  • Wat Mangkon Kamalawat

    Dragon Flower Temple (Wat Leng Noei Yi)

    One of the famous temples in Yaowarat, Wat Mangkon Kamalawat offers many religious activities in a great atmosphere. The temple has better rules than many others, as it doesn't allow the use of incense, which usually produces a lot of smoke. This makes the experience more pleasant for visitors.

  • Siri Guru Singh Sabha Gurdwara

    Second Largest Shikh Temple outside of India

    I visited the Siri Guru Singh Sabha Gurdwara while in Bangkok. Although I've never been to India, this temple felt like a unique and interesting experience. However, it didn't quite have the ambiance of a religious institution; it felt more like a government building or palace to me.

  • King Rama I Monument

    A giant statue of King Rama I, located within walking distance from the flower market and Sky Park, sits in a well-maintained park. The open area is perfect for relaxing, though the fountain at the entrance lacked water during my visit. The statue itself is clean and well-kept, making it worth a visit if you're nearby.
