Wat Pichaiyat

Wat Pichaiyat

The large white Prang is visible from far and the original temple here already existed before Bangkok was founded. In 1841 a new temple was built and named Wat Phichayayatikaram Woravihara already . The monks in this temple are very happy to show visitors around, open the temple buildings and like to practice their English language skills. In the one of the towers next to the main prang is a large foot print of Buddha, decorated with the 108 signs of true faith.
