Description

Wat Singharam, or the Monastery of the Lion, is a restored ruin on Ayutthaya’s city island in the Pratu Chai Sub-district. The ruin stands on the premises of the Rajaphat Institute, south of Rojana Road.

The monastery stands opposite Wat Borom Phuttharam on the east bank of Khlong Chakrai Noi. The ruins of Wat Suan Luang Khangkhao are situated south of Wat Singharam on the same canal bank. The temple was built before Wat Borom Phuttharam.

The site consists of a sermon hall (vihara), two bell-shaped chedis, small chedis, and a mandapa. Its historical background and construction period are unknown.

It was possibly built in the middle Ayutthaya period and was restored in the late Ayutthaya period.
