese art. There are many sacred objects to worship, such as Luang Pho To, Luang Pho Yok Khao, Kuan Im Petch Ngam, the reclining Buddha, Phra Buddha Chinnarat, etc. But the most outstanding thing is probably Phra Rahu. This is because there is a ceremony to ward off bad luck for the unlucky year and to worship Phra Rahu. There is a ceremony to chant the Navagraha Rahu prayer every year. It can be said that it is one of the famous temples on the list related to Phra Rahu. Anyone who wants to pay homage to Phra Rahu or ward off bad luck or bad luck must travel to Wat Khun Chan.
