Wat Tha Kham

Located in the Bang Khun Thian district, Wat Tha Kham features traditional Thai architectural elements and functions as both a religious site and historic landmark.

The temple's name originates from its location near a crossing pier where water buffalo carts gathered to traverse the Khlong Dan canal during earlier periods.

The sermon hall contains detailed murals depicting traditional rice farming methods and Mon people's clothing, preserving local customs through art.

Visitors can access the temple grounds daily, with local guides available to explain the historical background and religious practices observed at the site.

The temple stands in Bangkok's largest subdistrict, which contains the city's only coastline and houses protected mangrove forests supporting native wildlife populations.
