Pay respects to Luang Pho U Thong at Wat Dong Mun Lek.

ðŸĄWat Dong Mun Lek was built in 1857. There is no clear evidence of its construction. Originally named Wat Noi Nang Tham, it is assumed to have been built around the same time as Wat Lakorn Tham and Wat Phra Ya Tham due to the similarity of the bricks taken from the old ubosot. It was later called Wat Dong Mun Lek because the area had many cassia trees. The important and interesting features within the temple include: 🏠Ubosot: Built in 1977, decorated with chofah, bai raka, and hang hong. The roof has three tiers. Inside, there is a principal Buddha image in the U Thong style, commonly known as Luang Pho U Thong. 🏕Vihara: A brick and mortar building. â™ĻïļWat Dong Mun Lek: Soi Itsaraphap 39, Ban Chang Lo, Bangkok Noi, Bangkok. ðŸŽŊLocation: https://maps.app.goo.gl/isLpr9XYQNTBJN6D6 🕗Opening hours: 08:00 - 17:00.
