#Spiritual attractions #Guan Yu Shrine #Bangkok attractions #Worship and ask for blessings #Merit-making trip #Spiritual trip 📌 Guan Yu Shrine, Soi Somdej Chao Phraya 3, Somdej Chao Phraya Road, Khlong San, Bangkok If anyone has ever taken the Chao Phraya Express Boat, they must have seen a beautiful shrine on the banks of the Chao Phraya River, on the same side as Khlong San Pier, near Phuttha Bridge. This is the first shrine in Thailand, built in 2279 during the Ayutthaya period, approximately 300 years old, near Somdej Ya Park, behind Wat Anongkaram, Khlong San area. Chinese Thais like to come here to worship and ask for blessings for good business. If they are civil servants or work in large organizations, they will ask for promotions. If they want to buy and sell land or real estate, they will also come here to ask for blessings. Bring a copy of the land title deed. The officers at the shrine will advise on how to write it and leave the copy of the land title deed with Guan Yu. According to history, Guan Yu was a very honest civil servant. He does not accept any bribes. The prohibition is not to make a vow, just ask for a blessing. If your wish comes true, then come and make merit to thank him. The main offerings are oranges and mooncakes. Before, we offered alcohol, but later it was not necessary. Importantly, we offered morning glory to the horse statue in front of the shrine. The horse will bring us good things.

#Bangkok Attractions Bangkok, Thailand is a world-famous tourist city. Every day, thousands of tourists come to Bangkok for sightseeing and vacation. There are many ancient temple attractions with Chinese culture in Bangkok. This time I would like to recommend an ancient riverside temple attraction with a history of a hundred years: Guandi Temple (คลองสาน). The ancient temple was built on the banks of the Chao Phraya River, close to the BTS light rail station, with very convenient transportation. Free to visit, no tickets required. The ancient temple was built by the first generation of Chinese who came to Thailand in Bangkok, and it has a history of one hundred years. The temple architecture is full of Chinese elements, the decorations are very exquisite and gorgeous, and the photos are very good. The ancient temple was built by the first generation of Chinese who invited Buddha statues from their hometown. It is said that praying here is very effective. Every day, many local residents come here to pray for good health and successful love. Therefore, I especially recommend friends who come to Thailand to visit, take photos and pray.
