Any buddhist temples in Bangkok with meditation/Dhamma talk in English ?
The International Buddhist Meditation Center at Wat Ratchanatdaram on Ratchadamnoen Klang Road does evening meditation and Dhamma talks in English on Saturdays, usually around 6pm. It's a smaller group than Wat Mahathat and the monks there tend to go deeper into practical application rather than just the basics. I'd take a tuk-tuk from Khao San Road, it's about five minutes and shouldn't cost more than 60 baht.
Wat Mahathat near the Grand Palace runs a daily meditation session at 7am and 1pm in English. It's free and led by monks, though it's quite basic. I'd say it's a good intro if you're new to this.
For something outside a temple, check out the World Fellowship of Buddhists off Sukhumvit 24. They host Thursday evening Dhamma talks in English, usually with a visiting teacher. It's less touristy and more discussion-based than Wat Mahathat.
best som tam in Bangkok? Krua Dok Mai Kao 2026
yeah Krua Dok Mai Kao is solid but if you're up for a detour, try Som Tum Nua near Siam Square. their som tam pu pla ra is insane if you like the fermented fish sauce kick. way more pungent than the On Nut spot, just less grilled chicken options
