Wat Khruea Wan Worawihan, Buddhist temple in Bangkok Yai district, Thailand
Located near the Chao Phraya River, Wat Khruea Wan Worawihan features traditional Thai temple architecture with ornate decorations and multiple prayer halls.
The construction of Wat Khruea Wan Worawihan began during King Rama III's reign by Chao Phraya Abhaibhuthorn, who passed away before its completion.
This registered Thai historic site serves as a center for Buddhist ceremonies, including regular cremation services for the local community.
The temple remains open to visitors throughout the day without entrance fees, though guests need to wear clothing that covers shoulders and knees.
The temple's position near Wat Arun allows visitors to combine both locations in one trip while experiencing different aspects of Thai religious architecture.
