Wat Dusitaram Worawihan

Wat Dusitaram Worawihan lies on the Bangkok Noi side of the city. Unfortunately this important temple looked rather neglected and dozens of aggressive dogs attack anyone walking to the temple. Once inside the cloister, it is a different world. Peaceful and quiet. Worshippers used it's cloister for a walking meditation. The gallery of the cloister holds 64 standing Buddha images.

Behind the temple is another small temple called Wat Phumarin Rajapaksi, with an old Ubosot and Viharn building. Unfortunately they are both neglected at this time and its grounds are used as a parking lot.
