Wat Worachettharam, also known as "Wat Worachet Nai Ko", is an abandoned temple located on the island of Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya, near the ancient palace. The temple is historically significant as it is believed to be the place where the royal cremation of King Naresuan the Great took place and where his royal remains are enshrined.
In the evening, Wat Worachettharam has a peaceful and beautiful atmosphere. The sunlight through the ruins of the old pagoda and temple creates beautiful shadows and light, perfect for taking pictures and walking around to experience the tranquility of the place. Although the temple is in a deserted state, it still has interesting architectural elements such as a large bell-shaped pagoda and a temple with a pediment decorated with pottery, reflecting the art of the middle Ayutthaya period.
If you are looking for a quiet and historically significant place in Ayutthaya, Wat Worachettharam is an interesting option that will allow you to experience the beauty and tranquility of the past.
