Saint Louis Church, Bangkok

Saint Louis Church is a Roman Catholic church in Sathon district, Bangkok, Thailand. Named after Louis IX, also known as St Louis, the only French king to be canonised as a saint, it is part of the complex on Sathon Road which includes Saint Louis Hospital. History Saint Louis Church is situated adjacent to Saint Louis Hospital on land purchased in Sathon district, Bangkok in 1895 by Bishop Jean-Louis Vey, Vicar Apostolic of Eastern Siam. Vey founded the hospital in 1898 but his plan to also build a church on the site did not proceed. In November 1955, when Bishop Louis Chorin was serving as Apostolic Vicar of Bangkok, the intention to build a church was announced. In August 1956, a ceremony was held to bless the site after fund raising by the Christian community, and construction was completed during the following year, and the church was consecrated on 25 August 1957. Chorin appointed Fr Michael Langer, who had experience working in China, as its first pastor. Description Built in the Gothic and contemporary style, the nave has an arched vaulted ceiling and walls of red brick with stucco carvings representing the Stations of the Cross. Next to the altar of Italian marble is a statue of St Louis. References

East Asiatic Building

The East Asiatic Building is a historic building in Bangkok's Bang Rak District. It sits on the eastern bank of the Chao Phraya River, opposite the Oriental Hotel on Soi Charoen Krung 40 and adjacent to the Catholic Mission and Assumption Cathedral. The building was built c. 1900 in Renaissance Revival style to designs by Annibale Rigotti, and served as the headquarters of the East Asiatic Company (Thailand) until 1995, receiving the ASA Architectural Conservation Award in 1984. In 2023, Asset World Corporation announced plans to renovate the building into a hotel under the Plaza Athénée brand, in partnership with Nobu Hospitality. Site The East Asiatic Building is located at the end of Soi Charoen Krung 40, facing the Chao Phraya River, in Bang Rak district in Bangkok. The building sits next to the Mandarin Oriental Hotel, on opposite sides of the soi. The Mandarin Oriental, originally the Oriental, was formerly owned by Andersen & Co., established by Hans Niels Andersen and Andreas du Plessis de Richelieu, which later become the East Asiatic Company (EAC). The building has direct access to the river via the Oriental pier. Architecture Sources credit the building's design to Italian architect Annibale Rigotti. The building, in Renaissance Revival style, is a masonry structure with three floors. The river-facing front façade features rows of semicircular-arched windows and a central projecting porch, the height of the building, topped by a large parapet bearing the company's insignia. A grand front staircase leads up to the main entrance on the middle floor. History The plot of land where the building stands previously served as a warehouse for the EAC before being torn down for the new building, which was constructed around 1900 to serve as the headquarters of the company. In 1995, EAC Thailand moved its headquarters to Lumpini Tower, and the building was sold to Charoen Sirivadhanabhakdi's business group. For some time in the 2010s, it was used as a commercial event space and rented as a filming location, administrated by Charoenkrung Studio. The building is generally closed to the public, but was opened to visitors in November 2018 when it was one of the venues for the Bangkok Art Biennale. Future In 2023, Asset World Corporation (AWC), a real estate developer under the Sirivadhanabhakdi family's business group, announced that it would renovate the building as a hotel, to be operated under partnership with Nobu Hospitality as the Plaza Athénée Nobu Hotel and Spa Bangkok. Due to the building's cultural significance and heritage, AWC will preserve the building's exterior, whilst incorporating elements of Nobu hotels. The hotel is planned to be completed by 2026.

Wat Sri Suphan

Wat Sri Suphan (Thai: วัดศรีสุพรรณ, RTGS: Wat Si Suphan) is a Buddhist temple in Chiang Mai, northern Thailand. It is situated on Wualai Road, Haiya district, in the southern part of the old city. It is known as the "Silver Temple" because its ordination hall was constructed using silver, aluminium and nickel. History Wat Sri Suphan was founded around 1500 during the reign of King Mueang Kaeo of the Mangrai Dynasty (1292–1558). Within ten years, the assembly hall, the ordination hall, and the pagoda (Phra Wihan Borommathai) had been completed, and the Buddha image (Phra Phutthapatitam) consecrated. Little remains of the original buildings except some teak pillars and supports which can be seen in the new assembly hall. The temple is situated in Haiya district, the traditional silversmith area of the city where workshops continue to operate. Their craftsmanship was celebrated when the temple's striking new ordination hall was completed using silver, nickel, and aluminium panelling, and featuring extensive, decorative metalwork sculpting and repoussé work. The ordination hall is in active use and women are barred from entering. In 2022, the pagoda, which had previously formed a large crack, collapsed following heavy rain. In the remains many Buddhist artefacts were discovered which had been placed inside the structure. The collapse was attributed to the later addition of an outer cement shell that was painted over with gold construction paint, which added weight and trapped moisture in the original earthen core.

Wat Sri Suphan

Il Wat Sri Suphan (in thailandese วัดศรีสุพรรณ?, Wat Si SuphanR) è un tempio buddista in stile Lanna situato nella città di Chiang Mai, nel nord della Thailandia. È conosciuto anche come "Tempio d'argento" per via delle grandi decorazioni in argento, alluminio e nichel che ricoprono sia l'interno che l'esterno della struttura. Storia Fondato intorno al 1500 durante il regno del re Mueang Kaeo della dinastia Mangrai, il tempio sorge sulla strada di Wua Lai nel sottodistretto di Haiya, un'area della città i cui abitanti, oggi come in passato, sono in gran parte artigiani esperti nella lavorazione dell'argento. Dal 1957 al 1972 si può parlare di «periodo d'oro» per la vendita di manufatti in argento, grazie all'incremento del turismo e all'aumento della domanda; negli anni Sessanta si potevano contare circa duecento artigiani. L'aumento del benessere per i cittadini locali portò inevitabilmente ad un cambiamento nella pratica, inizialmente visibile con l'utilizzo dell'alluminio per ridurre le quantità di argento nei manufatti. La maggiore accessibilità ad un'educazione superiore ha portato la generazione più giovane ad allontanarsi dall'artigianato, risultando in una diminuzione di argentieri. La sala delle ordinazioni e il chedi Phra Wihan Borommathai sono vennero completati nel 1509. In origine il tempio non era costruito con questo metallo, tuttavia le riparazioni effettuate nel tempo vennero invece realizzate utilizzando argento e altri metalli simili. La maestria degli argentieri ha permesso di utilizzare pannelli in argento, nichel e alluminio per completare la sala delle ordinazioni del tempio, a cui si aggiungono grandi sculture decorative e lavori di sbalzo realizzate con gli stessi materiali. Nel 2008 si è deciso infine di ricoprire l'intero tempio d'argento, per un costo totale di un milione di dollari. La sala delle ordinazioni del Wat Sri Suphan è in uso attivo e alle donne è vietato l'ingresso. Note Altri progetti Wikimedia Commons contiene immagini o altri file su Wat Sri Suphan
Ministry of Public Health (Thailand)

The Ministry of Public Health (MOPH; Thai: กระทรวงสาธารณสุข, RTGS: Krasuang Satharanasuk) is a Thai governmental body responsible for the oversight of public health in Thailand. It is commonly referred to in Thailand by its abbreviation so tho (สธ.). The headquarters of the ministry is located in Mueang Nonthaburi, Nonthaburi, and served by Ministry of Public Health MRT station on the MRT Purple Line. History In Thailand before 1888 there were no permanent, public hospitals to provide care to sick people. Temporary hospitals were set up to care for patients during epidemics, then disbanded when the epidemic subsided. Under King Chulalongkorn (Rama V) a hospital was constructed and completed in 1888 and named "Siriraj Hospital" in commemoration of the king's young son, Prince Siriraj Kakudhabhand, who had died of dysentery. King Vajiravudh, King Chulalongkorn's successor, established Department of Health on 27 November 1918. During the reign of King Rama VIII, the Ministry of Public Health was established on 10 March 1942 as a result of the enactment of the Ministries and Departments Reorganization Act (Amendment No. 3) of B.E. 2485. Later in 1966, the date 27 November was chosen as the commemoration day of the Ministry of Public Health's foundation. Budget The MOPH was allocated 135,389 million baht in the FY2019 budget.

Immaculate Conception Church, Bangkok

The Church of Immaculate Conception of Bangkok (Thai: วัดคอนเซ็ปชัญแห่งพระแม่เจ้า, pronounced [wát kʰɔ̄(ː)n.sép.t͡ɕʰān, -t͡ɕʰân]), also known as Wat Khamen (วัดเขมร, [wát kʰā.měːn]), is the oldest Catholic church in Thailand. Its name Immaculate Conception comes from the Catholic belief that by the will of God the Virgin Mary was conceived free from original sin. History The first Portuguese missionaries arrived in Thailand in 1567. Bangkok, at that time, was still a transit port along the Chao Phraya river on the way to Ayutthaya. In 1674, during the Ayutthaya era, King Narai the Great granted land in Bangkok to the Portuguese community to build the Church of Immaculate Conception. The French had attempted under several expeditions to Thailand to try to convert King Narai to Catholicism, despite his refusal, he allowed both French and Portuguese missionaries to continue their work in spreading their faith. During the building of the church the city of Ayutthaya was captured by the Burmese and this halted progression for a while however construction soon continued. During the Bangkok era King Rama I invited the Portuguese traders to return in order to stimulate the economy and the church was rebuilt in 1785. The Church was rebuilt on two other occasions in 1832 and 1847 by an influential French missionary Monsignor Pallegoix. The building from 1847 remains today. The Church and refugees The Church has a long history associated with refugees. In 1785 the Portuguese came with Cambodian refugees who had fled the civil war of their country. They were the main contributors in rebuilding the church. During this period 500 Cambodians took refuge in the church and it was later renamed Bot Ban Khamen or Cambodian Village Church. Vietnamese immigration increased in Thailand due to religious persecution in Vietnam. In 1832 Thailand waged a war with Vietnam and many prisoners of war taken to Thailand refused to return to Vietnam and preferred to stay in Bangkok. They rebuilt the Church in 1832 and it was called Bot Ban Yuan or Vietnamese Village Church. Location Soi Mitrakham, Samsen, Bangkok, Thailand.
