Wat Intharam Worawihan: The Royal Temple of King Taksin

🙏 Wat Intharam Worawihan, a third-class royal temple, is an ancient temple. 🏕 King Taksin of Thonburi highly revered and valued this temple. He restored and established it as a royal temple, using it for important royal ceremonies. ðŸŒģ Whenever he had free time from royal duties, he would stay at the temple to practice meditation. His bed, a significant relic, is now housed in the small vihara dedicated to King Taksin within the temple. 🙏 Most importantly, this temple is the burial site of King Taksin and his queen consort. 🙏 After the cremation, their ashes were enshrined in the Chedi Ku Chat. King Taksin's relics were placed inside a Buddha statue from his reign, located in the main vihara. 🙏 Additionally, the temple houses several other Buddha statues in various pavilions. ðŸ’Ĩ Wat Intharam Worawihan: Thoet Thai Road, Bang Yi Ruea Subdistrict, Thon Buri District, Bangkok 🌐 Location: https://maps.app.goo.gl/Y9fjMQB3candayTQ9 🕗 Opening hours: 08:00 – 17:00
