Have you ever felt tired of being in the middle of chaos? Do you feel like you need some time off? Is the urban life too tiring? Then fear not, the Wat Pa Choeng Lane temple is for you. Wat Pa Choeng Lane is hidden inside a forest in the capital city of Thailand, Bangkok. It’s surrounded by thousands of plants with a canal beside it. It’s very calm and peaceful, favoured by locals. The temple was built 200 years ago during the Kingdom of Ayutthaya. Wat Pa Choeng Lane is unlike other temples. There is no elegant architecture or a big space. The temple’s goal is to help Buddhist eliminate Dukkha, abandon lust and make their minds peaceful. There’s a Buddha quote in the chapel that says: “There is no other happiness than peacefulness”. The abbot and monks here are also very welcoming. They are always ready to help you with Dhamma problems. If you seek Dhamma and peacefulness then you shouldn’t miss out on this temple.
