Wat Mangkon Kamalawat (Thai: วัดมังกรกมลาวาส, pronounced [wát māŋkɔ̄ːn kāmālāːwâːt]), previously (and still commonly) known as Wat Leng Noei Yi (Thai: วัดเล่งเน่ยยี่, pronounced [wát lêŋ nɤ̂j jîː]; simplified Chinese: 龙莲寺; traditional Chinese: 龍蓮寺; pinyin: Lónglián Sì), is the largest and most important Chinese Buddhist temple in Bangkok, Thailand. It hosts celebrations of a number of year-round events, including Chinese New Year, and the annual Chinese vegetarian festival.

It is located in the district of Pom Prap Sattru Phai in the city's Chinatown, in a courtyard off Charoen Krung Road, accessed by an alleyway.[1][2] It is served by Wat Mangkon MRT station located in front of the temple.

Thanks to its impressive 12-meter-high Guan Yin Bodhisattva statues carved in teak wood, this fairly recent temple quickly became the most famous Chinese temple in Kanchanaburi province. The covered courtyard which welcomes you does not suggest what you are going to discover inside: a hall with all the partitions and ceilings also in carved teak wood and in the middle of which enthroned, back to back, are the 4 statues of the chinse goddess with 18 arms. In the peripheral corridors, dozens of all different statues are also made of carved wood. Wat Mettatham Photiyan is set to expand to accommodate even more statues. Dozens are already stored to the right of the main hall and are awaiting finalization.

Most Venerable Dr. Shi Kuang Seng established four temples in Thailand, which have become a spiritual shelter for people, regardless of differences in race, religion or gender:
Kuan-Im Bodhisattva’s Hall (Chokchai 4) [Kwan Yin (Chokchai 4) Temple] with Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara’s Great Compassion Pagoda of 10,000 Buddhas, Ladphrao, Bangkok;
Kuan-Im Bodhisattva’s Hall (Chokchai 4) [Kwan Yin (Chokchai 4) Temple], Tambol Pa-dad, Amphuer Muang, Chiang Mai;
Kwan Yin (Chokchai 4) Meditation Center, Amphuer Mae-tha, Lamphun; and Lord Shiva’s Vihara (Ram-indra) Bangkok.
Besides founding these four Mahayana temples of which she is the abbot, she also founded a Vipassana Building for Suwannaprasit Temple, which is a Theravada temple, in 1987.

Fo Guang Shan (FGS) (Chinese: 佛光山; pinyin: Fó guāng shān; lit. 'Buddha's Light Mountain') is an international Chinese Mahāyāna Buddhist organization and monastic order based in Taiwan that practices Humanistic Buddhism. The headquarters, Fo Guang Shan Monastery is located in Dashu District, Kaohsiung, and is the largest Buddhist monastery in Taiwan. The organization is also one of the largest charity organizations in Taiwan. The organization's counterpart for laypeople is known as the Buddha's Light International Association.

Kian Un Keng Shrine or spelled Kuan An Keng Shrine (Thai: ศาลเจ้าเกียนอันเกง; Chinese: 建安宮; pinyin: Jiàn'ān gōng), known internationally as Guanyin Shrine (ศาลเจ้าแม่กวนอิม), is an ancient Chinese joss house in Bangkok, located on the western bank of Chao Phraya River, Wat Kanlaya Subdistrict, Thon Buri District.
This shrine is a Hokkien temple. It's one of the oldest shrines in Thonburi and Thailand by King Taksin and brought the Goddess Guanyin statue to be enshrined here. The Guanyin Bodhisattva is different from other shrines because mostly the Guanyin in other shrines are in standing position, but here the Guanyin is in sitting position.

A short tuk-tuk trip from Klong San Pier on the Thonburi side of the Chao Phraya River, this shrine is dedicated to an ancient god of war renowned for his courage and honesty. Bangkok is home to several shrines to Guan Yu but this is the oldest at almost 300 years old. Many travelers would spot the three-story pagoda with its dragons coiling around the pillars while drifting along on a ferry, but few actually visit. The main shrine features two small images of Guan Yu with his red face and long beard, while inside are also images of Kuan Yin (goddess of compassion), Mi-Lo-Fo (laughing Buddha) and Amitabha.

Wat Huay Pla Kang is known for its unique architecture, built in Chinese-Lanna style with white walls. Nearly all other temples in the region are built in traditional Thai or Thai-Lanna style, while Wat Huay Pla Kang blends Lanna and Chinese elements so thoroughly that the temple is really nothing like either. The elements of Chinese architecture shine through in the color scheme, boasting bright hues of red, yellow, gold or green.
The pagoda is a towering 9 stories tall, with a pyramid shape instead of the round or square structure found in Thai or Chinese pagodas. The top tier is bell-shaped like a traditional Thai Chedi. A pair of Chinese dragons guard the stairs to the inside of the structure.
One of the main attractions of this extraordinary temple is actually the enormous statue just outside. Often mistakenly called the Big Buddha, this impressive figure is actually Guan Yin, the Buddhist ‘Goddess of Mercy’. She waits here at Wat Huay Pla Kang, “observing the sounds of the human world”, as she is known to do.

The Guan Yin Shrine, despite not being listed in most guidebooks, is actually one of Chinatown's most colorful attractions. Guan Yin is the Chinese Goddess of Mercy, and her 900 year old statue stands on the altar inside the shrine. Thousands of locals come to pray here, and especially at holiday times, the shrine is a riot of incense and smoke and the atmosphere is extremely otherworldly. The shrine is part of the Thien Fah Foundation, which is Bangkok's oldest charity group, and the buildings surrounding the Guan Yin Shrine are actually hospital facilities, as the organization provides free medical care to the poor and homeless.

Wat Plai Laem is a Buddhist temple compound on Samui's north-east coast, which features a striking white 18-armed image of Guanyin, the Goddess of Mercy and Compassion. Close to the Big Buddha temple, Wat Plai Laem offers visitors a view into Chinese-Thai beliefs as well as some elaborate Buddhist-themed art and architecture.
Wat Plai Laem is a living and active temple, where devotees come daily to pay homage to Guanyin and the Buddha, who is also depicted in a number of statues and murals around the temple. The art techniques used in its creation are centuries old and based on ancient beliefs. Adding to its feel of tranquillity, the temple is surrounded by a lake, which is teeming with fish. Visitors who make a donation to the temple are given a bag of food to feed the fish.
