Description: |
|
Exquisite murals featuring stories of the 10 former incarnations
of the Lord Buddha decorate the walls of this temple’s
ordination hall, or Ubosot. The beautiful paintings are
attributed to an art school in MueangWiset Chai Chan, painted
during the late Ayutthaya period.
The murals share many characteristics with other
paintings made during the same era, such as those inside the
Ubosots of WatKo and WatYaiSuwannaram (in Phetchburi). The
ancient temple is located at Mu 8, TambonSanchaoRongthong, near
WatWiset Chai Chan, which is 12 kilometers from AmphoeMueang.
To get there, follow Highway No. 3454 for approximately 1
kilometer. The temple is open daily from 8.00 am-5.00 pm.
