Wat Phra Si Sanphet

Temple Views | Wat Phra Si Sanphet: There is an old idiom “let sleeping dogs lie”, tried my best to let these two lie without being disturbed but this was too cute of a shot to pass up, of course they woke up but not before I captured the moment. Sorry pups, that’s what you get for being so adorable.

Temple Views | Wat Pra Si Sanphet: One of the most beautiful sites in Ayutthaya and the holiest temple in Thailand’s ancient capital is Wat Pra Si Sanphet, also known as the Temple of the Holy, Splendid Omniscient. Built in 1351, it served as the temple of the royal family and no monks lived there as it was used exclusively for royal ceremonies. The most prominent structures on the site are the three Chedis which were destroyed along with the rest of the temple when the Burmese invaded in 1767. Restoration work begun in 1956, however only the three Chedis were restored. Without a doubt being built for a King, nothing was spared when it came to the beauty of this temple complex. By all means if you make it to Ayutthaya don’t miss visiting this temple, it’s absolutely wonderful!

Temple Views | Wat Pra Si Sanphet: Two of the magnificent Chedis on the temple grounds. Before becoming a temple, the grounds of Wat Pra Si Sanphet was the palace of King Ramathibodi I. In 1448 King Borommatrailokanat built a new palace to the north and the old palace grounds was converted into a holy site. Three Chedis were built in 1492 by the order of his son King Ramathibodi II with two of them used to house his ashes and the ashes of his brother, King Borommaracha III. It’s nice to be a King! I wouldn’t mind at all having something so grand dedicated to me when I pass. Oh the woes of not having blue blood.

From what I read, #Ayutthaya in #Thailand 🇹🇭 was the capital of #Buddhism in Southeast #Asia immediately before Bagan, Myanmar 🇲🇲 was. The Burmese invaded and sacked the city and used the looted wealth the fund the construction of Bagan’s thousands of pagodas.
