Pahurat, on the edge of Chinatown, is the heart of Bangkok's
small but lively Sikh community. Within it stands this white

1932 and is the second largest of its kind outside India. On the
fourth floor is the congregation hall, and on the fifth an
international school. The top floor is the main prayer area, and
has a copy of Sikhism's holy book, the Sri Guru Granth Sahib,
interned on a flower-filled altar.
