Apart from Wat Pa Lelai Worawihan that I presented to you via my previous post, Wat Phai Rong Wua is another temple that I would like to recommend you to visit. This is one of the famous temples of Suphanburi, Thailand, too! There are many Buddhist sites which are very interesting.
Wat means temple
Phai means bamboo
Rong Wua means the place where people keep their cows (Wua means cow)
In the old days, this area was bamboo forest and people usually kept their cows there. This temple was named after this…
The temple is situated in a very large area. You can walk around with fun and no boring because there are many statues which are amazing! Besides, all architectures here also are elaborate.
In the first picture, you will see the largest stucco Buddha image in the world. I think this is the symbol of this temple. You can see the Buddha image from the far distance…. Ah! Amazing sun!
The following picture is a pagoda which is simulated from Buddhathaya, India. It’s the place where our Buddha had enlightenment in India.
The below picture is the birthplace of the Buddha at Lumpini Park. It’s simulated from India, too.
You will see beautiful architecture of the old buildings.....
The picture below is the biggest gong in the world.
There are a lot of bells over there.
And many statues of monks!
There is a fish pond and you will see cute turtles like this one….. Here, I think you will enjoy feeding them!
The below dog is lying comfortably on the ground in this temple. She looks so kind. We usually call those dogs that live in the temple as “Mah Wat” or the dog of the Wat.
As you can see, Wat Phai Rong Wua is not only the place where you can worship the Buddha images, but it also a place where you can relax with those amazing things and beautiful nature!
You are all welcome! ;))
