Wat Lahan Yai

Wat Lahan Yai is a quiet temple just up the road from Wat Lahan Rai. It is known for it’s big sitting Buddha. It also has a beautiful raised Viharn decorated in red, gold, blue and white. It was closed when we visited and had the place to ourselves, so it was very peaceful.

I thought it was a real shame that this didn’t attract as many visitors as Wat Mahan Rai, because the site is quite compact and the Viharn is spectacular.
