Wat Worachet, Buddhist temple in Pratu Chai, Thailand.
This religious complex contains a large Khmer-style prang, multiple chedis with bell-shaped and pyramid designs, and two distinct sermon halls near the Lopburi River.
The temple's origins date to 1593, with records mentioning its involvement during conflicts between Thai and Burmese forces in the Ayutthaya period.
The temple features an active sermon hall constructed in 2009, maintaining Buddhist practices while preserving its ancient architectural elements from the late Ayutthaya period.
Visitors can explore both the restored ruins and the modern religious facilities, which include a shrine dedicated to King Naresuan and multiple ceremonial structures.
The temple demonstrates architectural evolution through different periods, with structures showing evidence of enlargement and modifications during the reign of King Prasat Thong.
