Largest Chinese Buddhist temple in Bangkok - Wat Mangkon Chinatown

Wat Mangkon Kamalawat วัดมังกรกมลาวาส, previously (and still commonly) known as Wat Leng Noei Yi วัดเล่งเน่ยยี่, simplified Chinese: 龙莲寺; traditional Chinese: 龍蓮寺, is the largest and most important Chinese Buddhist temple in Bangkok, Thailand.

Wat Mangkon Kamalawat was founded as a Mahayana Buddhist temple in 1871 or 1872, by Phra Archan Chin Wang Samathiwat (also known as Sok Heng), initially with the name Wat Leng Noei Yi. It was later given its current name, Wat Mangkon Kamalawat, meaning "Dragon Lotus Temple", by King Chulalongkorn (Rama V).

It’s a very interesting temple with things like the 3 deities and the 4 guardians. In this video I give us a tour of it for you to explore the sights and sounds with me. Enjoy the video!
