Wat Nang Phaya

Wat Nang Phaya in Phitsanulok Province can be called a neighboring province of Wat Phra Phuttha Chinnarat. This temple is called Wat Nang Phaya because according to history, the person who renovated the temple was a layperson who was a female lord of the North. The temple is located on the right side of Wat Phra Phuttha Chinnarat. This temple is considered one of the oldest temples in Phitsanulok Province. After traveling to Wat Luang Pho Phra Phuttha Chinnarat, we would like to recommend stopping by Wat Nang Phaya on the right. Behind the ordination hall, there is an old stupa of the temple. This temple also has Phra Nang Phaya for worship as an auspicious offering. #Get a discount without relying on luck

#Get a discount without relying on luck at Wat Nang Phaya, a famous temple in Phitsanulok Province. Built during the Sukhothai period, it is an important temple that is well-known among amulet gurus because it contains a supreme amulet, one of the Benjapakee set, called Phra Nang Phaya. The first discovery of the amulet crypt was in 1901. Phra Nang Phaya is renowned for its sacredness and reputation for its metta mahaniyom. Phra Nang Phaya is a baked clay amulet that combines Sukhothai and Ayutthaya styles. The amulet is triangular in shape with a prominent chest and graceful arms resembling a woman’s, hence the name “Nang Phaya.” She is also nicknamed the “Queen of Amulets,” a highly valuable amulet and one of the Benjapakee set. It is believed that whoever possesses Phra Nang Phaya will inspire those under their rule to revere her like she did. At present, amulets are considered very rare. Let’s take a look at the architecture of Wat Nang Phaya. It is estimated to be from the same era as Wat Ratchaburana, but the difference is that Wat Nang Phaya does not have an ordination hall. Only the viharn remains. Wat Nang Phaya is a temple in Phitsanulok Province, Thailand. Located on the east bank of the Nan River, Wat Nang Phaya borders Wat Ratchaburana. It is assumed that the Phra Nang Phaya amulet was created by Phra Wisutthikasatri, the consort of King Maha Thammaracha Thirat and mother of King Naresuan the Great. She commissioned the amulet during the renovation of Wat Ratchaburana, around 1547–1557, when Phitsanulok was a vassal state. Wat Nang Phaya was registered as an ancient monument on September 27, 1936. Only the viharn remains, now the ubosot (ordination hall), and two recessed chedis (stall-shaped chedis). The Phra Nang Phaya amulet is a renowned baked clay amulet and is included in the Benjapakee set.
