Description: |
|
This deserted temple is located on U-Thong Road, west of the Hua
Ror market. Its present day boundary extends right to the base
of the road. In fact, one of its chedi stops right before the
pavement begins, and motor vehicles actually curve around it.
As a restored ruin, Wat Khun Saen has many of its structures
remaining. Its highlight is a been expanded over the years,
which creates the unique appearance of a small chedi being
consumed by a larger one. The view from the chedi’s western side
provides an idea about how these temples were sometimes expanded
over preexisting structures. In situ, there is also the basic
foundation of a sermon hall, which includes pieces of Buddha
images and some sema stone. Portions of a wall can be seen
surrounding the monastery. Traces of several small chedi can
also be seen on the premises, including the one located right
next to U-Thong Road. There are a number of large and
interesting Bodhi tree on site.
