Wat Phra Boromthat Worawihan, Buddhist temple complex in Chai Nat, Thailand.
Wat Phra Boromthat Worawihan is a Buddhist temple centered around a large stupa that rises above the compound. The grounds feature traditional Thai architecture with decorated pillars, carved details, and tiered roofs throughout various buildings and structures.
This temple was founded during the Ayutthaya Kingdom period and has remained a place of religious devotion for centuries. The central stupa holds sacred Buddha relics and represents the continuity of Buddhist practice in this region.
The temple serves as a gathering place where visitors can watch locals leave offerings and pray throughout the day. People come here to show devotion and spend quiet time in a space that matters deeply to the community.
Wear clothing that covers your shoulders and knees out of respect for the sacred space. The grounds are open daily from sunrise to sunset and there is no entrance fee.
A sacred water source within the temple grounds was used during the coronation ceremony of King Rama X. This connection to Thai royal tradition gives the temple special importance beyond its role as a worship space.
