Wat Mangkon Kamalawat (Wat Leng Nei Yi)

Located in Bangkok Chinatown, this is probably the most famous Mahayana temple where local Chinese go to pray. Built in 1871 in a Chinese architectural style, it took 8 years to finish and later received the name Wat Mangkorn Kamalavas from King Chulalongkorn, or Rama V. The temple is very crowded on special Buddhist occasions and Chinese festivals such as Chinese New Year and the Chinese Vegetarian Food Festival. ( http://www.wikalenda.com)
