Wat Inthrawat

Wat Inthrawat is a Buddhist temple in Bang Ramat with traditional Thai design, featuring a viharn, open pavilions, and a mondop on its sacred grounds. The compound shows the typical layout of a Lanna temple with wooden structures and carefully arranged spaces for religious practice.

The site was founded in 1858 and represents a fine example of Lanna architectural style, with many original wooden structures surviving to this day. This age and state of preservation make it an important record of regional building traditions.

The temple displays intricate wooden carvings and traditional artistic elements, including Naga serpents guarding the entrance stairs to the viharn. These figures form part of the visual language through which visitors directly experience the spiritual purpose of the site.

Visitors can enter the temple daily from 6 AM to 5 PM without entrance fees, though donations support the upkeep of this religious site. Wearing comfortable shoes and modest clothing makes it easy to explore the different areas.

Inside the viharn, a central Buddha statue in the subduing Mara posture sits on an elevated pedestal against a gilded red lacquer wall. This artistic arrangement draws the attention of many visitors who often overlook such details.
