Visit Wat Phra Non (Phrae)
Overview Wat Phra Non
- Thai name : วัดพระนอน
- GPS : 18.14406759,100.13494134 (See on the map)
- My opinion :
If you are looking for accommodation near Wat Phra Non, see this list of hotels near Wat Phra Non.
Like all temples in Thailand who are called like this, Wat Phra Non houses a reclining Buddha. Hidden in a small building at the back of the complex, this golden Buddha is not impressive by its size (9 meters long) but amazing for its fine decoration including the design of the clothes.
The main wihann built more than two centuries ago, is an example of the typical architecture style of Phrae. Its beautifully gold and red decorated pediment and his roofs are just magnifiscent.
Wat Phra Non is not far from Wat Luang or Wat Pong Sunan. We advise you to plan a small circuit in Phrae that visit at least these three temples.
