Description: |
|
Wat Thung Si Mueang was constructed during the reign of King
Rama III (1824-1851) to houses a replica of Buddha’s footprint.
Aside from that, the most beautiful structure in the temple is
perhaps the wooden Tripitaka Library (Ho Trai) that was designed
to sit on the stilts in the middle of the pool to prevent the
materials from insects (ants and termites). The architecture
here is a mixture of Laos and rattankosin styles (Rattanakosin
refers to the era after 1782, when Bangkok was the capital of
Thailand). Next to the Tripitaka Library is the Ho Phra Buddha
Bot and the Wihan (ordination hall).
