Gurdwara Siri Guru Singh Sabha Sikh Temple - Little India Bangkok Thailand 2022

Gurdwara Siri Guru Singh Sabha Sikh Temple is the 2nd largest Sikh temple outside of India. It’s located in the “old town” of Bangkok in what is known as Little India.

The gold dome of the temple stands out and is difficult to miss. The entrance is a bit more hidden but it is close to the Pahurat Market. This market sells colorful textiles on the streets as well as a 4 story mall near the temple. The temple is open to the public everyday and closes at 10:00 am.

The temple is well worth a visit if you are in the area and is a nice addition to a holiday especially if you’ve already done a few Thai temple tours. From the 6th story of the temple you can see some nice views of the area and see up into nearby Chinatown.

This construction has some historical and cultural value in that it actually dates back to 1932 and is the second largest Sikh temple outside of India.

The temple has something of a reputation for being welcoming, a fact made obvious by the daily buffet of vegetarian food that is actually provided every morning, for anyone who comes to the temple, regardless of any religious denomination. The temple also has a large outreach program that feeds the needy people in the community. Food is given out to anyone in need and is part of the Sikh faith in donating 10% of their income to the temple.

The temple is very interesting and a great side trip from the shopping malls or crowded areas along Sukumvit.
