An ancient temple built in the early days of the Ayutthaya Dynasty, the temple enshrines this larger Buddha statue in Thailand. There is a statue of Kun Yin Bawen in front of the Buddha statue. It is said that he built this Buddha statue because of embezzlement of public funds. After being known by the emperor, he was whipped to death. . Every year on May 8th of the Thai calendar, the temple will hold a ceremony to worship Buddha. The Buddha statue is surrounded by a paddy field, which is spectacular from any angle. It is said that this Buddha statue is taller than the Statue of Liberty in the United States. There are also some interesting statues in the temple, which vividly represent the historical stories and some myths and legends at that time, which are very worth seeing.
Wat Muang is an ancient temple with the largest Buddha statue in Thailand. It is approximately 95 meters high, or equivalent to a 32-story building. Tourists like to come to pay homage and ask for blessings from the large Buddha statue and touch or feel the tip of the Buddha statue's finger to ask the Buddha to grant them blessings.

Wat Muang is a temple with a short name but has a very large Buddha image called Phra Phuttha Maha Nawamin Sakyamuni Si Wichian Chai Chan or the locals call it Luang Pho Yai. When worshiping Luang Pho Yai, we will put our head to touch the tip of his finger.

Wat Muang: Home to Thailand’s Largest Buddha and More
#thailandtrip #Watmuang #angthong #temple
Wat Muang in Ang Thong is not just famous for housing Thailand's largest Buddha statue, but it also offers a fascinating array of attractions that make it a must-visit. The massive seated Buddha, known as Phra Buddha Maha Nawamin, is awe-inspiring in size and detail, while the unique Glass and Mirror Temple nearby shimmers with beauty and houses a senior monk preserved in a glass casket. Outside the temple, the grounds are equally intriguing, with sculptures of gods, historical Thai kings, and vivid depictions of the Siam-Burma war. The blend of spirituality, history, and artistry makes Wat Muang a truly captivating destination.

We have been to this temple once before, but when we saw the picture taken from the northern gate of the temple, we saw a golden Buddha statue amidst lush green trees. It was a sight we wanted to see with our own eyes at least once. 🌟🌟🌟
Watmuang is located between Ang Thong and Wichian Chai. You can see the large Buddha statue, which is 93 meters high, from afar. In front is a rice field. There are many restaurants at the entrance. I guarantee you won't go hungry.
When you come, you must bow your forehead and touch the tip of your finger to "Phra Phuttha Maha Nawamin Sakyamuni Si Wichian Chai" as if asking for a blessing for you.
This temple also has a chapel surrounded by pink stucco lotus petals. It's a pity that it's not open.
There is a glass chapel, decorated with glass reflecting light.
You can see a replica of hell and many more.

The tallest sitting Buddha in Thailand
Wat Muang, the most famous attraction and temple in Ang Thong Province
It takes about 1 hour to drive from Bangkok Don Muang Airport to Ang Thong Province. The big Buddha temple, Wat Muang En, is located in the suburbs. You can see the golden Buddha from a distance. It is very spectacular. You need to take off your shoes before going up the stairs to enter the temple. Everyone must wait under the Buddha to touch the long fingers of the Buddha to pray for blessings. Many foreigners come here to worship, and they especially like to stand under the Buddha's hand. After praying, they stand on their heels and touch the middle finger or index finger of the Buddha with both hands.
The main hall uses a lot of glass lenses to assist in the design, giving the temple a special solemn atmosphere. There is also a statue of the Thousand-armed and Thousand-eyed Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva standing next to the main hall.
There are many statues of people passing through the Eighteen Layers of Hell near the temple. If you are not afraid, you can take some photos.
