Wat Sai Mai

Wat Sai Mai is a Buddhist temple in Khu Khot with traditional Thai features including multi-tiered roofs, ornate decorations, and white-painted walls. The compound sits within landscaped gardens that give the grounds a well-maintained appearance.

The temple developed when the Sai Mai area became a separate district within expanding Greater Bangkok and needed a spiritual center. It established itself as a significant religious landmark for the growing community.

Local monks at Wat Sai Mai lead morning and evening prayer sessions, maintaining traditional Buddhist practices through daily rituals and ceremonies.

Visitors can enter from sunrise to sunset, and modest clothing is required as a sign of respect. The BTS station at Khu Khot provides convenient access to the temple.

The temple borders Si Mum Mueang Market, one of Thailand's largest agricultural distribution hubs. This proximity creates an unusual connection between a place of worship and a busy commercial center.
