The temple stands as a traditional Buddhist structure featuring multiple prayer halls, a prominent chedi, and decorated walls depicting religious motifs throughout its grounds.

Built according to Thai Buddhist architectural principles, Wat Uppanan Tharam has functioned as a religious center for local residents since its establishment in the region.
