Wat Uppanan Tharam, Buddhist temple in Khao Niwet, Thailand.

Wat Uppanan Tharam is a temple with traditional Buddhist structures, multiple prayer halls, and a prominent chedi as its focal point. Religious motifs and decorative patterns adorn the walls and grounds throughout the complex.

The temple was built following Buddhist architectural principles and has served as a religious center for local residents since its founding. It reflects the enduring importance of Buddhism in the region over time.

The temple serves as a gathering place where the community participates in meditation and prayer sessions led by monks. Visitors can observe how Buddhist faith is woven into the daily life of local residents.

Visitors should wear modest clothing that covers shoulders and knees, and remove shoes before entering buildings. It is important to remain quiet during prayer times and treat the space with respect.
