Tai Hong Kong Shrine, the origin of the Por Tek Tung Foundation

#SongkranThip 326 Plabplachai Road, Pomprap Subdistrict, Pomprap Sattruphai District, Bangkok Although a long time has passed, the Chinese monk's way of helping the poor is still well-known. There are also replicas of his statue in many shrines in China. Fast forward to Thailand, in the heart of Yaowarat, an area where the first generation of Chinese people traveled across the seas with their mats and pillows to settle down. Not only did they bring necessary items, their descendants also brought the statue of Tai Hong Kong with them as a source of spiritual support when they were far from home. When the Chinese trade in the heart of Phra Nakhon flourished, the Tai Hong Kong Shrine on Plabplachai Road was built and has been around for over 111 years. It is the origin of the Por Tek Tung Foundation in Thailand.
