Kudi Charoenphat, Historic mosque in Wat Arun area, Bangkok, Thailand
The Kudi Charoenphat mosque exhibits ornate wooden fretwork and decorative elements that characterize the Gingerbread house architectural style from the late 18th century.
Founded in 1785 during King Rama I's reign, this Shia Muslim place of worship was initially named Kudi Lang due to its southern position relative to Kudi Bon.
The mosque serves as a central gathering point for Chao Sen Muslims, hosting religious ceremonies during Muharram, the first month of the Islamic calendar.
Located on Thanon Itsaraphap near Bang Luang Canal, the mosque stands at coordinates 13.736786 latitude and 100.486856 longitude in Bangkok's historic district.
