Wat Chana Songkhram - 2nd Class Royal Temple & One of 9 Sacred Sites in Bangkok - Thailand 2025

Wat Chana Songkhram

Wat Chana Songkhram, also known as Wat Chana Songkram Rajchaworamahavihan, is a second-class royal monastery located in the Phra Nakhon District of Bangkok, Thailand.

It has a rich history dating back to the Ayutthaya period.

Originally named "Wat Klang Na," it was renamed to "Wat Chana Songkhram" to honor the Siamese soldiers who fought in the Burmese-Siamese War in 1767.

The temple's architecture is a blend of traditional Thai and Chinese styles, featuring a three-tiered roof and intricate gold and red decorations. The main hall, or ubosot, is where monks perform religious ceremonies and visitors pay their respects to Buddha, with walls adorned with murals depicting the life of Buddha. The temple's most impressive feature is its tall and ornate chedi, or stupa.

Wat Chana Songkhram is an important royal temple and is an old second-class royal monastery built in the Ayutthaya era. The temple is located near Khao San Road, off Soi Ram Buttri.

It is one of the 9 sacred temples in Bangkok that are important for making merit for the local Thais. It’s the smallest and least well known of the 9 but still worth a visit.
