Wat Yansangwararam
วัดญาณสังวรารามวรมหาวิหาร
A royal temple built to commemorate a Thai Supreme Patriarch. The grounds are very large, and buildings in Chinese, Thai, Indian, and other styles stand around the lake.
Wat Yansangwararam is a first-class royal temple in Thailand, built in 1976 with funding from Rama IX to commemorate a Supreme Patriarch of that time. The grounds lie on a hillside beside a lake and cover a wide area. They include a main hall housing a Buddha footprint, a Chinese-style pavilion, an Indian-style Buddha memorial building, and Swiss-chalet-style houses. A long bridge crosses the lake, and the setting is quiet. Admission is free, but dress modestly (covering shoulders and knees). The grounds are large, so drive or hire a car, and combine your visit with Viharn Sien (the Chinese Art Museum) across the way.
