#Wat Ratchaprasat Sathit Maha Simaram
📞Hello Hello, I heard and answered.
✨️Wat Ratchaprasat Sathit Maha Simaram is a first-class royal temple, a type of royal temple. King Rama IV built it according to ancient royal traditions and dedicated it to the monks of the Thammayut sect specifically.

✨️When it was first built, he was afraid that it would not be able to withstand the weight because it was a low-lying area and no piles were driven. He collected Chinese pottery jars and porcelain to fill the area.

✨️The doors and windows are inlaid with Japanese-style mother-of-pearl, which were repaired by real Japanese craftsmen.

✨️On both sides of the ordination hall, there is a prang-shaped castle. One side is a library, collecting scriptures. The other side houses a full-size statue of Richadan IV.

✨️The sala is currently under repair.

The temple is only open during the Buddhist prayers.
