Description: |
|
Wat Phichai Puranaram is an active classic Buddhist temple in
the city of Uthai Thani. The temple was built in the Ayutthayan
era (1350-1767) and formerly known as Wat Krang. It underwent
several restorations, the latest in 1979. The original
characteristics have been kept. The temple area is cut in two by
the road leading into the city. The monks are residing on the
west side of the road. The old monastic area is on the east side
and contains an ordination hall and a vihara. Both the vihara
and the ubosot has a single porch with two entry doors. The
ubosot has a double tiered-roof and two exit doors at the rear,
while the vihara has a three-tiered roof with a single exit
door. The vihara has only air-vents and no windows, typical for
constructions of the early Ayutthaya period. It houses a
standing Buddha image called Phra Buddha Chaiyasit. |
