Wat Buppharam, an ancient temple in Trat that is more than just a place

Don't rush back when you visit Trat! Consider visiting Wat Buppharam, an ancient temple that has been a staple of Trat since the Ayutthaya period. King Taksin the Great even stayed here during his invasion of Chanthaburi. The temple grounds are incredibly peaceful, perfect for meditation, taking it easy, and slowly exploring the beauty of the ancient architecture, which remains pristine.

The temple houses an old chapel, a viharn, important Buddha images, and a museum showcasing ancient artifacts, including Buddha images and utensils from the past. It's like stepping back in time without a time machine.

For those seeking spirituality, history, or photography, this temple is a must-see. There are numerous photo opportunities, including the high-roofed viharn, carved woodwork, and the ancient Bodhi tree, all beautifully evocative of a story.

This temple is located near the city center, easily accessible, and free to enter. If you're visiting Trat, we recommend adding this to your list. Whether you're with family, friends, or simply enjoying a quiet, peaceful retreat alone, you'll find a truly tranquil atmosphere.
