Siang Kong Shrine Chinese Temple (Bangkok)



The Siang Kong Shrine is sitting amongst the beginning of the second-hand car parts shops.  The Siang Kong Shrine is a small Hokkien Chinese temple built in 1871 to recognise the first junkyard car-parts business in the area known as Siang Kong (also transliterated as Sieng Kong).



Doubling back for a few metres, turn left into Soi Panurangsi (Panurangsi Alley) keeping an eye out for some interesting Talad Noi street art along here.  Follow Soi Panurangsi until the road splits into two.  Take the left fork and walk along Soi Wanit 2 where you will immediately cross the threshold into an area filled with small workshops selling old car spare parts and scrap metal.  You’re now in the Sieng Kong Zone! Text from Talad Noi.



There was the usual more inside the Temple itself.



Remembering of course to leave something for thanks.
