Let's go to visit the Thai Buddhist Chetawan Temple in Malaysia. Everything is original Thai.

in Worldmappin2 years ago

Hello everyone. How are you? I'm glad you stopped by to see my post. I'm going to take everyone to see a Thai temple built in Malaysia. This temple was built many years ago by the kindness of the King of Thai people. when he visited Malaysia And since then, Thai people living in Malaysia have Thai temples to make merit and do activities during important festivals as well. Buddhist Thai Chetawan Temple" is a temple built on a hill in a community area. Surrounded by people's houses on alternating hills.

On the morning of one day, I and my family invited each other to make merit at this temple too. Today, the weather is hot, so the atmosphere around doesn't look very clear, but when deciding to go to make merit at the temple We started traveling. It took almost 2 hours. I arrived at this Buddhist temple. When entering the temple door, there would be a parking place to support Buddhists who came to make merit at this temple.

When we arrive at that temple, we can clearly see that the ubosot is located high on a high mountain. Before we go up, there will be a ladder for us to walk up to the ubosot and on the side there will be a 9-headed serpent that stretches in stripes. Surrounding the top ubosot and on the right hand side is the shrine of the four-faced Brahma, who is known and popular to ask for fortune about success in work and studies, which today there are enough Buddhists to worship. We should have decided to walk up to the Ubosot first to pay our respects to the monks at this temple.

Even though the temple here doesn't look like a wow, it is clearly a Thai art. Whether it's a Naga or the statue of Kinnari at the stairs leading up to the uborat Everything clearly shows the identity of Thailand.

Inside the ubosot, there will be a large principal Buddha statue in front. When Buddhists enter, they pay respects. On the side, there are monks who can bless the Buddhists who come to worship as well. And there will be Buddha images in different postures as the birthday of each person, for example, whoever was born on Monday will make merit with the Buddha image on Monday, etc. This ubosot is very large and spacious. Suitable for supporting Buddhists in activities on really important days here, focusing on doing more than commercial purposes.

The atmosphere in the temple was peaceful. But as far as I can see, there are people dressed that don't respect the place. But this place is not as strict as Thai temples in Bangkok. or temples in Thailand.

Numerous statues of elephants that people bring to offer or offer votives after they are done. This is a personal belief. which most Thai people are like that. Even me. On the day when you risk buying lottery tickets, you will wish to win the lottery, hehe.

The bell tower was built separately on the side of the ordination hall. The ground floor will be the door down to the stairs downstairs to go to the monk's cubicle or to be the almshouse itself.

atmosphere of this temple If we look down from of the chapel. We can look at the whole area of the temple, it's a beautiful scenery as well. The mountains in this area are still very fertile even though there are many houses of the population.

After having visited all over the temple and finished paying respects to the Buddha images It made my heart feel very peaceful. My family and I walked down to another small pavilion. I think this is probably the first place to build. There are many more Buddha statues. There will be elephants on both sides of the front. In the back, there is also a place that combines many sacred things that we respect. It can be said that if coming here, it can be done in one place.
