Wihan Thep Sathit Phra Kiti Chaloem - Amazing Chinese Temple with Ocean View - Chonburi Thailand
Wihan Thep Sathit Phra Kiti Chaloem also known as Nha Ja Sa Tai Jue Shrine by Chinese visitors is located in Chonburi Thailand.
This beautiful temple can easily match the architectural style and meticulous details that are on offer at any of the more famous attractions to be found in the Chonburi area, a province not too far from Bangkok. Although it may not be as well-known in tourist circles it’s well known to the locals. The Chinese temple in Ang Sila, a small fishing village on the coast of the Gulf of Thailand has so been living in the shadows of the far more “famous” venues that Chonburi province has to offer, such as its resort town of Pattaya, which favours foreign clientele, and the smaller town of Bang Saen with its Thai travelers.
Construction of the main hall was officially finished in 1999, only four years after work had started. With such a huge project, that kind of work never really finishes. There is currently another building being constructed north of the main hall.
Like most Chinese temples it is characterized by symmetry, with matching support buildings in the courtyard as well as two identical front gates which bear the name of the shrine carved in gold over a red background. On the other side of the gates, viewed from the temple courtyard, the walls of the gates are painted with meticulous scenes and calligraphy from Chinese mythology and folklore.
The temple is open daily from 8am to 5pm on weekdays, while on Saturdays it stays open until 6pm and on Sundays until 8pm. The entry is free.
The details in everything are fantastic to see. From hand painted statues to murals the temple borders on optical overload. It’s one of the best things to see in Chonburi and worth a few hours of your time.
Enjoy the video!
