Wat Worapho, Buddhist temple ruins in Pratu Chai, Thailand
The temple complex consists of an ordination hall with sema stone foundations and contains multiple Buddha statues within its decorated walls.
King Borommakot renamed the temple from Wat Rakhang to Wat Worapho in the 18th century following the return of monks from Sri Lanka.
The interior walls of the temple display painted murals depicting various scenes from Buddha's life, representing traditional Thai Buddhist artistry.
The temple grounds can be accessed through U-Thong Road, with the active monastery separated from the historical ruins by a protective fence.
The temple received a special Bodhi tree sprout from Sri Lanka during diplomatic exchanges, marking its significance in Thai-Sri Lankan religious relations.
