Wat Sri Sawai

#GetDiscountsWithoutLuck Wat Sri Sawai is one of the most beautiful and valuable ancient sites in Sukhothai Historical Park. Its highlight is its three elegantly lined Khmer-style chedis. It is assumed that it was originally a Brahmin-Hindu temple before being transformed into a Buddhist temple during the Sukhothai period. Its antiquity and eclectic architecture give this temple a unique charm. The surrounding area also contains traces of laterite walls and ruins, which tell profound stories of the past. The tranquil atmosphere, surrounded by nature, allows visitors to experience both devotion and mystique. Wat Sri Sawai is not only a historical tourist attraction, but also a symbol of the glory of Sukhothai civilization, a must-see at least once. #Wat Sri Sawai #Sukhothai #SukhothaiHistoricalPark #TravelThailand #HistoricalSite #Sukhothai #Thailand #AmazingThailand #BeautifulTemplesAroundThailand #HistoricalTourism

#Get a discount without relying on luck# Wat Sri Sawai is located about 350 meters south of Wat Mahathat. This important ancient site is located in the glass wall. It consists of three prangs in the Lopburi art style. The prangs are quite slender and located on a low base. Some of the stucco patterns resemble those on Chinese porcelain. During the Yuan Dynasty, a lintel carved with the image of Narayana reclining on the ocean was found, parts of idols, and a lingam, showing that it was once a Hindu temple. It was then converted into a Buddhist temple by adding a chapel at the front, and later became a Buddhist temple. Wat Sri Sawai was originally a Brahman or Hindu temple. It is a three-tiered Khmer prang with a moat surrounding the three prangs. This ancient site originated from the Khmer castle style, but it has been modified from the original, for example, the decorative parts of the Khmer castle called banthaeng have become jackfruit petals, and the stucco decorated with jackfruit petals in the shape of Garuda fighting the naga and angels. The prang of Wat Sri Sawai is therefore different from the prangs of the Ayutthaya period, which are prototyped from. The prang in Khmer art is more similar to the Khmer style than the prang in the Sukhothai style.

Wat Sri Sawai is located in Sukhothai Historical Park, but it is different from other temples because inside there are three prangs in Lopburi art style. It looks like it used to be a Hindu temple before being transformed into a Buddhist temple by adding a chapel at the front. Walking around is quite shady and covered with many trees. This is another temple that if you come to visit the historical park, you should definitely stop by and pay homage. #VisitHistoricalSite
