  1. Not your standard tourist attraction, but well worth the effort to visit you will not be disappointed. Wat Boromracha Kanchanapisek Anusorn (or Wat Leng Noei Yi 2) is a Chinese temple under the patronage of the Chinese Buddhist Sangha in Thailand or Mahayana Buddhism. Covering the area of 12 rai, the temple is located on Address 75, moo 4, Tambon Sanoloi, Amphoe Bang Bua Tong, Nonthaburi. It was built on June 9th , 1996 to commemorate the 50th Anniversary of King Bhumibol’s Accession to the Throne. Initially, it was only a tiny vegetarian hall on approximately 2 rai. Later, the Chinese Buddhist Sangha in Thailand, led by Wat Mangkorn Kamalawat (Wat Leng Noei Yi 1) had assigned Venerable Phra Kanajanjin Dharma Punya Jariyaporn (Tan Chao Khun Yen Chiew) to be the temple construction Sangha president, and Phra Maha Kanajanjin Dharma Samathiwat to be the construction counseling Sangha president. All Thai-Chinese Buddhists were encouraged to donate in the construction in order to make merit for the king on occasion of his 50th anniversary. I caught the BTS to Mo Chit then took a Bus to Bang Bua Tong, Nonthaburi, buses stop across the road from the Wat and there are plenty of places to eat if you want. This is not the fastest way to get there but most interesting way to mingle with the locals and cheapest way, you can return to Mo Chit BTS for less then 50 bahts.

  2. loved this temple, it felt like we stepped into the forbidden city in beijing. We got the BTS to Mo Chit and a taxi from there costing around 200 baht and a 30 min journey. We took the same route back to bangkok. Recommend going early to miss the crowds.Here are some thai instructions for the taxi.จากตัวเมืองนนทบุรีไปตามถนนรัตนาธิเบศร์ ข้ามสะพานพระนั่งเกล้าฯ ถึงสี่แยกบางพลู เลี้ยวขวาไปยังอำเภอบางบัวทอง ทางเข้าวัดจะอยู่ทางด้านซ้ายมื่อก่อนถึงโรงเรียนเทศบาลวัดละหาร จากกรุงเทพฯ มาตามถนนกาญจนาภิเษก (ตลิ่งชัน-สุพรรณบุรี) กลับรถเลี้ยวเข้าเส้นทางไปโรงเรียนพระแม่สกลสงเคราะห์ ผ่านศูนย์เยาวชนเทศบาล

  3. Wat Boromracha is undoubtedly the most spectacular Chinese temple I have seen so far that rivals the temples that I have visited in Singapore and Hong Kong.The amount of detail placed into the construction of this temple is incredible with the many engravings seen on the ceilings floors and walls of the temple.This temple is really huge with a few interconnected buildings that consist of 3 (or 4) levels in each building. We arrived quite late (about 5pm) otherwise we reckon we would have spent a longer at the temple since the temple closes at 6pm.

  4. To avoid crowd in Wat Mangkorn (Yaowarat area), this temple is the good choice to pray for Chinese god blessing. You have to take off your shoes before enter. Donation is not forced, it depends on you.

  5. Luckily I couldn’t get into the one in Chinatown, have to drive 30 kilometers away to this temple instead. Convenient car park, advise signages are very clear, I know what to do and where for each step, even crowded but no people jam at all.

  6. A very large Wat serving primarily the Bangkok Chinese community. Very good alternative to the Yarowat area where parking is impossible. Although I visited on the day before Chinese Lunar New Year, the people moved through the various buildings in an orderly and pleasant fashion. The buildings are beautifully ornamented, especially the ceilings.. Make a donation and bang the gong!

  7. Came to this temple known as Wat Leng Noei Yi 2, with the first one located in Bangkok’s Chinatown area. We decided to check this one out as my friend said it was much nicer and more spacious than the one in Chinatown, and he was correct. If you want to come here by MRT, you can and it is quite convenient. Just take the purple line MRT all the way to the last stop called Khlong Bang Phai. From there call a cab (there are plenty of them around) to take you to the temple. It is only about 3kms and should cost no more than 60-70 baht. By the way the MRT ride all the way from Rama 9 was 65 baht, so the whole trip cost us less than 130 baht one way. It is a long train ride but a great experience to get to see Bangkok Nonthaburi areas. I came to this temple which is famous for its ritual to wash away bad luck in certain years where your stars aren’t aligned with the Chinese years. So, being a pig in this year of the pig is one such year, according to the experts. The ritual is easy to follow with written instructions also illustrated on TV. You can then walk around the temple and enjoy the beautiful decor, but be warned that it gets really hot in the afternoon. Worth visiting.

  8. We visited Wat Boromracha Kanchanaphisek on a weekday. The temple wasn’t crowded. The temple is beautiful and peaceful. We parked our car at the parking lot on the right side. The temple was well maintained. The highlight is on the main hall on the second floor.
