The Bangpu Recreation is at the end of a long pier. This specific pier however is very long and there are a great number of seagulls flying overhead.
At one end there are also people selling food for you to feed them.
Someone also created a love heart of sticks in the water for the seagulls to sit on.
Getting to the end of the pier there was a very large restaurant - which was extremely popular - and we walked to the very end and chose not to eat there and ate elsewhere - Mae Cuisine.
We saw ศาลเจ้ามูลนิธิธรรมกตัญญู (เสียนหลอไต้เทียนกง / 暹罗代天宫) when were travelling to Samut Prakan.
Then when I began to try to find about it this I was quite struck with how little there was (or it was in Thai and/or Chinese). Apart from Richard Barrow who has also visited there.
The entrance is really quite un-dramatic.
Then on entering into an enormous courtyard the area is very large and the amount of buildings is extensive and off to the right is quite a large garden.
So we started in the gardens - beautifully maintained.
Even the lizard liked them.
The corridors blended with the garden.
Back into the main building - the corridors were immaculate.
and the areas between were immaculate.
And the doorways were exquisite.
The walk ways between some of the buildings were quite stunning.
Then the displays were very intricate.
Even the roofs were worth looking at.
Whilst you are looking up then their are some quite wonderful ceilings. This was certainly a wonderful Chinese Shrine to visit - thank you.
