Wat Phra Kraisi, Buddhist temple in Hua Mak, Thailand

The temple complex features three prominent stupas built in traditional Thai architectural style, with intricate decorations adorning the exterior walls.

Founded in the fifteenth century, the temple served as a ceremonial site for royal functions including funerals of the Siamese monarchy.

The three stupas within the temple grounds mark the final resting places of kings, reflecting Thai Buddhist burial traditions.

Visitors can access the temple grounds through guided tours, which include detailed explanations of the architectural elements and historical significance.

The temple structures maintain their original form despite the Burmese invasion of 1767, when many valuable artifacts were removed.
