Pay homage to Luang Pho Dam at Wat Thong Bang Ramat

ðŸĄ Wat Thong Bang Ramat was established in 1759. It is sometimes referred to as Wat Thong Chimphli to distinguish it from Wat Thong Bang Chueak Nang. Key highlights and attractions within the temple include: 🏠 The Ubosot: This is the original ordination hall. The gable of the front porch is adorned with stucco patterns of deities and vine motifs, likely renovated around 2004–2005 during restoration efforts that raised the entire structure by 2 meters to address flooding issues. 🏚 The Old Ubosot: Believed to have been restored during the reign of King Rama I, it houses the principal Buddha image in the Mara Vichaya posture. The face of the Buddha reflects the Rattanakosin style, though the statue is thought to be older and has undergone restorations that erased its original features. 🛕 The Prang: A small, slender pagoda with a lion base, entirely painted in gold. 🏕 The Viharn of Luang Pho Dam: Built in 1971, it enshrines Luang Pho Dam, a large stucco Buddha image in the Mara Vichaya posture. 🛖 The Old Sermon Hall: Located by the water, this two-story building features a traditional Thai wooden upper floor and a concrete lower floor. â™Ļïļ Wat Thong Bang Ramat: Located at Soi Borommaratchachonnani 63, Chimphli Subdistrict, Taling Chan District, Bangkok. ðŸŽŊ Location: https://maps.app.goo.gl/P5h5RtFLdEi4QxE37 🕖 Opening Hours: 07:00 – 18:00
