Wat Yai Chai Mang Khon, Ayutthaya

4.4

Dating back to the 14th century, Wat Yai Chai Mang Khon remains one of the city's most famous and scenic holy sites. This magnificent example of Buddhist religious architecture was built by Uthong, the first ruler of the kingdom of Ayutthaya. Expanded and adorned with new buildings over the centuries, the religious complex is now famous for its imposing chedi--a large statue of reclining Buddha--and many other architectural features, as well as the peaceful and meditative atmosphere. Consider a guided tour of the complex, within easy reach from Ayutthaya city. Plan your visit to Wat Yai Chai Mang Khon and a wealth of other attractions, well-known and undiscovered, using our Ayutthaya attractions website .

門を入って左側の壁の裏側に涅槃像があります。僧侶の方も前で記念撮影をしていたので驚きました。足の裏に1バーツコインを張り付けることが出来ると願いが叶うそうです。私もチャレンジしましたが残念ながら張り付きませんでした。 more »

Enter the gate and there is a Nirvana statue on the back of the left wall. I was surprised that the priest also took a commemorative picture in front. I hear that I can put a baht coin on the back of the foot and wish come true. I tried to challenge myself, but unfortunately I did not.

かなり巨大な仏塔の中を登ることができるアユタヤの寺院です。段差のある階段が続くので、そこそこ体力が必要です。 more »

It is a temple in Ayutthaya where you can climb quite a huge pagoda. Because the stairs with the step continues, it is necessary to have decent physical strength.

The place has been carefully restored. The grounds are well kept and there are many things to see. Take time to climb the temple. The reclining Buddha also looks amazing. more »
