[2025 Bangkok Attraction] Travel Guide for Wat Pathum Khongkha Ratchaworawihan (Updated May)

#VisitBangkok Today, I will take you to another temple in Bangkok, which is located in a tourist area like Yaowarat. This temple is located next to the Chao Phraya River. Wat Pathum Khongkha Ratchaworawihan is a second-class royal temple. Originally, this temple was called Wat Sampeng, after the road in front of the temple. Later, during the reign of King Rama I, it was given a new name, "Wat Pathum Khongkha". Wat Pathum Khongkha Ratchaworawihan has been around since the Ayutthaya period. When King Rama I first established Rattanakosin, he ordered Phraya Thammathikorn (Bunrod Bunyaratphan) and Phra Wichit Nawi to be the chiefs of the craftsmen and commoners to build a new city on the east bank. He ordered Phraya Rachasetthi and the Chinese to move and build houses in the garden area from Khlong Wat Sampluem (Wat Chakrawadi Ratchawat) to Khlong Wat Sampeng (Wat Pathum Khongkha). It was considered an ancient temple that was very dilapidated, so Somdet Phra Bowonratchao Maha Sura Singhanat ordered the entire temple to be renovated. When the palace was renovated and completed, King Rama I gave it a new name: "Wat Pathum Khongkha". #Worship and ask for blessings

#triptravelchina #placestovisitbangkok #watpathumkongkha 📞Hello Hello, I heard and answered. Watpathumkongkha is an ancient temple located on the banks of the Chao Phraya River, at the end of Song Wat Road, Samphanthawong District. The temple is under renovation. The ordination hall is almost finished, but it is not open for viewing yet. The temple has just begun renovation. This temple has a platform for the execution of prisoners, located in the Krom Luang Rak Ronnaret Court. This platform is used to support and hit the head with a sandalwood log. It is used for those who commit crimes of royal rank. However, commoners are executed at Wat Phlap Phla Chai. The last prisoner who used this method was Mom Kraisorn, before switching to the method of beheading. The monks' huts, which are gingerbread houses, are also waiting for the day of restoration. I think when it is finished, it will be very beautiful.

🙏 Wat Pathum Khongkha Ratchaworawihan, a second-class royal monastery, was originally named Wat Sampheng. It dates back to the Ayutthaya period and was in a state of disrepair. Somdet Phra Bowornrajchao Maha Sura Singhanat restored and repaired the entire temple, and King Rama I renamed it Wat Pathum Khongkha. 🙏 During the reign of King Rama III, restoration began but was not completed. King Rama IV continued the restoration. 🙏 He elevated the Phra Phuttha Maha Chanok, a Buddha image in royal attire, the principal Buddha image in the ordination hall, and placed it on a higher base. He also added two statues of celestial kings holding golden and silver flower umbrellas. 🙏 Inside, there is a walkway around the ordination hall, lined with Buddha images. 🛖 There are ballast stones decorated in various places within the temple. In the early days, these ballast stones were plain stones and not yet carved into stone dolls. During the reign of King Rama III, ⛵ when Siam sent goods to China, the junks needed sufficient weight to navigate the sea waves. Without enough weight, the ships would sway and could not sail through the waves. Therefore, ballast stones were placed under the hull. 🏚 The shrine of Krom Luang Raksa Ronnaret (Mom Kraisorn) contains an execution platform. 🧱 Krom Luang Raksa Ronnaret was executed by being struck with a sandalwood club on this stone platform in the temple courtyard in 1848, accused of plotting a rebellion. 🏰 In 2017, Wat Pathum Khongkha Ratchaworawihan was registered as an ancient monument land. 💥 Wat Pathum Khongkha Ratchaworawihan: Song Wat Road, Samphanthawong Subdistrict, Samphanthawong District, Bangkok. 🌐 Coordinates: https://maps.app.goo.gl/uERTENiy1tWDfAMdA 🕔 Opening hours: 05:00 - 21:00
