Wat Phra Phutthabat, Buddhist temple in Phra Phutthabat district, Saraburi, Thailand.

The temple features a two-level mondop structure containing the Buddha's footprint, protected by golden-decorated walls and intricate roof designs.

During the Ayutthaya period in 1624, a hunter discovered the sacred footprint mark in the mountain, leading King Songtham to establish this temple.

Buddhist pilgrims perform specific rituals at the footprint shrine, including three clockwise circumambulations while carrying incense, flowers, and candles.

The temple opens Monday through Friday from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM, with guided tours available in multiple languages at the entrance.

The Buddha's footprint measures 21 inches wide and 5 feet long, embedded in limestone rock and covered with gold leaf offerings.
