See a 350-year-old temple from the Ayutthaya period in Nonthaburi. There's something like this too!

📍Wat Chomphu Wek, Nonthaburi Province The highlight of the temple is the original Ubosot area, Maha-ut style, with powder-colored murals by the Nonthaburi school of craftsmen during the middle Ayutthaya period. There is a picture of Mother Earth squeezing her hair, which is the most beautiful in the world. Information recorded by Professor Aphorn Na Songkhla, an expert at the Fine Arts Department At the back, there is a similar-looking chapel, but the walls of the chapel are vertical, the roof has no awning, and no porch. There are doors at the front and back, the pediment, and the arches of the doors and windows are decorated with stucco plant patterns in a Western style. That's why it's called "Western chapel". This temple was built by the Mon people during the reign of King Narai the Great (2225-2300 B.E.) *According to the reference documents in the Muang Boran book, Wat Chomphu Wek is located on a high, quiet hill, so it was named "Wat Chomphu Wiwek". As time passed, the word "Wi" was shortened, leaving only the name "Wat Chomphu Wek". • We traveled by private car. There is a parking lot. • There is no entrance fee. #Winter attractions #VisitNonthaburi #Worship and ask for blessings #Places to visit near Bangkok #Historical places to visit
