Description: |

Next to Wat Chong Kham is Wat Chong Klang where a replica of the
Phra Phuttha Sihing is installed on an altar. There are several
interesting items such as wooden figurines of human and animals
depicted in the Phra Vejsandon Jakata (pronounced Cha-dok which
means one of odd stories of former incarnations of the Buddha)
created by Burmese craftsmen and brought over in 1857, painting
on glass about the Jakata and on Prince Siddhartha, as well as
on the ways of life of the time. The captions are in Burmese.
There are also notations that the paintings were by Thai Yai
artisans from Mandalay.
