Wat Lao Thammaram — Attraction in Phoenix

A lovely place that is a monastic community and gathering place that serves the small but tightly-knot Lao and Thai-Isan people in Phoenix - who gather to observe their Buddhist faith and celebrate their cultural heritage. During the cooler months, there are bustling marketplaces where delicious eats can be bought, and there is always some kind of community function going on. For those who are interested in Buddhism, literature is available; as is someone who speaks English who can help explain the tenets and doctrine of the Lord Buddha. This Wat (temple) is a charming place and a testament to the religious and cultural diversity present...

Been coming as a kid . Every year for new years our water festival. We are truly lucky to have this place inhave also checked out the new Laveen location as well...

I grew up going to this temple as a kid since I was 7 years old with my mom! I’m now in my 30s and still practice the traditions! Love the food vendors!...
