If we were to talk about the "most complete" temple in Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya, it would have to be "Wat Na Phra Meru" or Wat Na Phra Meru Ratchikaram. This temple is special above all others in the city island because it is the only temple that was not burned down when Ayutthaya fell for the second time, as the Burmese used it as a command post. As a result, the original architecture and Buddhist art have been passed down for us to see to this day. "Sookjai Weekend" would like to take everyone to experience the solemnity that has transcended hundreds of years here.
The highlight that is like a jewel of the temple is "Phra Buddha Nimit Wichitmar Moli Si Sanphet Borom Trai Lokanat," a Buddha image in the subduing Mara posture, most exquisitely adorned in royal attire. The beauty of the golden garments contrasts with the serenity of the face, creating faith for those who come to worship. In addition, inside the Ubosot, there are mural paintings that tell the story of the Buddha's history and ancient ways of life. Although faded over time, they still retain the masterly lines that are hard to find today.
Another story that makes mysterious travelers stop and listen is the legend of the "Curse of Wat Na Phra Meru." There is a story about King Mang Ra trying to use a cannon to fire into the island city of Ayutthaya from the area of this temple, but a miraculous event occurred: the cannon exploded, causing King Mang Ra to be seriously injured and die later. Many people believe that this is the sacred power that protects the temple and the land, becoming a solemn story that adds charm and makes tourists want to experience the real atmosphere for themselves.
The atmosphere around Wat Na Phra Meru is shady and peaceful. The sunlight shining on the arches of the glass pavilion and the wood carvings on the gable help create a photo angle that looks powerful and full of stories. This holiday, if you want to experience the perfect beauty of Ayutthaya and receive auspiciousness, try visiting Wat Na Phra Meru. I guarantee that you will receive "happiness" and a full bag of impressions. Follow the secret coordinates and good articles on the Sookjai Weekend website.
