Wat Thepthidaram, Buddhist temple in Samran Rat, Bangkok, Thailand
The temple features traditional Thai architecture with intricate carvings, multiple prayer halls, surrounding gardens, and a prominent main hall with colorful decorations throughout the complex.
King Rama III commissioned the construction of Wat Thepthidaram during the early 19th century as part of his initiative to establish Buddhist learning centers in Bangkok.
The temple maintains its position as a center for Buddhist education where monks and laypeople gather to study religious texts and participate in meditation sessions.
Visitors can reach the temple complex via the Sanam Chai MRT station, with opening hours from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM and requirements to wear clothing that covers shoulders and knees.
The temple's architectural design incorporates elements from both traditional Thai and European styles, reflecting the cultural exchanges of the Rattanakosin period in Thailand.
