Travel back in time with a visit to one of Bangkok’s oldest Chinese-Vietnamese temples. Situated in the city’s old town, you’ll find it just past the Old Siam Plaza. Built back in 1776 – before Bangkok even became the capital – this temple has stood the test of time. Once located by a tranquil pond, it later gained fame as a spot to fend off bad luck. Today, the surrounding neighbourhoods along Charoen Krung are buzzing with activity and vintage charm with plenty to see and do once you’ve finished warding off the evil eye.
119 Thip Wari Soi Wang Burapha Phirom, Phra Nakhon. 02-623-8949. Open 6am-5pm
