Wat Phra Non

Presentation Wat Phra Non

Thai name : วัดพระนอน

GPS : 16.49901113,99.51495409 (See on the map)

My opinion:

In Kamphaeng Phet Historical Park Arunyik area, Wat Phra Non is a pretty wide construction which remains are essentially a chedi restored in 2009 and most of the walls and columns of the main building. It is the only one temple in the park whose wihaan still has its four walls standing. It housed a reclining Buddha that totally disappeared today.
