Wat Phraya Suren is a working neighbourhood temple in Khlong Sam Wa, in Bangkok's north-eastern suburbs, founded in 1882. Local visitors come to make merit, feed and release fish, and to crawl through the passage beneath the ordination hall, a ritual believed to ward off bad luck and lift one's fortune. The hall has mural paintings, and the grounds hold a large statue of the revered monk Luang Pu Thuat and relics brought from five countries. A small floating market sits right beside the temple. The grounds are open all day and parking is easy; there is no rail station nearby, so most people come by car or taxi. Entry is free, and it suits a calm hour or two away from the city centre.
Rating from public reviews
Each part combines public reviews from several sites (31 reviews). Not our own visit.
Visitors find it quiet, well kept and good for making merit, with more to see than most suburban temples.
Complaints are rare; the main drawback is the long trip from central Bangkok with no rail link nearby.
