Thai Temple Wat Buddharam in Wanstead,East London

My video essay of a visit to the Thai Temple Wat Buddharam in Wanstead,East London on the 1st May 2010.

This is a lovely temple situated in a normal suburban house.The four monks who live there are very friendly and speak good English - always worth a visit and if you go at the weekend at 11.00 am you will be able to partake in delicious Thai food offered to the monks once they have finished their main meal of the day.

Wat Buddharam was set up in 2005 to
serve the large number of Theravada Buddhists
in East London and surrounding areas.

Head Monk Somchei Wirarwat is the Abbott of the Temple , who follows 227 commandments as part of his strict Buddhist lifestyle.



The inspiring quotes are from the Buddha and the music is by Blank and Jones Chilled Cream.
