New Year's trip to Zheng Wang Temple

One way to celebrate the New Year. View the Big Buddha from near and far at Shuimen Temple Check in at Zheng Wang Temple, too tired to dress up in gorgeous Thai clothes for photos📷 Zheng Wang Temple located on the west bank of the Chao Phraya River. Thais do not believe in Mahayana Buddhism, which Tang Monk brought back from his arduous journey, but in Theravada Buddhism, which advocates 'saving oneself without interfering with others', i.e., just caring about how to live without interfering with others. Fortunately, under the guidance of this philosophy, Thais have not become selfish, on the contrary, they are generous, humble and respectful, presumably, they have truly understood its essence! The Zheng Wang Temple in Thailand enshrines the Emperor Taksin - Zheng Zhao. Zheng Zhao, who founded the Taksin Dynasty, was of Chinese descent, as can be seen from his name. His father was born in Guangdong, China, and later married in Siam, giving birth to Zheng Zhao, whom the Thais call Taksin.
