Wat Pathum Khongkha Ratchaworawihan, Buddhist temple in Samphanthawong, Thailand.
The ordination hall contains a principal Buddha statue named Phra Phuttha Mahachanok, displaying traditional Thai architectural elements and gold leaf decorations.
During the reign of King Rama III, the temple grounds served as an execution site for Prince Kraisorn, with the sandalwood cudgel stone still preserved.
The temple doors and windows feature intricate lacquered gold leaf painting patterns that demonstrate the precision of Thai craftsmanship through generations.
Located at 1620 Song Wat Road in Bangkok's Chinatown district, the temple welcomes visitors interested in exploring Thai Buddhist heritage.
The canal in front of the temple contains the ashes of cremated royal family members and white elephants, making it a sacred water body.
