Wat Bang Bo, Buddhist temple in Bang Bo, Thailand.
Wat Bang Bo is a Buddhist temple in Bang Bo featuring traditional Thai architecture with multi-tiered roofs and ornate decorations. The grounds contain several ceremonial halls and structures arranged across the space.
The temple became a central religious site in Bang Bo after the district changed its name from Bang Hia in 1930. This name change marked a turning point in the area's development and the role the temple played in local society.
Monks here participate in daily alms collection, reflecting the deep connection between the temple and surrounding community members. This practice remains a visible part of everyday life and shows how religious traditions continue to shape local routines.
Visitors should wear clothes that cover shoulders and knees, and remove shoes before entering buildings. It helps to wear easily removable shoes and respect the basic rules for entering religious spaces.
The temple sits near Khlong Suan market, where vendors have sold local goods for about 100 years. This old market preserves a traditional trading character and shows the close connection between the temple and local economic life.
