Wat Si Kan

The temple compound features traditional Thai architectural elements with detailed carvings, multiple Buddha statues, and ornamental decorations throughout its buildings.

The establishment of Wat Si Kan predates the formation of Don Mueang district in 1989, when the area transformed from Bang Khen district into a separate administrative zone.

The temple functions as a central gathering place for Buddhist ceremonies, religious festivals, and merit-making activities that maintain Thai spiritual traditions.

Visitors must wear modest clothing covering shoulders and knees, remove shoes before entering temple buildings, and maintain silence during prayer times.

The temple maintains its traditional function despite its location near Don Mueang International Airport, creating a contrast between ancient practices and modern aviation.
