Pay homage to the Sukhothai Buddha statue, which is more than 700 years old.

#GetDiscountWithoutLuck ðŸĄWat Pariwas Ratchasongkhram, originally named Wat Pariwas, is believed to have been built in the late Ayutthaya to early Rattanakosin periods. It was originally just a monastery or a small temple in the middle of a garden. The name of the builder is unknown. 🏠During the reigns of King Rama II and III, Phraya Phetphichai (Ket) and Phraya Ratchasongkhram (That), the chiefs of the construction of Phra Nakhon Khuen Khan (Phra Pradaeng), saw that Wat Pariwas, which was on the opposite bank of the river, was in a dilapidated state. So they brought the remaining materials to renovate it and named it Wat Pariwas Ratchasongkhram. Important and interesting things in the temple are as follows: 🏠 The new Ubosot, Vihara, and Vihara built in 2008 are architecturally unique. They are Benjarong stucco sculptures, which are contemporary international works of art. 🏘 Although contemporary art is used for decoration, it does not abandon the main concept of the belief in Mount Sumeru and the Buddhist philosophy found in the Traibhumi. ðŸ™ðŸ―Inside the chapel is the principal Buddha image, a Sukhothai Buddha image that is over 700 years old. 🛕Pavilion of Luang Pu Wong 🏕A small chapel with a replica of the Buddha's footprint, built in 1922 â™ĻïļWat Pariwas Ratchasongkhram: 734 Phra Ram 3 Road, Bang Phong Phang Subdistrict, Yan Nawa District, Bangkok ðŸŽŊCoordinates: https://maps.app.goo.gl/e7jh92xs3V5XJMnq5 🕕Opening - closing hours: 06.00 - 18.00 hrs. #Bangkok #VisitBangkok #BangkokAttractions
