วัดบรมราชากาญจนาภิเษกอนุสรณ์ (วัดเล่งเน่ยยี่ 2)
The grandest Chinese temple complex in the Bangkok orbit — the suburban sister of Yaowarat's Wat Mangkon, gilded to the rafters.
The Chinese-Buddhist mega-temple of Bang Bua Thong is Wat Mangkon's suburban sibling. Its dragon-roofed halls run at triple scale, gilded to the rafters.

Visiting a temple
- Shoulders and knees covered, for everyone. Sarongs are usually available at the gate, sometimes for a small deposit.
- Shoes come off before you step into an ordination hall — watch what everyone else is doing at the threshold.
- Most compounds open early, around 08:00, and close by 17:00–18:00; the major ones charge foreign visitors a small entry fee.
- Early morning is cooler, quieter and far better light than midday.
Check current entry fee and today's closing time when you arrive — we have no verified official site for this one.
