Sri Maha Mariamman temple: The most respected Indian temple Did you ever notice that where there's an Indian community, there has to be Sri Maha Mariamman temple, and this is no exception for Bangkok. For Bangkok people, Sri Maha Mariamman temple is more known as Wat Khaek Silom. This southern Hindu Indian temple was constructed by the Indian immigrants in Silom around 1879. In the early years, worshipping Goddess Uma at the temple was restricted only for Hindus. Presently, the temple is open for any worshippers even tourists. There is also a yearly festival at the temple around October with a parade of Goddess Uma along Silom and Sathorn roads. If you want to see more of the Indian culture in Bangkok beyond the Erawan shrine and Pahurat market, make a visit to Sri Maha Mariamman temple.
