- True friend temple Wat Kalayanamit Varamahavihara is a Buddhist temple in Bangkok, Thailand. The temple is located in Wat Kanlaya sub-district, on the Thonburi bank of the Chao Phraya River at Ratchinee Pier. Wat Kanlayanamit was established by the prominent nobleman Chaophraya Nikonbodin & x28;also known as To, the ancestor of the Kanlayanamit Family& x29;, who served King Rama IV as the Interior Minister. During the reign of King Rama III, Chaophraya Nikonbodin donated his own house, including the land and bought additional land in the nearby area which was formerly called Kudi Chin & x28;Chinese monks’ dwellings& x29; Village as it used to accommodate Chinese monks, to build a temple in 1825. The temple was designated as a royal temple which King Rama III graciously named Wat Kanlayanamit & x28;meaning true friend& x29; due to the close tie between the King and the nobleman: one of Chaophraya Nikonbodin’s daughters was the King’s concubine. King Rama III also built a royal wihan & x28;preaching hall& x29; for the temple.,
