1,300-year-old sandstone reclining Buddha

#Rainy season attractions When I had the opportunity to visit Angkor Wat in Cambodia, after returning, I became more interested in the ancient stone temples of Thailand. I started to study and find information, which led me to get to know the sandstone reclining Buddha from the Dvaravati period, which is 1,300 years old. This time, I finally had the chance to visit. It took me a while to get there, but the GPS took me into the forest. You may have to study the route again because the GPS has not been updated yet due to the construction of the high-speed railway. This reclining Buddha is considered the oldest reclining Buddha image in Thailand. It is 13.30 meters long and 2.80 meters high. This sandstone reclining Buddha is located at Wat Thammachakra Sema Ram, Tambon Sema, Amphoe Sung Noen. Originally, the area of ​​this temple was a religious site in the Dvaravati period. There is an important antique, a reclining Buddha image made of sandstone, which is the oldest and largest in Thailand. Inside the temple, there is also a pavilion built to store the ancient stone Dharmachakra and some fragments of antiques. #Reclining Buddha #Sacred things #Worship and ask for blessings #Ancient Buddha #
