Making merit at a temple in Ayutthaya

Wat Tha Karong is an old temple since the Ayutthaya period. It is located on the bank of the Ban Tha River. It is a temple that you should visit to pay homage to the sacred Buddha image named "Phra Phutta Rattana Mongkhon" or "Luang Pho Yim". It is assumed that it was built in the early Ayutthaya period. The temple grounds are beautifully decorated with flowers and ornamental plants in a neat manner. There are also bathrooms that are so beautifully decorated that they won the national toilet of the year competition in 2006 in the temple and religious building category. The area behind Wat Tha Karong is a floating market. The products sold in the market are various types of food, including boat noodles, snacks #thailand and beverage shops such as coffee and iced tea in bamboo tubes, which look strange. Drinking it is refreshing. The food here is not expensive. The Wat Tha Karong floating market is open every Saturday - Sunday and public holidays. ##
