Visit Wat Phai Lom (Chanthaburi)
Presentation Wat Phai Lom
g_translate Thai name : วัดไผ่ล้อม
reviews My opinion:
starstarstarstar
The main attraction of this temple from the Ayutthaya period is its large golden reclining Buddha. Lying in the main building which has a quite sober facade it is him that attracts visitors. For the rest, opposite the main Wihaan with the Buddha there is a small pond with a round building.

Be careful, sometimes the doors of the building which houses the statue of the reclining Buddha are closed. If this is the case, try to find a monk and ask him if the temple is closed. In general, they spontaneously offer to open the doors for you.
