Wat Mahabut and the legend of Mae Nak
Article by Eric Lim
Wat Mahabut one of the 887 temples in Bangkok, is located in Phra Khanong to the east of the city center. In 1762, five years before the fall of Ayutthaya, a monk visited the villagers in Phra Khanong. As the village didn't have a temple, the villagers invited the monk to stay. They built a temple and named it after him. The monk's name was Phra Mahabut.A ride on a long tailed canal boat from the pier under the Phra Khanong Bridge
