- Wat Mangkon Kamalawat วัดมังกรกมลาวาส, previously (and still commonly) known as Wat Leng Noei Yi วัดเล่งเน่ยยี่ 龙莲寺 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 is located in the district of Pom Prap Sattru Phai in the city's Chinatown, in a courtyard off Charoen Krung Road. It is served by Wat Mangkon MRT station which is located in front of the temple.
The temple is built in a classic Chinese architectural style, with typical sweeping tiled roofs decorated with animal and floral motifs, including the ubiquitous Chinese dragons. The ubosot (ordination hall) houses the temple's main, gold colored, Buddha image in a fusion of Thai and Chinese style, and is fronted by an altar at which religious rites are performed.
The main entrance to the viharn (sermon hall) is flanked by large statues of the four guardians of the world, the Chatulokkaban, clothed in warrior costumes, two on each side. Around the temple there are shrines dedicated to a variety of Buddhist, Taoist and Confucian deities and religious figures, all important in local Chinese beliefs.
The temple is a must see if you come to Chinatown. It’s popular for Thais as well as tourists to visit.

This is a fun temple to visit. It’s popular for the locals to visit and especially busy during Chinese New Year. Here is a video of the festivities in the area if you want to see more.

What an amazing temple. I just get glued to the art that is on display in these Chinese Temples. They are gifted artists and have unique way of expressing their divinity be it buddhism, daoism or folk religion. Wish my Chinese Brothers and Sisters a very happy new year.
@@singhjasbeer5216 this temple is very nice. I really love the 4 giants guarding the entrance. Every time I see them I see something I have never seen before. There is another temple called the green dragon temple that was originally built by Vietnamese Buddhists that a viewer told me about. I’m going to try to stop by in the next couple weeks when I get some free time to see it. I will try to make a video if possible.
Hi!😊😊😊😊
@@ChalermchaiWattanawongpi-lt9uw lots of fun here during Chinese New Year. It’s popular during normal times but super busy this time of year.
You should go to Green Dragon Temple, a small Chinese Temple. It's on Triphet Rd, across from The Old Siam.
@@PongNunki are you talking about this one?
