Wat Soi Thong

Wat Soi Thong (Thai: วัดสร้อยทอง) is a third-classed royal Buddhist temple in Bangkok. The monastery located by Chao Phraya River near Rama VI Bridge, Rama VII Bridge and Yothinburana School. It was built around 1851, assuming that built by the descendants of Chao Phraya Si Phiphat (Phae Bunnag) during King Rama VI's reign. The principal Buddha image named Luang Pho Luea (หลวงพ่อเหลือ) is cast-brass made of left-over materials from the other Buddha images cast in 1902 with the cooperation of one millionaire and the local people. Its name "Wat Soi Thong" literally translated as "temple of golden necklace". It is said that this temple was originally called "Wat Son Thong" (temple of hidden gold) according to folklore titled "Legend of Lord Uthong" about the legendary king Lord Uthong (not King Uthong of Ayutthaya), who escape the war (some said escape from cholera) and brought with him a lot of gold and there was a reason to hide these golds here. Inside the head of principal Buddha image, the relics of the five arhats are contained. In 1941 during World War II, as the temple was located on a strategic site, it was severely damaged by the bombs. However, Luang Pho Luea was unscathed and therefore received the faith from the people since then. The story of this miracle has been told continuously until the present day. An image of Sīvali is placed at the entrance to the temple to worship. Within the temple grounds is also home to a Bangkok Local Museum, Bang Sue District. Behind the temple by Chao Phraya River, is also the location of the pier of the Chao Phraya Express Boat that operates from Wat Ratcha Singkhorn in downtown Bangkok to Nonthaburi province, with designated pier number N23. The striking clock tower is also located here. Since Wat Soi Thong is located by Chao Phraya River in the section it joins with canal Khlong Bang Son, thus causing the river in this area to be abundant with iridescent shark. Visitors can feed them with bread or fish food including being able to release fish for merit making as well. Two famous former preacher monks Phra Maha Paiwan Warawanno and Phra Maha Somphong Rattanawangso also lived in this temple. References
Wat Suthi Wararam

Wat Suthi Wararam (Thai: วัดสุทธิวราราม, RTGS: Wat Sutthi Wararam, pronounced [wát sùt.tʰí.wáʔ.rāː.rāːm]) is a private wat (Thai temple) in Bangkok, Thailand. Location The temple is located on Charoen Krung Road, Yan Nawa Subdistrict, Sathon District, near the Bangkok Fish Market Organization. History Originally called Wat Lao, this ancient temple was built during the Ayutthaya period. It remained deserted for a long time due to a lack of restoration. Later, in 1885 during the reign of King Rama V, Lady Sutthi, the wife of Chao Phraya Wichian Siri (Men Na Songkhla) requested royal permission from the King to restore the temple. The temple was then granted a wisungkhammasima (temple boundary stone). The King graciously renamed it Wat Suthi Wararam around the same year. The temple area measures approximately 9 m (29.5 ft) wide and 22 m (72.2 ft) long. Subsequently, Pan Watcharaphai, a daughter of Lady Sutthi, undertook further restoration of the temple. It later received continued maintenance and support from members of the Na Songkhla family, including Phraya Si Thammathibet (Chit Na Songkhla) and Phraya Manavaratsevi (Plot Wichian Na Songkhla). The temple is located in a low-lying plain that is prone to flooding. Within the temple grounds, there are several structures, including a Thai-style ordination hall, a wooden sermon hall, a bell tower, a crematorium, and a cemetery. In terms of education, the temple established a Buddhist scripture school and also contributed to national education by allowing a government secondary school to be established within its grounds (Wat Suthi Wararam School) in 1911.

Wat Nang Ratchaworawihan

Wat Nang Ratchaworawihan (Thai: วัดหนังราชวรวิหาร), usually shortened to Wat Nang (วัดหนัง) is classified as the third class abbey in royal temple within Ratchaworawihan classification. It is considered to be one of the famous temples in the Chom Thong neighbourhood, also formerly known as Bang Khun Thian, as well as Wat Ratchaorot, Wat Nang Nong, or Wat Sai. History and naming Wat Nang is an ancient monastery built by unknown local resident in the Ayutthaya period during the reign of King Thai Sa of Ban Phlu Luang house. The exact date as to when it was initially built is unknown since it was later abandoned for almost two centuries. Despite having become a royally patronize monastery, however, its original name is kept unchanged. One of the bells in the tower is an invaluable antique bell that can trace its roots back to year 1717 and it is a marvelous piece of work that is said to have been molded by a team led by Phra Maha Phuttarakkit and Muen Phetpitchit. During the early Rattanakosin period, Princess Sri Sulalai, mother of King Nangklao (Rama III) of Chakri house, renovated the entire temple with the exception of a few objects such as the principle Buddha image in the ubosot (ordination hall), three stone Buddha images in the vihara (sanctuary) and the bell. The temple renovation was celebrated in 1837. During the reign of King Chulalongkorn (Rama V) restoration was again carried out to improve the temple's state of preservation. The ubosot constructed with bricks and lime cement, has a three-tired roof. Inside the building there are paintings on the upper wall of falling floral motif. Enshrined in ubosot is the principle Buddha image named Luang Pho Sukhothai (หลวงพ่อสุโขทัย). It was made in the style of Sukhothai art cast in the suduing Mara position. In addition, the image of the late most revered legendary monk, Luang Pu Thuat is kept here. Its name Wat Nang literally "leather temple". The reason it got this name, believed that this is because in the past the temple grounds were used as a place to dry cowhides to be stretched out to make drumheads. Another explanation states that the area around the temple was a place for nang talung (shadow puppet) making. Wat Nang is also well known as a temple where a famous monk lived, Luang Pu Iam, otherwise known as Chao Khun Thao used to be an abbot before. He was a monk who was famous for his magic spells and the creation of various sacred objects during the reign of King Chulalongkorn. One of the most collectable relics and most holy item made by Luang Pu Iam is Phra Pidta Yanyoong Lae Pim Prakob. It is already one antique collector's most sought after items that are believed to possess magical powers which bring good fortune to the owners. Location The temple is lined on the northern bank of Khlong Dan canal opposite to Wat Nang Nong inside the Soi Wutthakat 42, Bang Kho, Chom Thong, Bangkok. References

Phramongkutklao Hospital

Phramongkutklao Hospital (Thai: โรงพยาบาลพระมงกุฎเกล้า) is a hospital located in Ratchathewi District, Bangkok, Thailand. It is a military hospital for the Royal Thai Army and a teaching hospital for Phramongkutklao College of Medicine which trains doctors for the Royal Thai Armed Forces, as well as the Royal Thai Army Nursing College. History After the Siamese revolution of 1932 which changed Thailand from an absolute monarchy into a constitutional monarchy, Maj. Luang Thurawaithayawiset, chief doctor of the forces based at Paruskavan Palace, sought to find a medical facility to treat and care for army soldiers and thus proposed to Col. Phraya Songsuradet to find a location. Three locations were surveyed: Phaya Thai Palace, Bang Khun Phrom Palace and the Army Survey Department. The location was finally settled at Phaya Thai Palace and King Prajadhipok approved of this project. Medical Corps Group 1 (Pak Khlong Lot) and Medical Corps Group 2 (Bang Sue) were then merged into the 'Bangkok Military District Medical Corps', with Lt. Col. Luang Winitwetchakarn as commander. The facility was opened on 26 November 1932 as the 'Bangkok Military District Medical Corps Division' and was attended by Gen. Phraya Phahonphonphayuhasena and was used as the headquarters for the medical corps. The facility was developed with assistance from the Faculty of Medicine, Chulalongkorn University and Faculty of Medicine Siriraj Hospital. By 1933, the name was changed to 'Military District 1 Medical Corps Division'. During World War II, the hospital was closed to general patient admissions and was used solely as a military hospital. After the war, the need for an improved quality of care as well as increased education for military medicine was highlighted. On 1 January 1946, the division became the 'Army Hospital' and operations were transferred directly to the Army Medical Department. The hospital also reopened back for public use. On 8 August 1952, the hospital was renamed 'Phramongkutklao Hospital', in following the name of King Vajiravudh, who had built Phaya Thai Palace. On 22 May 2017, Phramongkutklao Hospital was bombed, causing 21 injuries. This day was exactly three years after the 2014 Thai coup d'état.

Buddhistické texty

Buddhistické texty se dají roztřídit mnohými způsoby, avšak asi nejzákladnější rozdělení je na kanonické a nekanonické. Kanonické texty jsou trojího typu: Buddhovy promluvy (v sanskrtu sútra; v páli sutta) Mnišská pravidla (sa. i p. vinaja) Výkladové komentáře k nauce (sa. abhidharma; p. abhidhamma) Nekanonické texty jsou již od raných dob buddhismu významnou součástí buddhistických textů. Příkladem nekanonického textu může být Milindapaňha či Otázky Milindovy, i když se někdy uvádí jako součást některého z kánonů buddhistických škol.
Textos budistas

Textos budistas foram inicialmente transmitidos oralmente pelos monges, mas posteriormente foram escritos e compostos como manuscritos em várias línguas indo-arianas que foram então traduzidas para outras línguas locais à medida que o budismo se espalhava. Eles podem ser categorizados de várias maneiras. Os termos ocidentais "escritura" e "canônico" são aplicados ao Budismo de maneiras inconsistentes pelos estudiosos ocidentais: por exemplo, uma autoridade se refere a "escrituras e outros textos canônicos", enquanto outro diz que as escrituras podem ser categorizadas em canônico, comentário e pseudo-canônico. As tradições budistas geralmente dividem esses textos com suas próprias categorias e divisões, tal como entre Buddhavacana "palavra do Buda", muitos dos quais são conhecidos como "Sutras", e outros textos, tais como Shastras (tratados) ou Abhidharma. Esses textos religiosos foram escritos em muitos idiomas diferentes e escritas, mas memorizar, recitar e copiar os textos era de alto valor. Mesmo após o desenvolvimento da impressão, os budistas preferiram manter suas práticas originais com esses textos. Referências
Sarasin Bridge

Sarasin Bridge (Thai: สะพานสารสิน, RTGS: Saphan Sarasin, pronounced [sā.pʰāːn sǎː.rā.sǐn]) is a bridge in Thailand which connects the island of Phuket with Phang Nga in southern Thailand. It was built in 1951 and officially opened on July 7, 1967. It was the first bridge linking Phuket and Phang Nga, with a total length of 660 m (2,165.4 ft) and a total budget of 28,770,000 baht. It was named after Pote Sarasin, a former Prime Minister of Thailand, during his time as the Minister of National Development. On February 22, 1973, the bridge was the site of an unforgettable tragedy. Two young lovers, Dam Sae-tan and Kanchana "Gew" Sae-ngo, jumped from the bridge together after they were forbidden from being together. Dam was a local songthaew (local bus) driver and rubber tapping worker. He came from a poor family and struggled to make ends meet. Gew was a teachers college student who used to ride on Dam’s bus. Gew came from a wealthy family and was expected to marry someone who was also rich. As the two got to know each other, they began to fall in love. They sought Gew’s father’s blessing to get married, but he refused their plea and forbade them from seeing each other ever again. Their love having been stifled by Gew’s father, the couple decided that if they couldn’t be together in this life, then they would take their own lives. On the night of February 22, 1973, they bound themselves together with a loincloth and jumped from the Sarasin Bridge. The story of the two lovers is forever imprinted in Phuket’s collective memory. In the year 1987, the story was also made into a Thai film titled "Saphan Rak Sarasin" (สะพานรักสารสิน; Sarasin, The Bridge of Love, starring Chintara Sukapatana and Ron Banjongsang). Sarasin Bridge has since become a tourist attraction and is well-known in Phuket and Phang Nga. At present, Sarasin Bridge does not provide services for cars to run through as in the past. Since the construction of a new bridge adjacent named "Thepkasattri Bridge" (สะพานเทพกษัตรี, or popularly known as New Sarasin Bridge or Sarasin II Bridge) since 2011, Sarasin Bridge is only a pedestrian bridge with light poles and pavilions installed for sightseeing.

Bang Khun Phrom Palace

The Bang Khun Phrom Palace (Thai: วังบางขุนพรหม) is a former royal residence in Bangkok, Thailand. It served as the residence of Prince Paribatra Sukhumbandhu until his forced exile following the Siamese revolution of 1932. The palace is situated on the east bank of the Chao Phraya River, on Samsen Road in the Phra Nakhon District. It consists of two main buildings, the road-facing Tamnak Yai (main residence) and the river-facing Tamnak Somdet (residence of Queen Sukhumala Marasri, who was the Prince's mother). The main residence, designed by Mario Tamagno in neo-Baroque/Rococo style, was built in 1901 and 1902, while the Queen's residence was built around 1913 to designs by Karl Döhring in the Jugendstil or German Art Nouveau style. Following the revolution, the palace served as the site of several government offices, until it became the headquarters of the Bank of Thailand in 1945. It is now a historic site, and housed the Bank of Thailand Museum until 2017, when its main exhibition was moved to the Bank of Thailand Learning Center in the former bank-note printing-press building. The palace is a registered ancient monument, and received the ASA Architectural Conservation Award in 1993. In the Siamese revolution of 1932, Khana Ratsadon (people's party) seized the Royal Plaza and cut off all telecommunications after announcing its first manifesto. Some army forces invaded this site in order to control Prince Paribatra Sukhumbandhu, who served as the regent. At that time, he and his wife, along with a number of royal pages, were about to flee by boat from the pier behind the palace. References สุวรรณดี, จุรีรัตน์.
