Wat Noi Nang Hong, Buddhist temple in Bang Yi Khan, Bangkok, Thailand
This registered Thai historic site covers approximately 8 rai and features traditional architecture with carved wooden details, red sandstone doorways, and elaborate stucco decorations on the gables.
Founded around 1807 during the reign of King Rama I by Ajarn Pin, who purchased the land from a local farmer for 30 baht to create a peaceful retreat for monks.
The temple serves as a community center where locals participate in religious ceremonies, merit-making activities, and annual Kathina robe-offering festivals that strengthen social bonds.
Open daily from 7:00 AM to 6:00 PM, the temple is easily accessible by public transportation and main roads, welcoming visitors for religious activities and educational tours.
Named after Nai Noi and Nang Hong, a married couple who provided financial support for the temple's construction, making it one of the few temples named after its lay benefactors.
