Wat Phra Ram

Wat Phra Ram is a restored Buddhist temple ruin located in the Ayutthaya Historical Park in Pratu Chai Subdistrict, Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya, Thailand. Built in 1369 by King Ramesuan on the cremation site of his father King Ramathibodi I, it is noted for its central Khmer-style prang, surrounding chedis, and location beside Bueng Phra Ram lake. As part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site, it represents classic early Ayutthaya architecture.

Visitors can expect a large, open temple compound centered on a tall Khmer-style prang on a raised base, surrounded by smaller chedis, ruined viharns, cloister walls and ponds. The site is set beside Bueng Phra Ram lake within the Ayutthaya Historical Park, with grassy grounds, ancient brickwork and stucco remains. Visitors can walk around the central prang, explore the outer galleries and courtyards, view restored Buddha images, and take photographs of the historic architecture in a park-like setting.
