There is no nearest temple. Most of the temples is across the river, can take taxi. Most famous one is grand palace, wat pho and wat arun.

Knee length is ok, there are a lot things to see and buy in Chinatown.
Day time got more to see and buy.
Night time mainly for foods

If you are going to Amphawa floating market, you can take the river cruise at 50B per pax. This tour will bring you to various temples.

There're various small temples in Bangkok.

There's a small one near Siam BTS. Wat Pathum Wanaram.
