Wat Phanan Choeng Worawihan is a famous temple located in Khlong Suan Phlu Subdistrict, Ayutthaya Province. It is an ancient temple and one of the most important temples in Ayutthaya. In particular, Luang Pho To or Chao Pho Sam Po Kong is a large Buddha statue in the Mara-Vijaya posture, which is considered the largest in Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya and is very famous.
Luang Pho To, a Buddha statue in the late U Thong art style in the Mara-Vijaya posture, sits in a cross-legged position, with a lap width of 14 meters and a height of 19 meters, beautifully lacquered and gilded. In addition, Luang Pho To is one of the most respected Buddha images among the Chinese people. It is called Sam Po Kong in Chinese, which is why many believers travel to pay homage.
In addition, there are 3 important Buddha images: a golden Buddha image, a cement Buddha image, and a naga Buddha image. The golden Buddha statue is a Sukhothai-style bronze Buddha statue with a lap width of 3 cubits and a height of 4 cubits. It is gold in color.
