The temple emerged as a site of spiritual practice and developed over the decades into an established center of Buddhism in the area. Its growth reflects the neighborhood's development and the deep religious connection of its residents.
The temple draws believers who meditate, pray, and attend ceremonies that strengthen bonds within the neighborhood. The halls fill with activity during religious holidays when families and neighbors gather together.
The grounds are accessible during daylight hours and can be reached via Phet Kasem Road, which is easy to find. It is best to visit in the early morning or mid-afternoon when monks are moving about their daily routines.
