Wat Khun Inthapramun An ancient temple built in the Sukhothai period. It is assumed from the remains of bricks along the original boundary that it was one of the largest temples in the past. It is home to a large reclining Buddha statue called Phra Si Mueang Thong, measuring 50 meters (25 wa) long from the tip of the crown to the tip of the feet. It was originally enshrined in the chapel, but was destroyed by fire during the first fall of Ayutthaya. Only the Buddha statue remains, exposed to the sun and rain, in the open for hundreds of years. The Buddha statue is similar in shape and size to the reclining Buddha in Chaksi, Singburi Province. It is assumed to have been built in the same period. The reclining Buddha statue has beautiful features, a smiling face, and is calm and cool, worthy of respect and worship. Inside the temple, there are the remains of the ancient temple of Luang Pho Khao, of which only the base, some walls, and the Buddha statue remain. As for the multipurpose hall, there is a shrine to the statue of Khun Inthapramun and a human skeleton, excavated in the area of ​​the reclining Buddha chapel in 1998. It is lying face down with its hands and feet tied behind its back. Some believe that it is the skeleton of Khun Inthapramun, while others say it is not. It is assumed from the history that he was a tax collector who built the reclining Buddha statue by embezzling government money to build it as a religious site. When the king found out, he asked where the money came from to build it. Khun Inthapramun refused to tell the truth because he was afraid that the merit would go to the king, so he was whipped to death. This became the origin of the name 'Wat Khun Inthapramun'. #thailand #beautifultemplesinThailand

Abandoned church in the Bodhi tree, Wat Sangkratai, Ang Thong Unseen. Ang Thong Wat Sangkratai is abandoned because the monks in the temple fought until the temple was abandoned. Wat Sangkratai or originally Wat Samkratai, has a story that "Taw Ti Chanthanasewi", the mother of Phraya Hasakan, was the builder since before the Ayutthaya period, approximately 400 years ago. At that time, it was an ordinary temple with monks. But because of the curse of this plot of land, the monks in this temple often fought each other, until the villagers were fed up and did not have faith. When the villagers did not have faith, they did not come to make merit. The monks could not stay. This temple was therefore abandoned. Later, the villagers built a new temple called Wat Pailom, which was nearby. They came to dismantle the wood from Wat Sangkratai to build the monks' huts and the pavilion in the newly built temple, leaving Wat Sangkratai with only one abandoned church. After being abandoned for a long time until it became a dense forest, there were still villagers who asked to use it to farm and garden in some areas of the temple. The church is a church made of bricks and plastered with cement. In the present state, there is no roof but the shade of the Bodhi tree acts as a natural roof. The four walls of the church are still intact. There are windows with only wooden frames, but some are assumed to have been re-inserted to make the church walls stronger. There are large Bodhi trees growing at the four corners of the church walls and the roots of the Bodhi trees have caught the church walls to prevent them from falling down. Therefore, it can be seen that the church is held up by the four Bodhi trees, which is a miracle. This abandoned church survived because of the four Bodhi trees. Wat Sangkratai has been renovated to be a tourist attraction, but it is still in its original condition, but it has been made stronger and cleaner. Inside the church is divided into three parts. The front room enshrines Luang Por Kaen. Villagers say that Luang Por Kaen was not originally here but was renovated and restored by bringing the Buddha's head that was cut from Wichian Chai. (There is a story that a thief stole the head of Luang Por from a temple in Wichian Chai, but for some unknown reason, he left it in the grass at Wat Sangkratai. When the villagers found it, they brought it to the church.) Later, the Buddha's head was restored and molded into the Buddha image as seen today. However, the principal Buddha image inside the chapel is Luang Pho Wan Dee, with Luang Pho Sri and Luang Pho Suk.

Phra Tamnak Kham Yat, Ang Thong Let me tell you a little bit of history. Phra Tamnak Kham Yat is important in Thai history. King Uthumporn came to be ordained at Wat Pho Thong, which he saw as a suitable place for living and seclusion. During the Ayutthaya period, there was news of a struggle for the throne, but King Uthumporn did not want to be the ruler of the city. He came to be ordained at Wat Pho Thong and used Phra Tamnak Kham Yat as a place for seclusion. Phra Tamnak Kham Yat is the only historical site in Ang Thong Province. It is another historical site worth visiting in Ang Thong. The palace is beautiful, but it may have deteriorated over time. The surrounding atmosphere is quiet. In front, there are two old ladies who suggested that we bring incense to worship. The atmosphere looks lonely, indescribable. It's a shame that the surrounding area is still quiet and there aren't many tourists. #Phra Tamnak Kham Yat #Pai Travel #Visit Ang Thong #Historic Site #Kham Yat

Eat simple, homely food. Atmosphere - The restaurant is a house by the Chao Phraya River. There are seats in straw huts on the opposite side. There are only four huts, but the restaurant has fans to blow air. The food at the restaurant is local Thai food from the upper central region. The special menu is the menu cooked with freshwater fish from the river basin in the area, such as the Thepo, Takok, Sangkawad, Pla Nuea On, etc. The owner takes good care of the customers. He provides fans to serve the food. He also advised us that the fish we ordered in Tom Yum has a lot of bones, but we still ordered it because we wanted to eat it casually. In addition to the local Ang Thong menu, there are also general Thai dishes. Price - Today, we ordered 4 dishes. The dishes are very large. The price is reasonable. The restaurant closes quite early.
