"The only one in Siam, take the cable car to the temple."

📌Wat Niwet Thammaprawat, Bang Pa-in District, Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya Province🐾 A beautiful and old temple that has been in Bang Pa-in District for a long time. His Majesty King Chulalongkorn🙏 ordered its construction as a place for royal merit-making when he traveled to reside at Bang Pa-in Palace. It uses Gothic architecture and imitates Christian churches⛪ in its construction, which is a unique art that is built to fit in with Thai temples, making it look beautiful and giving the feeling of visiting France. The temple is located on an island in the middle of the water, opposite Bang Pa-in Palace. Therefore, to get to the temple, you have to take a floating cable car across the river to the temple, which is free of charge. However, you can put money in the box at the entrance to the cable car on the temple side for the temple to use as an electricity fee.⚡ The temple is beautiful, consisting of many buildings. Every angle is beautiful to take pictures of.📸 However, some parts of the temple are monks' quarters and cannot be entered because it will disturb the monks' activities.🤫 The main highlight💕 is the Ubosot, which is built in Christian style, imitating Gothic architecture, with a pointed dome tower like a temple. The dome has a clock tower and a set of bells. Above it is the enshrined relics of the Lord Buddha. Inside is the enshrined Phra Phutthanarumon, the principal Buddha image. 🙏🙏🙏 In the beautiful and pure chapel, he is sitting in a meditation posture. The interior walls and ceilings have very beautiful patterns. It is a perfect combination and meeting point of traditional Thai art and Western art. The windows are curved. The base of the altar where the principal Buddha image is enshrined is like the place where a cross is placed in a Christian church. It is very beautiful and impressive. 💕😍 ‐---------------‐----------------------------------------------------- The cable car opens from 5:30 to 21:00 every day.
