If we talk about the coordinates of Mhu in the Talat Noi area, which is full of sacredness and beautiful views of the Chao Phraya River, "Rong Kuak Shrine" or Huntek Chun Ong Shrine is a place that should not be missed. This shrine is an ancient Chinese architectural building built by the Hakka Chinese, with a history of over a hundred years. The name "Rong Kuak" comes from the fact that in the past, this area was a large shoe production area, so people have called it that ever since.
The question that many people wonder is, "What do they worship here?" The main deity of this shrine is "Huntek Chun Ong" or the God of Fortune, who is a sacred deity and is highly respected by Thai people of Chinese descent, especially in terms of being a protective and blessing god. In addition, inside the shrine, there are other important deities such as Guan Yin and the God of Wealth (Chai Xing Yeh) for visitors to pay respects to enhance their prosperity in one place.
For "praying", most people like to pray for luck and success in business, as it is believed that he will grant wealth and help make trade negotiations smooth. It is also outstanding in praying for safety and good health. The current atmosphere of the shrine is open to the cool river breeze. There is a wooden balcony by the water where we can sit and relax, watching cargo ships and the Chao Phraya Express Boat, making your holiday full of happiness and merit at the same time.
Traveling to Rong Kuak Shrine is easy by walking along the alleys in the Talat Noi area (Soi Wanit 2), where you will find Street Art and the traditional way of life of the Talat Noi people. Anyone who wants to recharge their positive energy and pray for this year to be even better, don't forget to include Rong Kuak Shrine in your holiday trip. We guarantee that you will experience both the sacredness and the beautiful scenery beyond description.
