Ayutthaya

Wat Mae Nang Pluem

Also located outside the old city of Ayutthaya and the island, this temple is a real treat.  Both, Viharn and Ubosot contain beautiful seated Buddha images. The plain wall in both buildings allows full focus on the Buddha images. Behind the old Viharn is a large bell-shaped chedi which still contains some lion statues at it's base. When we visited during Visakha Bucha Day, bus-loads of of school classes where dropped off here, turning this normally quiet temple into a busy scene.
