Description: |
|
Wat Shipa Sitaram located at Narai Haharat road, Lopburi
province. It had been deserted archeology site for many years
then the venerable monk Sang restored and named Shipa Sitaram.
It’s presumed that the spherical pagoda shape with glass lotus
base was built in Ayutthaya period but now the top of pagoda
fell down and remains only the base. The Ayutthaya style hall of
temple is renovated in Rattanakosin period and you still see the
trace of mural paintings inside. Inside the temple, it
provides the medical treatment by herbal steam and traditional
massage. Now it opens the Thai traditional massage school in the
charge of the center of study and Thai traditional medicine. The
herb for treatment is also grown in the botanic garden of the
center. The Thai
traditional treatment in the temple is an idea of priest
Pipattanakorn, the abbot of Wat Shipa Sitaram. He has promoted
the course of 372 hours of Thai massage for becoming the
assistant of healer to the ministry of public health. The
temple opens every day from 8.30 to 16.30. Free entrance |
