Bodhi Tree | Wat Phra Sri Mahathat | Bangkok

The Bodhi tree was originally called ‘Assattha’. Until the Buddha became enlightened under this tree, Assattha was renamed “Bodhi”. The term “Sri Maha Bodhi Tree” is used to refer to the Bodhi tree where Prince Siddhattha sat and practiced to become enlightened as the Buddha. According to the records, the Sri Maha Bodhi tree is located on the bank of the Neranjara River in Uruvela Senanikom Subdistrict, Bodh Gaya City, which is about 3,000 kilometers away from Thailand. However, in Thailand, many places refer to the Bodhi tree as the Sri Maha Bodhi tree. The Sri Maha Bodhi Tree at Wat Phra Sri Mahathat, Bang Khen, has 2 trees. It is believed that they were planted during the time of Prime Minister Field Marshal P. Phibunsongkhram and another tree by His Excellency U Nu, Prime Minister of Burma in 1955.
