Bang Luang Khlong Community and Baan Silpin, Khlong Bang Luang

1. Visit Wat Kamphaeng in Khlong Bang Chak and pay your respects at Luang Pho Busarakham, a small temple in the Khlong Bang Chak community. Originally, this area was an orchard, which was abundant in the Khlong Bang Chak region when Ayutthaya was the capital. Later, Thonburi and Rattanakosin were added. The ordination hall is built in the Ayutthaya style: rectangular, with a gabled roof, two stories, three tiers of windows, and five windows. There are two entrances and exits. The doors and windows combine Chinese art and are beautifully crafted. This pagoda was built as a memorial and to house the ashes of Phra Phisan Phon Phanit, a Chinese nobleman who served in the Left Port Office during the reign of King Chulalongkorn (Rama V). It can be assumed that Phra Phisanphon Phanit was of great importance to Wat Kamphaeng Bang Chak.

2. Visit Wat Khuhasawan Worawihan, a third-class royal temple of the Worawihan type, belonging to the Mahanikaya sect. Worship the sacred objects and pay your respects to Luang Pho Phong at Wat Khuhasawan Worawihan. 3.
