What are the famous temples in Thailand and how to worship the four-faced Buddha?

There are many Buddha statues in Thailand. You can visit Thailand, but it should be noted that temples in different countries may have different manners. To be clear before going, there are the following temples that are more common in Thailand.

Basic information of Grand Palace

Monday to Sunday 08: 30 ~ 15: 30

Admission: 500 baht (including Grand Palace, Jade Buddha Temple and Grand Temple Mount). You can visit three places with one ticket. If you only visit one, you can't buy a ticket separately. Jade Buddha Temple closed 18.

Take the BTS light rail (CEN station on Xilong line or S 1 to S6 SaphanTaksin station).

Subway fare: 44 baht

Beware of scams: Beware of Chinese speakers in the Grand Palace. It is mainly aimed at free travellers, because the opening hours of the Grand Palace are limited and sometimes it is closed. If you meet a person, find various reasons to tell you that you can't go today, and then recommend other scenic spots, he will call a tuk-tuk car to pit your huge toll, or take you to a black shop to spend money. Anyone who speaks Chinese and comes forward voluntarily is basically a liar. Ignore him. Don't believe anything you say.

Suggestion:

Refuse politely! If someone says they won't open the door today, I suggest you go and see for yourself!

Pigeons near the Grand Palace will be stuffed with corn kernels when they see China people. Never pick them up, but they will ask you for money, whether you feed them or not, at least several hundred baht.

Dress code:

Sleeveless, transparent, suspenders and bare tops are not allowed. Boys' trousers are not allowed to be shorter than knees, girls' skirts and trousers are not allowed to be shorter than knees, and the calf position is excellent.

Tight pants are not allowed. The deposit for renting clothes at the entrance of the Grand Palace is 200 baht, and the apron pants sold outside are 100 baht.

Try not to wear a black coat (occasionally the staff will not let people wearing black clothes come during festivals).

Jade Buddha Temple Jade Buddha Temple records the green jade Buddha excavated by the Thai people and is enshrined here. The Longbi Gallery inside is very interesting. It's basically about the origin of Thai Buddhism, which is quite interesting. Jade Buddha Temple has no food and drink, but there is a free water receiving place. You can buy water at the door at the price of 10 baht.

Taxi drivers near the Grand Palace may cheat people. In order to make more money, they will recommend you to go to other places on the grounds that temples and palaces are closed. Don't be cheated. Be careful when you meet a taxi driver who kindly shows you the way.

Some people can't drink when they enter the temple. They should take off their hats and shoes. When you sit in a temple, your legs should be rolled up.

The corridor from the Jade Buddha Temple leads directly to the Grand Palace, which is an irreversible corridor, so you can't go back to the Jade Buddha Temple when you go to the Grand Palace. This must be noted.

Bodaiji is the oldest temple in Bangkok and the largest temple in Thailand. It takes about 10 minutes to walk from the Grand Palace. The reclining Buddha Temple also belongs to a well-known punching point in Bangkok, and the highlight is the invincible long reclining Buddha in the temple.

This is the entrance to the Buddhist temple, which is really too low-key and inconspicuous. After repeated confirmation, I realized that this is the largest Buddhist temple in Thailand. In such a solemn and important temple, there is a Thai classical massage school, which recruits domestic and foreign students and trains Thai classical massage techniques. So, don't be surprised when you wander in front of the stupa and occasionally a friendly Thai asks if you need to massage chicken.

Opening hours: Monday to Sunday 08:00- 18:30.

Admission: 200 baht per person, and a bottle of mineral water will be given with the ticket.

Four-faced Buddha I often hear many people ask about the four-faced Buddha in Thailand, but I want to tell you that there are many four-faced buddhas in Thailand, so the four-faced Buddha that people often mention is generally what I said. Because it is very effective, it has always attracted good believers from all over the world to come to worship, and everything is responsive, and the big S seeks success. According to some people, not worshiping the Buddha on all sides is like not coming to Bangkok or even Thailand. The four-faced Buddha is not a scenic spot, so you should sincerely worship the Buddha.

Transportation:

ChitLom station of BTS light rail, about 10 minutes walk to the west; Or walk from Siam Square 10 minutes.

The place where the light green roof and many small green umbrellas are located is where the four-faced Buddha is!

Address: The Four Faces Buddha is located next to the Four Faces Buddha Hotel (Siam Square).

The four-faced Buddha is one of Brahma and Hinduism. It has four faces, four hands and one foot.

The four faces represent: peace (holding pearls), career (scepter), marriage (shell) and wealth (golden brick). The foot side of the Buddha statue is the front, holding beads.

It is said that the best time to pay homage is every Thursday night, and the later the visit, the more effective it is. There are also girls who can't pay homage to their menstruation. Try not to wear too many clothes when worshipping Buddha.

The first step to worship the four-faced Buddha correctly: buying incense supplies

Tributes can be bought in it. It is recommended not to buy it outside, it will be very expensive, and try not to bargain in front of the Buddha, but to buy it inside.

Three incense sticks on each side (incense sticks are not needed), one candle and one flower string on each side (so the total number is 12 incense sticks, four candles and four flower strings).

Step 2: Worship Buddha

1, worship in front, you must worship clockwise, put your palms together and put the incense between your palms. After worshipping clockwise on all sides, go to the first side and worship again.

Four-faced Buddha can't just worship one side. It is said that because the four-faced Buddha will be jealous, it will bring bad luck. Others say that you only need to buy a candle, and you should point it in front of which Buddha you want.

Facing the gate is the first side, praying for fame, the second side (left side) is praying for feelings clockwise, the third side (back side) is praying for wealth, and the last side is praying for health, only praying for flowers and fruits, not burning paper money! Because the four-faced Buddha likes flowers, it is clear when and how to make a wish.

1, when you worship, put your hands together (don't put your palms together, feel something between your hands), put your thumb against your forehead, and say your name, birthday, where you come from, what your wish is, how long it will take, and how to realize it after it is realized. Finally, I want to say thank you to the buddhas around me. This process is repeated on each side.

2. Tell your name, birthday, where you come from, what your wish is, how long it will take to realize it, and how to realize it after it is realized. Finally, say thank you to the four-faced Buddha. This process is said once on each side, so that every Buddha can hear the same words.

3. When making a wish, tell the four-faced Buddha how to make a wish. The rarer the way to make a wish, the easier it is to realize it.

Step 3: Purify holy water

Finally, go to the water purification place on the left and clean the water tank with a tin bowl to scoop water, and pat the forehead, face and arms around for Buddha's blessing!

Other temples: Pappu Palace in Wulong Prefecture.

The geographical location of this temple: It is because a Papugong temple is located in the deep forest of Wulongfu, surrounded by a vast forest, built by believers who know the importance of protecting forests and water sources.

The significance of building this temple is to carry out the concept of forest and biodiversity protection advocated by the king of Thailand and then pass it on to future generations. The environment of Bagong Temple is quiet, and this place is very suitable for calming down and practicing. In the main hall, there is also a 20-meter-long white marble reclining Buddha imported from Italy. The marble reclining Buddha is gorgeous and mysterious under the light. At night, Bapu Palace looks even more slippery, mysterious and beautiful under the starry night sky.

Pasongqiao Temple in Bicha Wenfu

Pasongqiao Temple is located at the top of Kaoko Mountain at an altitude of more than 900 meters. The top of the mountain soars into the sky. The whole Buddhist temple is inlaid with valuable gold and silver jewelry, which is very artistic. Under the sunlight, it exudes gorgeous colors, which is more spectacular against the blue sky and white clouds. You can see five white Buddha statues in the Buddhist temple from a distance. When you climb the stupa, you can enjoy a 360-degree view of Kaoko Mountain in the cool mountain wind.

Address: The temple is located in KohFan.

In this way, you may think that Tangkao Temple is a resort, but it is actually a Buddhist temple and a four-story high-rise residence in Thailand. They are: 1 The first floor is a booth, the second floor is a Buddhist temple, the third floor is a monastery, and the fourth floor is a hall built by pine trees, surrounded by trees.
