Wat Chayamangkalaram, Thai Buddhist temple in Pulau Tikus, Malaysia
The Wat Chayamangkalaram temple features a 33-meter-long reclining Buddha statue covered in gold plating, making it a central element of worship.
Queen Victoria granted this land to the Thai community in 1845, leading to the construction of the temple during British colonial rule in Penang.
The temple serves as a center for Thai Buddhist celebrations, including traditional festivals such as Songkran and Loy Krathong throughout the year.
Located at 17 Lorong Burma near Gurney Drive, the temple welcomes visitors daily from 7:00 to 18:00 with free admission to all areas.
The reclining Buddha statue contains a columbarium within its base, storing the cremated remains of Buddhist devotees in numerous small chambers.
