Wat Khuha Sawan, Buddhist temple in Phasi Charoen District, Bangkok, Thailand

Wat Khuha Sawan features traditional Thai wood-carved gable patterns on both the front and back of the ubosot, reflecting Ayutthaya period craftsmanship.

The temple transformed from Wat Sala Si Na to Wat Khuha Sawan during King Rama I's reign, when the principal Buddha image Luang Pho Phong underwent restoration.

Red sandstone sema stones mark the temple boundaries while preserving late Ayutthaya period artistic elements, combined with modern features in the sema arch.

The temple complex stands near Khlong Bangkok Yai canal, allowing visitors to observe its architecture from boats passing along the waterway.

A large bronze Buddha image originally housed at this temple now resides at Wat Pho on Rattanakosin Island, connecting these two significant religious sites.
