Presentation Wat Kamphaeng Laeng

Thai name : วัดกำแพงแลง

GPS : 13.10555089,99.95637059 (See on the map)

My opinion:

Wat Kamphaeng Laeng is an ancient Khmer temple, sanctuary in Hinduism from which it doesn't remain much and was converted into a Buddhist temple as, it was often the case in Thailand, adding a classic and modern building with a lovely golden sitting Buddha. One of the four ruined prang remaining from the Khmer building houses a refined reclining Buddha.
