Vietnamese Temple Bangkok

There are some 6 temples in Bangkok which were founded by Vietnaemse monks going back decades.  While many of these no longer have Vietnamese Abbots, they do sponsor Vietnamese monks over to study in Bangkok.



We met one today, at the Vietnamese temple near Chinatown



This temple has had something like 6 Abbots, however the current one is Thai.  There are two Vietnamese monks here.



It's a small world, because this Thay is a Buddhist brother of one that has a temple in Cabramatta five minutes walk from our place.  He comes from the Central region and knows alot of Walter's monk friends.
