Worshipping in Wat Mangkon Kamalawat
A visit to Bangkok’s Chinatown is not complete without exploration of Wat Mangkon Kamalawat. The “Dragon Lotus” temple, considered to be the largest and most important Chinese house of worship in all of Bangkok, sits in the heart of Chinatown and is busy all year round with the devout stopping by with offerings and prayers.
Here, worshippers light incense continuously. They fill the eternally burning altar lamps with oil in hopes of keeping the “fire” of the present life going and gaining a smooth journey into the afterlife.
