Wat Welu Rachin, Buddhist temple in Bang Yi Ruea, Bangkok, Thailand.
The temple features traditional Thai architectural elements with ornate decorations, multiple halls, and sacred statues throughout the complex grounds.
During the Thonburi period, the temple area served as a strategic military position against Burmese forces under King Taksin's command.
The temple maintains regular Buddhist ceremonies where local residents gather to practice meditation and participate in religious rituals throughout the year.
Located near Wongwian Yai, the temple welcomes visitors daily from sunrise to sunset, with requirements to wear modest clothing covering shoulders and knees.
The temple stands in an area formerly called Bang Sakae due to dense combretum populations near waterways, reflecting the district's botanical heritage.
