This time I will introduce a hidden temple in Bangkok.
I went there around noon, and there were not many people, so it was a place where there were many locals.
I like to go around people, so I go to various places, but if you have been to Thailand many times, please go there once!
Wat Kok Kham วัดโคกขาม
Khok Kham, Mueang Samut Sakhon District, Samut Sakhon 74000 Thailand
Opening hours: 7:30 to 17:00

Phanthai Norasing Shrine
When I go to certain places, it's like some kind of energy comes to me. I feel cool and comfortable.

Kok Kham Temple
Wat Kok Kham, Samut Sakhon Province
🙏It is an old temple with no clear evidence of when it was built, but it is assumed that it was built in the late Ayutthaya period. There is an old chapel, a Maha Udom chapel, with Ayutthaya-style architecture. Inside, there are Buddha images in all four directions, which are early Chiang Saen Buddha images, approximately 300 years old. The principal Buddha image is called Luang Pho Samrit, Phra Phuttha Sihing, which is the sacred Buddha image of Samut Sakhon Province.
