“Outdoor reclining buddha statue”

Wat Lokaya Sutha is situated to the west of the Ayutthaya Grand Royal Palace.  No evidence has been found to indicate when it was built.  Only comparative study of art style of the temple main prang reflects early period of Ayutthay arts.

In front of the main Prang to the east locating with groups of Vihara buildings while behind the Prang is the Ubosot building being surrounded with gallery and the Ubosot itself is also decorated with chedis at four corners.

The main shrine of this temple here is a brick and mortar image of Reclining Buddha in Ayutthay Style.  The Buddha image is about 42 meteres long and 8 meters high.  It underwent a restoration in A.D. 956. This Buddha image is under the vihara roof.  But only octagonal pillars are left over.


Travel all year around.
